En ligne: dossier consacré à Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa
|
Le CVCE, en collaboration avec Notre Europe – Institut Jacques Delors et la Fondation Nationale des Sciences Politiques (FNSP-Sciences Po), a réalisé un dossier consacré à Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa (1940-2010) avec pour objectif de mettre en perspective sa personnalité, sa pensée et ses apports au traitement des questions économiques et monétaires européennes et internationales des 40 dernières années.
Fonctionnaire à la Banque d'Italie dès 1968, Directeur général pour les Affaires économiques et financières à la Commission européenne (1979-1983), directeur général adjoint à la Banque d'Italie (1984-1997) et membre du premier directoire de la Banque centrale européenne (BCE) (1998-2005), Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa a joué un rôle important dans la définition de l'UEM et la création de l'euro (notamment dans la conception du rapport Delors), dans la création de la BCE ainsi que dans le renforcement de la BCE dans la zone euro.
Ce dossier est notamment composé de douze interviews réalisées avec des personnalités européennes de premier plan qui ont toutes collaboré de manière étroite avec Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa lors des différentes étapes de sa carrière. Ces grands témoins ont tous spontanément accepté de nous livrer leurs souvenirs les plus marquants afin de rendre hommage à celui qui, pour beaucoup d'entre eux, était devenu un ami. Nous tenons ici à les en remercier particulièrement.

Now online: new file about Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa
|
The CVCE, in cooperation with ‘Notre Europe – Institut Jacques Delors’ and the National Foundation for Political Science (FNSP-Sciences Po), has developed a file on Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa (1940–2010) with the aim of providing new insight into his personality, his approach and his contribution to European and international economic and monetary affairs over the past 40 years.
As an official at the Bank of Italy from 1968, then Director-General for Economic and Financial Affairs at the European Commission (1979–1983), Deputy Director General at the Bank of Italy (1984–1997) and a member of the first Executive Board of the European Central Bank (ECB) (1998–2005), Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa played a leading role in the definition of EMU and the creation of the euro (particularly in drawing up the Delors Report), and also in the establishment of the ECB and the consolidation of its role in the euro zone.
This file contains 12 interviews with eminent European figures, all of whom worked closely with Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa during the various stages of his career. These eyewitnesses all agreed to share their memories with us to pay tribute to a man who, for many of them, had become a close friend. We would particularly like to extend our thanks to them for their cooperation.

Oral history at the CVCE
|
For more than ten years now, the CVCE has been gathering accounts from people who have witnessed or been involved in the major events that have shaped the European integration process. To date, the researchers in the European Integration Studies Department have recorded or filmed more than 100 interviews which have been published in a dedicated section on www.cvce.eu.
The interviews are chiefly conducted for academic purposes, namely to provide new primary sources for researchers specialising in European studies. These sources often represent a useful complement to other resources and archive material, and may even serve to shed new light on this material.
The CVCE’s interviews also constitute a precious legacy for present and future generations. These personal accounts offer an effective and appealing way to get closer to the past so as to develop a better understanding of the present and prepare for the future.
