Civilization and Its Discontented
French Far Eastern Policy in the 1930s
The completion in 1986 of the Documents diplomatiques français, 1932-1939 permits a review of French Far Eastern policy during that troubled time characterized by J.-B. Duroselle as 'la décadence.' This massive documentary collection, however, still dose not provide a full picture of the forces which shaped French East Asian policy in the years before the outbreak of the Pacific War. Understandably focused upon European developments, it begins an…

Lyonnais Imperialism in the Far East 1900-1938
Influential citizens of the French city of Lyon embraced the cause of expansion during the nineteenth century. Religious zeal led to the founding of the Oeuvre de la Propagation de la Foi during the Restoration, and local Catholics continued to lend fervent support to overseas missionary endeavors. But even when the religious impulse towards expansion stood at its zenith, the Lyonnais did not overlook the more concrete advantages to be secured th…
The Lyon Chamber of Commerce and Indochina During the Third Republic
Education for Empire in Lyon during the Third Republic
FRANCE acquired the world's second largest overseas empire during the nineteenth century. This achievement appears all the more remarkable when measured against the scant holdings retained at the end of the Napoleonic Wars, the nation's weak industrial base, the banking community's marked preference for investment in the state debts of European and Mediterranean countries, the stagnant demographic pattern, and the mass of the population's distast…
Municipal Imperialism in Decline
Important segments of the Lyonnais population embraced the cause of formal and informal empire during the nineteenth century when two motives, the religious and the economic, lent impetus to overseas endeavor.1 The sometimes overlapping attractions of winning converts to Catholicism and increasing profits continued to exercise their spells well into the twentieth century. As late as 1943 the Propagation de la Foi estimated that the diocese of Lyo…

Roots of French Imperialism in the Nineteenth Century
Religious fervor, for which Lyon was also renowned, played a major role in directing the attention of her citizens abroad. During the Restoration a new interest in foreign missions appeared. Pauline Jaricot, daughter of a local silk magnate, began to gather a small group about her.3 With the goal of aiding the missions as a means of making reparation for the outrages of the Revolution, they founded in 1818 a branch of the Propagation de la Foi, a…
