Documentazione IBRD

La documentazione compresa in questa sezione è tratta dall'archivio della International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) ed è stata resa disponibile dall'autorizzazione alla consultazione datata, per la gran parte dei documenti, all'anno 2010.

La IBRD, meglio conosciuta come World Bank, era stata concepita nel luglio 1944 con il compito di sostenere i Paesi europei nell'opera di ricostruzione. Con l'avvento del Piano Marshall questa missione iniziale fu sostituita con l'obiettivo di promuovere lo sviluppo nelle aree economicamente arretrate, all'interno delle quali rientrava anche il Mezzogiorno d'Italia (per questa e per tutte le notizie riguardanti la Banca Mondiale e i prestiti erogati alla Cassa per il Mezzogiorno cfr. Amedeo Lepore, La Cassa per il Mezzogiorno e la Banca Mondiale: un modello per lo sviluppo economico italiano, Quaderni SVIMEZ - Numero speciale, Roma 2012).

La documentazione qui presentata è relativa ai rapporti che intercorsero tra la IBRD e le autorità italiane dall'istituzione della Cassa per il Mezzogiorno - avvenuta, per quanto concerne il suo finanziamento, con il concorso della IBRD - e il 1965, data degli ultimi documenti.

I documenti erano riservati a una circolazione interna (ciascun documento reca sul frontespizio la dicitura stampigliata: "This report is restricted to use within the bank", oltre alle indicazioni relative al numero della relazione, alla sua collocazione e alla data di pubblicazione) e riguardano le valutazioni dei presidenti e dei principali dipartimenti della IBRD sulla Cassa per il Mezzogiorno e sullo sviluppo economico del Sud, in particolare sui prestiti richiesti e sugli investimenti pubblici realizzati in Italia. I documenti sono presentati in ordine cronologico, distinti in tre sezioni:

  1. I rapporti interni di sintesi e valutazione su varie questioni attinenti il programma di sviluppo per l'Italia meridionale, la Cassa per il Mezzogiorno, lo svolgimento dell'attività di finanziamento e promozione della crescita nelle regioni meridionali, i progetti italiani per l'industria, l'irrigazione e l'energia;
  2. Le relazioni e le raccomandazioni del presidente della IBRD che informava in via riservata i direttori esecutivi della Banca sulle richieste della Cassa, sulle condizioni economiche dell'Italia, sui finanziamenti proposti per lo sviluppo delle aree del Sud, sull'impiego e sugli effetti dei prestiti
  3. I rapporti annuali al "Board of Governors" e altri documenti di carattere vario.
