Excerpt from Reflections on the Formation and the Distribution of Riches
Anne Robert Jacques Turgot, baron d'Aulne, was born in Paris on May l0, 1727.He came of a branch of an old noble family of Normandy, which had for-two or three generations furnished the state with able admitiistralive officials: his grandfather ha served as an Intendant; his father had occupied high judicial positions, and presided for a time over the municipal government of Paris as Prévôt des Marchands. He received his early education at the Collége Louis-le-Grand and the Collége du Plessis ; and then, being destined as a younger son for the ecclesiastical profession, he entered upon his theological studies at the Séminaire de Saint-Sulpice, and received the degree of bachelor of theology in 1747. In 1748 he was admitted to residence in the Maison de Sorbonne; and, in December 1749, he was elected to the honorary office of Prieur for the ensuing year. Early in 1751 he changed his plans, and determined to enter the judicial and administrative service. In January 1752 he was appointed Substitut du Procureur Général; in December, Conseiller au Parlement de Paris; in March 1753, Maître des Requêtes. His duties for the next eight years were chiefly judicial ; but in 1755 and 1756 he accompanied Goumay, the Intendant du Commerce, in his official tours of inspection through the south and west of the kingdom.
In August 1761 he was appointed Intendant of the Généralité of Limoges, and held that office till the middle of 1774.

Calificación del vendedor: 4 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the profound reflections of the 18th-century economist and statesman, Anne Robert Jacques Turgot on the pivotal relationship between economics and society. Widely considered one of the Physiocrats' founding fathers, Turgot's theories on wealth and its distribution have shaped our understanding of economics. In this volume, he delves into the very nature of wealth creation, tracing its origins to land cultivation and the division of labor. Turgot illuminates the fundamental distinction between productive and unproductive labor, highlighting the unique role of the cultivator or farmer as the source of all wealth. This distinction forms the basis for his innovative classification of society into three distinct classes: the productive, stipendiary, and disposableâ"a groundbreaking concept that continues to resonate with modern economists and historians. Turgot's treatise offers a profound analysis of the dynamics of wealth distribution, emphasizing the role of proprietors or landowners in drawing revenue from their estates through various methods, including direct cultivation, sharecropping, and leasing. Through its exploration of these ideas, this book provides a valuable lens through which to examine the historical evolution of economic thought and its enduring relevance to contemporary economic and social issues. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
