Jean Monnet
Jean Omer Marie Gabriel Monnet (; 9 November 1888 – 16 March 1979) was a French political economist and diplomat. He is regarded by many as the chief architect of European unity and the founding father of the European Union. He was the first leader of a European executive body, as President of the High Authority of the European Coal and Steel Community, and thus he is known as the "Father of Europe".〔(Jean Monnet:Father of Europe )〕 Never elected to public office, Monnet worked behind the scenes of American and European governments as a well-connected ''pragmatic internationalist''.〔Times obituary〕 He was named patron of the 1980–1981 academic year at the College of Europe, in honour of his accomplishments. ==Early years== Monnet was born in Cognac, a commune in the department of Charente in France, into a family of cognac merchants. At the age of sixteen, he abandoned his university entrance examinations part way through and moved to the United Kingdom, where he spent several years in London with Mr. Chaplin, an agent of his father's company. Subsequently, he traveled widely – to Scandinavia, Russia, Egypt, Canada, and the United States – for the family business.
