  MITCHENER Kris (Leavey School of Business) : Should I stay or should I go? Evidence on Dynamic Secessions from the U.S. Civil War

  Résumé

  What propels secession? A viable outside option should be the first condition to se- cede. This paper emphasizes the importance of strategic interactions between seceders to define this viable outside option. We propose a stylized model to define these “dynamic secessions” and how information shape them. Using the canonical case of the secession of southern U.S. states in the 1860s and novel, hand-collected daily sub-sovereign bond data from the NYSE, we illustrate how financial market reacted to three different types of information. First, we show that financial markets priced “secession risk” after the election of President Lincoln in the fall of 1860 – when Southern states’ diverged and long before war broke out between the Confederacy and the Union. Second, yields on the bonds of seceding states decreased as the number of states seceding increased, sug- gesting that financial markets priced the viability of the Confederacy. Third, evidence of within-state heterogenetiy in preferences increased a state’s secession risk

  JABKO Nicolas (Johns Hopkins University ) : The ECB’s new normal and the changing politics of money after 2007 - La nouvelle normalité de la Banque Centrale Européenne

  Résumé

  This chapter challenges a widespread view that the European Union of the 2010s stuck to, and later reluctantly abandoned, a neoliberal “Frankfurt consensus” of price stability and fiscal restraint pushed by the European Central Bank. As I argue, the ECB did political work to establish what I call a new normal, ultimately squeezing crisis-time unconventional actions into its policy repertoire. The ECB is at the origin of EU fiscal retrenchment, but then it lost control of its creature. Increasingly, ECB leaders questioned and even resisted the Frankenstein-like politics of austerity. They alienated doctrinaire fiscal conservatives early on, including those on the ECB Governing Council. In adopting unconventional policies of unprecedented monetary expansion, and later in tacitly supporting greater fiscal accommodation, the ECB evolved into a rather agile central bank. This decade-long evolution helps to understand why, in response to the pandemic, the ECB quickly stepped up its asset purchases and became an advocate for an ambitious fiscal expansion at the EU level. Far from utilizing the ECB’s independence to singlemindedly pursue neoliberal policies, ECB leaders pushed back against rigid conservative attitudes among central banks, eurozone governments, and segments of the public.

  SHIZUME Masato (Waseda University) : Financial development in Japan during the pre-modern period (17-19C)

  Résumé

  The feudal lords of the Edo Period (1603-1867) were required by law to rotate back and forth between Edo and their home territories every two years, and their families were required to live in Edo permanently. The lords collected taxes mainly in the form of rice and other agricultural commodities and sold substantial portions of those commodities to acquire cash to fund their households and activities in Edo and travels between Edo and home. Merchants in domain territories and Osaka were engaged in trade and finance for and with the domains as well as of their own. Following the opening of the treaty ports in 1859 and Meiji Restoration in 1868, Japan instituted a series of drastic reforms. Among other entities, national banks structured as joint stock companies according to the US model played a key role in the modernization of the country by providing the society with liquidity and integrating the national financial markets. Empirical evidence suggests that commoners who engaged in commercial activities in the late Edo to the early Meiji Period played a key role in Japan’s modernization.

  AVARO Maylis (Graduate Institute, Genève) : Zombie International Currency, the pound sterling, 1945-1971

  Résumé

  This paper provides new evidence on the decline of sterling as an international currency, focusing on its role as foreign exchange reserve asset under the Bretton Woods era. Using a unique new dataset on the composition of foreign exchange reserves of central banks, I show that the shift away from the sterling occurred earlier than conventionally supposed for the countries not belonging to the sterling area. The use of sterling has been described as freely chosen, imposed by the Bank of England or negotiated. I argue that the sterling area was a captive market as the Bank of England used capital controls, commercial threats and economic sanctions against sterling area countries to limit the divestments of their sterling assets. This management of the decline of sterling benefited mostly Britain and the City of London but represented a cost for sterling area countries and the international monetary system.
