CHAPTER VII THE ECONOMIC QUESTION THE LORRAINE IRON The Rheinisch-W estfalische Zeitung said after the beginning of the present war: "Bismarck was actuated solely by strategic reasons when he annexed AlsaceLorraine. But the country had a considerable economic value. 1) We have at Pechelbronn, in Alsace, the only important oil-well in all Germany. ... 2) In Upper-Alsace there are rich potash deposits. If this region belonged to France, the German potash monopoly, which renders all foreign lands, especially North America, tributary to our country, would be lost. . . 3) . . . Terror strikes us when we think what would have happened to us in the present war if we had not had the Lorraine iron fields in our possession. . . ."

The Rheinisch-W estfalische Zeitung may well shudder with terror at the thought of what would have happened to Germany in the present war but for the iron lands she seized fifty years ago in Lorraine, a country as French as Gascony, a country which had been thor i The slag, a by-product of the Lorraine iron industry, is valuable as fertilizer.

Germany, however, never would have engaged in this war but for her gains in the war of 1870; it would have been utterly impossible for her to plan and execute the attack of 1914 but for her possession of the Lorraine iron.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alsace-Lorraine Since 1870 At first sight it may seem that the author has pre sented the French point of view, pure and simple, since the bibliography appended contains a great many French titles, but it will be noted that the final sources are largely German, and that the effort has been made here to condemn the conquerors out of their own mouths. Many French books and articles have been used, chiefly for the quotations they furnish from newspaper and magazine articles unobtainable in America, in which Germans of consequence have expressed themselves with more freedom than in the formal propaganda liter ature sent abroad to prove by mere declaration, without demonstration, the attachment of the two provinces to their self-appointed fatherland.

Download or read book Reluctant Union Alsace Lorraine and Imperial Germany 1871 1918 written by Dan P. Silverman and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1972 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major English-language work on Alsace-Lorraine and imperial Germany in over fifty years, Reluctant Union revises many of the commonly held notions about the German annexation and rule of the territory that came to be known as the Reichsland. Concentrating on the territory's internal development between 1871 and 1918, and its relationship to imperial Germany, Dr. Silverman rejects the traditional treatment of Alsace-Lorraine as merely an object of international tension. The territory's population is viewed as a pluralistic society, not as a monolithic, hostile anti-German phalanx. The role of chauvinistic sentiment is placed in proper perspective; for the Alsace-Lorrainers, political and economic considerations often outweighed nationalistic preferences. In showing that German authority was seriously divided between conciliation and coercion, Dr. Silverman dismisses the widespread assumption that the German bureaucracy was invariably repressive in its attempts to integrate the Reichsland into the empire. In fact, the confusion and vacillation produced by the conflicts between imperial civilian and military authorities reactivated political life in Alsace-Lorraine. This political reawakening led to a closer tie between the Reichsland and the empire, but opposition from German industrial interests obstructed economic integration. Alsace-Lorraine's political, social, and economic history from 1871 to 1918 has never before been investigated in such depth. Dr. Silverman's description and analysis of this period details the Reichsland's administrative and constitutional history; outlines German programs for Alsace-Lorraine in the critical areas of citizenship option, military service, language requirements, and education; traces the German government's attempts to regulate and suppress the Roman Catholic Church in Alsace-Lorraine; and includes a highly interpretive survey of the Reichsland's economic history, which complements the portrayal of the development of territorial political parties. Free from the nationalistic bias that detracts from most studies of Alsace-Lorraine, Reluctant Union fills a major gap in the history of imperial Germany and modern Europe.
