Abstract:

At nearly the same moment, Jeremy Bentham and Henry Thornton adopted diametrically opposed approaches to stabilizing the financial system. Henry Thornton eloquently defended the Bank of England’s actions as the lender of last resort and saw its discretionary management of liquidity as the key stabilizer of the credit system. In contrast, Jeremy Bentham advocated the imposition of strict bank regulations and examinations, without which, he predicted, Britain would soon experience a systemic crisis—which he called “universal bankruptcy.” There are strong parallels but also dramatic differences with our recent attempts to reduce systemic risk within financial systems. The Basel III bank regulatory framework effectively intertwines Bentham’s and Thornton’s diametrically opposed approaches to stabilizing banks. Yet Bentham’s and Thornton’s concerns regarding the stability of the wider financial system remain alive today due to financial innovation and the politics of responding to financial crises.

Abstract:

AbstractClaims that the Bank of England began to act as a Lender of Last Resort as early as the mid-eighteenth century date back to Adam Smith and Henry Thornton. This article presents evidence on the Bank’s financial market interventions during the 1763 and 1772–1773 crises, and concludes that although the former was too gradual to be truly representative of last resort lending by 1772 the means of intervention described by Thornton were largely in place. Although direct evidence for the Bank’s decision making process on either occasion is lacking, the universal contemporary conviction of its unique resources and obligations make it unlikely that it was entirely motivated by political considerations or cronyism. Its actions are instead consistent with Thornton’s crisis containment narrative of banknote loans to London bankers, which in turn was the optimal response for containing financial contagion by ensuring the continued health of the bills of exchange network.

Abstract:

WITH AMPLE SELECTIONS FROM contemporary family letters, the sixth chapter of E. M. Forster's Marianne Thornton: A Domestic Biography (1956), entitled “Deceased Wife's Sister,” narrates the story of “a fantastic mishap” that the members of his grandparents' generation “could only regard as tragic” (189). After the death of his first wife, Harriet, in 1840, Henry Thornton decided to take another – Harriet's younger sister Emily – and at once, “the situation became very awkward” (190). Having lived with Henry all her life, his sister Marianne “behaved civilly” (190) to Emily Dealtry, who “had continued to frequent the house” after Harriet's demise, helping “to look after her nephew and her nieces” (189), but another Thornton sister, Isabella, “refused to see her anywhere” (190). Spending “vast sums” without success “in trying to get the 1850 bill passed” (192) – a bill that would have repealed the 1835 statute invalidating all such future marriages – Henry closed up the family home and took Emily, her mother, and his own daughters abroad to solemnize the marriage in one of the many European states where these unions were legal. Appalled, the rest of his nine siblings, most of them married, worked to maintain a united front. Upon Henry and Emily's return to England, they prevailed upon the susceptible Marianne to stay away from Battersea Rise, the family home: even “a single visit” from her, Forster's clerical grandfather insisted, “will be magnified into countenance and approval by a leading member of the family: and every artifice be employed to draw others in …. In the mind of society the family may become mixed with the offenders: and real injury be done without any resultant benefit” (214). By this act on the part of “the Master, the Inheritor, who had betrayed his trust,” Forster characterizes the other members of the family as “excluded for ever” from their ancestral home “unless they bent the knee to immorality, which was unthinkable” (205). Marking his own distance from Thornton family values, Forster comments, “to the moralist, so much discomfort will seem appropriate. To the amoralist it will offer yet another example of the cruelty and stupidity of the English law in matters of sex” (210).

Abstract:

