A Comparison of Postwar French and German Economic Performance
Abstract
The subject chosen for this paper, a comparison of postwar French
and German economic performance, is a very broad one. Perhaps it is
too large for a paper such as this. However, I felt a desire to collect
in one paper the many factors that affected postwar French and German
economic performance so that they might be viewed in context and against
each other.
By its very nature. then, this study had to be somewhat selective
in order to keep within manageable limits. It is not intended to be an
exhaustive study. Perhaps its existence may be justified if it serves
as a basis for another study of a narrower and more concentrated
nature.
