G.R.E.Q.A.M. from Universite Aix-Marseille III

Abstract: This paper constitutes the first research that examines the historical origin of the debate about "U.S. competitiveness". It takes a special interest in a "myth" widely spread that concern over "U.S. competitiveness" arose between the beginning of the late 1970s and 1986. In fact, these preoccupations were to take place once at the end of World War II.
