1 janv. 1944 - Bretton Woods

Description:

Then there was another attempt in 1944. John Maynard Keynes was assigned this time to
represent the British Empire at the Bretton Woods Conference with the idea of a one world
currency run by the Bank of England called “the Bancor,” an international exchange rate that
would be again effectively a one world currency, with the idea of the Americans who had come
25
out of World War II as the only unbroken country to be the battering ram or the enforcers of an
Anglo-American reconquering of the nations of the world. Many of these nations had fought
during the war, and many had ideas of independence and freedom alive in their hearts. That was
not acceptable.