A indicação de LAIDLER (1987b) de que Henry Thornton, apesar de ter mudado de posição política, não modificou substancialmente suas subjacentes percepções analíticas entre 1802 e 1810 não tem recebido suficiente atenção por parte da literatura especializada. Busca-se, aqui, estudar se e em que medida essa indicação é corroborada. O caminho investigativo escolhido, contudo, não se restringe, meramente, a uma comparação analítico-teórica das visões sustentadas pelo autor nos anos em questão. Para que se compreenda com maior acurácia suas idéias monetárias, é necessário que as mesmas sejam situadas no contexto histórico e analítico original, levando-se em consideração os paradigmas de economia monetária e bancária mais aceitos na Grã- Bretanha a essa época e as controvérsias do período. Também serão de destaque as análises das Comissões de que Thornton fez parte, o \'Irish Currency Committee\', em 1804, e o \'Bullion Committee\', em 1810. A base adotada para a comparação do pensamento do autor em ambos os períodos é a obra \'An Enquiry into the Nature and Effects of the Paper Credit of Great Britain\', de 1802, e seus discursos feitos em maio de 1811 a respeito do \'Bullion Report\', que foi publicado um ano antes.
LAIDLER (1987b)?s indication that though Henry Thornton?s policy stance had changed between 1802 and 1810, his underlying analytical views weren?t any different hadn?t received enough attention from the specialized literature. We aim to study here if and in which measure this perspective is corroborated. However the investigation path chosen is not merely restricted to an analytical theoretical comparison between the two views supported by the author in the corresponding years. In order to understand with greater accuracy his monetary ideas, it?s necessary to place them in their original historical and analytical context, considering the most regarded banking and monetary paradigms of Great Britain in that time. Attention will also be placed in the Committees of which Thornton was a member, like the \'Irish Currency Committee\', in 1804, and the \'Bullion Committee\', in 1810. The base in relation to we compare the ideas of the author in both periods is his work \'An Enquiry into the Nature and Effects of the Paper Credit of Great Britain\', of 1802, and his speeches made in may 1811 about the \'Bullion Report\', which was published a year earlier.

Abstract:

La spécificité de la tradition monétaire de Henry Thornton, Ralph George Hawtrey, John Maynard Keynes et John Richard Hicks, est de considérer le taux d'intérêt comme une variable influencée par la banque centrale. Ces auteurs peuvent être rattachés à une même tradition monétaire, différente de celle de Knut Wicksell, où le taux d'intérêt est déterminé par une variable réelle: le taux de profit. Dans la tradition de Thornton, le prêt et l'emprunt renvoient une vente et un achat de titres de dette. Ces derniers prennent une forme différente selon la période étudiée. Au dix-neuvième siècle, Thornton proposait que la Banque d'Angleterre contrôle, par des variations de son taux d'escompte, le prix de la liquidité de court-terme, étant la substituabilité des traites commerciales en monnaie. Un siècle plus tard, cette influence était effective. Cependant, au XXe siècle, avec le développement des marchés financiers, d'autre canaux de transmissions de la politique monétaire sont apparus. Bien que négligée par 1 littérature, une des controverses les plus représentatives de cette époque est celle d'Hawtre Keynes et Hicks. Ils conviennent que le taux court est un phénomène monétaire. En revanche, ils ne s'accordent pas sur la nature du taux long. Les débats portent sur la théorie pionnière d Keynes de la structure par terme des taux d'intérêt, les effets d'annonces, ainsi que les limite de l'arbitrage
The specificity of the monetary tradition of Henry Thornton, Ralph George Hawtrey, John Maynard Keynes and John Richard Hicks is to consider the interest rate as mainly determined by the monetary policy. Those authors are part of the same monetary tradition, different that Knut Wicksell for whom the interest rate is a real variable: the rate of profit. The process of borrowing and lending, in the monetary tradition analyzed in my PhD thesis, corresponds to a sale and a purchase of debts. Debts take a different form according to the period studied. ln the nineteenth century, Thornton wrote that the Bank of England should be able to manage, by varying its discount rate, the price of short-term liquidity, which is the substitution of bills againt money. ln the twentieth century, other transmission channels of monetary policy appeared wit the evolution of financial markets. Although neglected by the literature, one of the most representative controversy at that time was between Hawtrey, Keynes and Hicks. All made a theory in which the short-term rate is a monetary phenomenon. They however disagreed on the nature of the long-term rate. The debate is on Keynes's pioneering theory of the term structur of interest rates, the announcement effects, and the limits to arbitrage

Abstract:

