Emmanuel Chadeau
Fundamental Reflections On Chadeau Inclusive Of The Context And Nature Of His Work
Emmanuel Chadeau was primarily an economic historian, focusing on the economic and industrial development of France, with a fairly strong emphasis on aviation, in the context of these other emphases. Aside from his own prolific writing, he presented the writings of others, studies were conducted, under his direction, and the output of several colloquia were published, these colloquia occurring under his direction. In his capacity as faculty at Lille III, he also oversaw a great number of Master's theses. We are gradually working this complex out, by degrees, and as variably pertinent to his analyses of aeronautical development.
(The titles we have here were drawn from a document FONDS EMMANUEL CHADEAU, given to us by a librarian at Lille III. Many names recur in the dynamic of these publication, with the role of Chadeau playing variably relative to the recurrent names of other scholars, such as Pierre Birnbaum. These "FONDS" also contain a great output of other scholarly work. To the work less directly touched by Chadeau himself we are more strictly applying the criteria of aero-relevance, and relevance to the period we are studying. We are being more broadly inclusive of Chadeau's own work, and that most directly directed by him. He did write beyond the aeronautical field, and he did write on aeronautical subjects as they developed after the years we are studying. We are giving him fairly complete coverage, as an individual, giving context to his more directly pertinent analyses. His works touched upon industrial property law as a context affecting the title "inventor"(ingénieur), on statist developments are administrative channels, specifically as they affected aeronautical progress, among vastly other things, and is of extraordinarily broad pertinence to our work.)
We are looking into Chadeau's several other published works. His collection of works, by others, many having to do with France's trajectory of industrial capital, some with a specific emphasis on aviation, is also of note. In his capacity as a faculty member at Université Lille-III, he did this collecting, pertinent to us, and he also oversaw the Masters' these of another generation.
We are also looking into the unpublished version of the fairly immense Doctoral dissertation, “État, Enterprise & Développement Économique : L’Industrie Aéronautique en France (1900-1940)". We may look into the published version as well. This gets into the ateliers associated with Appareils d'Aviation Les Frères Voisin, and with the Société Antoinette, as well as into thoughts on Clément Ader, relative to the French military. For Ader's own writing on related subjects, see Ader, 1908, L'Aviation militaire. The role of the French state, heavily tangent both to the military, of course, and to industry more generally, as furthering or hindering the progressive impulses of the aeronautic pioneers, is always pertinent.
We are still fleshing this out, and the published dissertation, available online, will be of interest cross-referenced with the unpublished.
On p.164 of the unpublished version, he alleges a check on military aero-research from 1880-1905, and on p.176 he asserts the presence of fertile bases of aeronautic development, up through 1906.
His Figure 57, on page 180, offers a diagram, and an explanation, articulating the dynamics of aeronautical development, inclusive of subcategories, relative to funding, the state, the military, and relative to other industries. All of this is penciled out. We are uncertain as to permanent inclusion, exclusion, or variation of the material in the published version. We are documenting his thought processes, over time, relative to our other manners of data tracking.
Material Drawn From The Unpublished Version Of Chadeau’s Doctoral Dissertation
(Thèse Pour le Doctorat ES-Lettres et Sciences Humaines, Université de Paris-X-Nanterre, Octobre 1985)
État, Entreprise & Developpement Économique : L’Industrie Aéronautique en France (1900-1940)
There are five volumes to this, with “Parties” largely corresponding to these volumes. though Volume 2 includes both the “Deuxième Partie : Naissance de l’Entreprise Aéronautique (1900-1914)” and the “Troisième Partie : Prospérité, Affaires et Bureaucratie (1914-1918)”.
Volume 1, after acknowledgements, a photographic dossier, and a general introduction, gets into the “Première Partie : L’Industrie Jusqu’en 1940, Étude d’Ensemble”.
On the ground, as it were, at Lille-III, presented with the unpublished version of this dissertation, we focused on Volume 2, on the included “Deuxième Partie : Naissance de l’Entreprise Aéronautique (1900-1914)”. This opens with the assertion that it was between 1905 and the middle of 1909 that aviation arose, as an economic force, that is, with the simultaneous putting in place of the first builders of heavier-than-air, the professional organization of the entrepreneurs, and foresight regarding an emryonic market. Finally, there appeared the first connections between the “pôle d’activité” and the surrounding economic milieu.
This is treated as a “crystallization” which was the fruit of long preceding evolution. The work thusly gets into some fine handling of Late-19th Century historical also of great interest.
We are exploring this at present, corporate evolutions following from early ateliers, the rises and falls in statist military-industrial support of the research engaged in by Clément Ader, the latter’s well-known formative work in the “heavier-than-air”, and a great deal more.
Our exploration of this material, particularly this section of the dissertation's unpublished version, is ongoing.

Other Material Collected By Chadeau And Reflective His Analyses
(Our interests here include the status of the inventor, perspectives on the rise, or fall, of the innovative spirit, per se, the role of "ateliers", as dynamic precursors to later types of industrial organizations, and the role of the state, that is, the role of planning, in relation to individual initiative, all of these, along with other factors, as they indirectly, or quite directly, affect the aeronautic trajectory which is our focus.)
