René Mayer is recognized among Jewish contributors to Philosophy & Social Sciences — Prime Minister of France (1953) and a founding architect of the European Coal and Steel Community, which he later presided.
René Mayer was France's third prime minister of Jewish descent, after Alexandre Millerand and Léon Blum, heading the government in 1953. A veteran of both wars and of de Gaulle's Free French administration in Algiers, he was above all a builder of Europe: finance minister of the Fourth Republic, then president of the High Authority of the European Coal and Steel Community — the institution from which the European Union grew — where he succeeded Jean Monnet.