Le taux d'intérêt naturel est défini, depuis Wicksell (1898), comme le niveau du taux d'intérêt réel compatible avec une inflation stable. Cette thèse, articulée autour de quatre essais, propose de réexaminer le concept de taux naturel dans une perspective historique et d’évaluer l'utilité pratique, pour la politique monétaire, d'estimations empiriques de ce taux. Le premier article est consacré à Henry Thornton (1760-1815), souvent présenté comme un précurseur du modèle wicksellien. Suivent trois études empiriques. La première estime le taux d’intérêt naturel dans la zone euro grâce au filtre de Kalman. La deuxième utilise le même modèle pour évaluer par des simulations si l'incertitude qui entoure ces estimations est telle qu'elle doive décourager la banque centrale d'en tenir compte. Enfin, le dernier essai examine le contenu en information de l'écart entre taux court réel observé et taux naturel estimé pour quelques variables macroéconomiques clés
Since Wicksell (1898), the natural rate of interest (NRI) is frequently defined as the real short term interest rate consistent with stable inflation, This PhD dissertation aims both to re-interpret the concept in a history-of-thought perspective and to assess the practical usefulness of empirical estimates of the NRI for monetary policy. The first essay is devoted to Henry Thornton (1760-1815), who is commonly seen as a precursor of Wicksell’s model. Three empirical studies follow. In the second one, a time-varying natural rate of interest is estimated for the euro area with the Kalman filter. Using the same model, the third essay investigates on the basis of simulations whether the multifaceted uncertainty that blurs the perception of changes in the NRI should deter the central bank from using such estimates. Finally, the fourth essay assesses the leading indicator properties of the estimated gap between the real interest rate and its natural level for key macroeconomic variables

Abstract:

Cette étude vise à déterminer dans quelle mesure des causes antérieures à la Révolution tranquille expliquent la nouvelle organisation sociale du Canada français, contrairement à l’idée selon laquelle les années soixante inaugurent une rupture identitaire amenant les Canadiens français à l’extérieur du Québec à ne plus se considérer comme issus d’une nation canadienne-française commune. Durant le première moitié du XXe siècle, plusieurs événements perturbateurs complexifient l’histoire des relations entre ces groupes minoritaires et ceux qu’elle perçoit comme les Autres : la majorité anglo-canadienne et les Canadiens français du Québec en situation majoritaire. Les crises scolaires en Ontario (1912), au Manitoba (1916) et en Saskatchewan (1931), ainsi que les crises de la conscription (1917 et 1944), ont chacune une incidence non seulement sur les rapports réels entre les minorités et les groupes majoritaires concernés, mais aussi sur les représentations qu’ils en ont dans la presse canadienne. Le dépouillement de quelques journaux des minorités canadiennes-françaises (Le Droit, Le Patriote de l’Ouest, La Liberté, La Survivance) publiés durant les crises provinciales ou nationales envisagées nous permettra de vérifier l’hypothèse selon laquelle elles contribuent, sous les formes qu’elles prennent dans la presse en tant que « moments discursifs » (Moirand), à préparer la rupture du Canada français de 1912 à 1944. Après avoir mis en évidence le contenu et les différentes formes du discours journalistique sur les relations entre les minorités canadiennes-françaises et les autres Canadiens, nous analyserons les discours relatifs à l’enfance (discours sur le parentage, les conditions d’hygiène, les mauvaises fréquentations, etc.) et ceux spécialement écrits à l’intention de la jeunesse canadienne-française. Ils nous aideront à suivre l’évolution de la littérature pour la jeunesse dans la presse, d’observer ce qu’elle tire des autres discours qui y circulent, comment elle conçoit sa fonction, souvent idéologique, dans la société, et la manière dont elle contribue au glissement identitaire qui s’opère graduellement jusqu’aux années soixante.

Abstract:

This chapter explores sibling ties from a sister’s perspective. Both women experienced fraught relationships with their brothers. Alice Thornton shows a young woman fighting back when her brother blocked her from the inheritance rightfully hers. In her frank autobiography, she justified her actions, while trying to avoid criticism of her brother tarnishing the family’s good name. Dorothy Osborne’s story centres on her brother Henry’s campaign to sabotage her love for William Temple and push her into a match he considered more acceptable. Henry’s diary and Dorothy’s letters give both sides of a complex and stormy relationship. Henry asserted his ‘rights’ as an elder brother, and believed that he was acting in his sister’s best interests. At the same time, he wanted an arrangement that would suit his own interests, and was driven by passionate emotions that revealed a clearly incestuous dimension.
