词条 | Wilhelm von Kardorff |
释义 |
He was educated at Heidelberg and Halle, where he fought 31 duels.[2] He joined the Prussian civil service in the late 1840s and during the next decade purchased large estates in Silesia.[2] He greatly admired Otto von Bismarck and enjoyed a close friendship with him.[1][3] Following the Panic of 1873 and the consequent economic depression, Kardorff campaigned for the restoration of protectionism, founding the Central Association of German Industrialists in 1876.[3][2] This campaign was successful, with Bismarck passing a tariff in 1879.[3][1] G. P. Gooch considered this the greatest achievement of Kardorff's career.[3] Kardorff was the Reichstag's primary expert on economic affairs.[3] His economic ideas were influenced by Henry Charles Carey and he fought unsuccessfully for the adoption of bimetallism, persuading the Reichstag but not the British, who favoured gold.[2][3] He also opposed Leo von Caprivi's commercial treaties that led to freer trade and campaigned for higher tariff rates, succeeding in 1902.[2] Notes1. ^1 2 Sidney B.
