1767rif. 164209The Hague: chez les Libraires associés 1767. Handbook of Physiocracy including the Tableau économique First edition of Mirabeau's own abridgement of his and Quesnay's Philosophie rurale 1763 the first textbook of the physiocratic school. The Philosophie rurale presented "perhaps the most complete and magisterial account of the views of the Physiocratic school" Higgs p. 57. The Eléméns condenses the work into a more manageable textbook format aiming at a broader dissemination and understanding of the system. Importantly the Eléméns contains as a folding plate the Tableau économique first published in 1758 in a minute number of copies and reproduced in Mirabeau's L'Ami des hommes in 1760 and in the Philosophie rurale. The Tableau économique is cited as the earliest attempt to visualize a comprehensive model of the economic system illustrating the flow of goods and money and the interdependence of the agricultural manufacturing and commercial sectors. It is credited as "the most important and famous work of Physiocracy and has often been regarded as a summary of the entire corpus of Physiocratic economics" New Palgrave IV p. 23. Provenance: 19th-century bookplate of Isaac Iselin to the front pastedown; 20th-century note of authorship to front free endpaper; half-title with 20th-century library stamps of the Basel section of Schweiz Vereinigung für Sozialpolitik noted as bequeathed by the Austrian labour economist Stephan Bauer 1865-1934 and of the political science seminar of the University of Basel.

The first to follow Quesnay in the foundation of the Physiocratic circle Mirabeau was familiar with and influenced by Cantillon's theories.

1760rif. 84111No place: no printer 1760 & 1761. OF REAL IMPORTANCE IN THE HISTORY OF FINANCIAL THEORY" - a BEAUTIFUL COPY First edition of both works pairing Mirabeau's Théorie de l'Impôt his spirited and able attack upon the financial administration of France especially the "fermiers généraux" whom Mirabeau regarded as parasites preying upon the vitals of the nation with Pesselier's counterattack notable for its terse affirmation of the characteristically Physiocratic doctrine that agriculture holds a privileged place in the economic system. Mirabeau's work highlights the problems and injustices of the French system of taxation and added fuel to the coming fire of the revolution. The king disapproved of the work; Mirabeau was imprisoned on 16 December 1760 but was released on Christmas Eve through the efforts of Madame de Pompadour and others under orders to leave Paris for his estate at Bignon. The work proposes a reorganization of financial administrative machinery the abolition of the "fermes" a reduction in the taxation upon salt with the object of increasing the total yield and a special tax upon tobacco farms. The domaine the post and the mint were to be further sources of revenue. Mirabeau ranks as one of the earliest important writers on taxation. Higgs notes that the book is "of real importance in the history of financial theory" The Physiocrats p. 57. Pesselier was one of the most forceful critics of the physiocrats. Of the products of the soil Pesselier here writes "Elles procurent un profit net et durable puisqu'elles sont à l'abri de l'imitation" "They provide a net and lasting profit since they are safe from imitation".

Sehr guter Zustand mit nur geringen äußerlichen Gebrauchsspuren. Oberes und unteres Kapital etwas bestossen. Breitrandiges unbeschnittenes Exemplar Seiten sind aufgeschnitten. Sehr gutes Papier ! KEINE Anstreichungen. Honoré Gabriel Victor de Riqueti Comte de Mirabeau seit dem Tod des Vaters am 13. Juli 1789 Marquis de Mirabeau 9. März 1749 in Le Bignon bei Nemours Département Loiret; 2. April 1791 in Paris war ein französischer Politiker Physiokrat Schriftsteller und Publizist in der Zeit der Aufklärung. Er beteiligte sich an der Französischen Revolution und nahm bis zu seinem plötzlichen Tod einflussreiche Positionen ein. Wie andere Aufklärer stellte Mirabeau die britische konstitutionelle Monarchie mit der Bill of Rights als Vorbild für ein anzustrebendes Gesellschaftsmodell dar. Zu seinen Vorstellungen einer zivilisierten Gesellschaft gehörte auch die jüdische Emanzipation. Das zeigte sich speziell in seinem 1786 erschienenen Essay Über Moses Mendelssohn und die bürgerliche Besserstellung der Juden. Darin verwendet sich der Atheist Mirabeau für den gläubigen Juden und deutschen Aufklärer Mendelssohn um ihn in Frankreich bekannt zu machen. Er behandelt dessen Werdegang und Verdienste geht ein auf die Judenverfolgung in Europa und geißelt den Rassenhass als eine Perversion des Geistes. In der Quintessenz seines menschenrechtlichen Plädoyers heißt es: Gibt es keine natürlichen Rechte die älter und heiliger sind als alle gesellschaftlichen Konventionen Es könnte dem Menschengeschlecht nur zum Heil gereichen wenn man den Unterschied zwischen Bürgern und Fremden endlich vergäße und in allen zuerst und vor allem den Menschen sähe. Bei den Wahlen zu den Generalständen im Mai 1789 wurde Mirabeau Abgeordneter des Dritten Standes. Aus der neuen Perspektive nach seinem Aufenthalt in England sah er den Adel und die Kirche als Haupthindernisse der Freiheit. Er war maßgeblich an der Abschaffung der Privilegien des Adels und an der Einziehung der Kirchengüter beteiligt. Einen an die Verfassung gebundenen König sah er aber weiterhin als notwendigen Bestandteil des politischen Systems an war jedoch zunehmend skeptisch was die Überlebenschancen der Monarchie anging. An seinem Todestag tätigte er diesbezüglich folgende Aussage: Ich nehme das Leichentuch der Monarchie mit mir. Um ihre Überreste werden nun die Parteien streiten. Am 29. Januar 1791 wählten die Abgeordneten ihn zum Präsidenten der Nationalversammlung womit er den Höhepunkt seiner Popularität erreichte. Diese erlitt allerdings einen Rückschlag als seine engen Beziehungen zum König posthum bekannt wurden den er insgeheim von Mai 1790 bis zu seinem Tode beraten hatte und von dem er seinen Lebensstil mit beträchtlichen Summen hatte finanzieren lassen. Konkret hatte der König die immensen Schulden Mirabeaus übernommen und diesem eine Monatsrente von 6.000 Livres zukommen lassen. Parallel zu seinen politischen Aktivitäten fertigte der schriftstellerisch begabte Mirabeau im Verborgenen einige erotische Werke an die bis heute einen großen Anklang finden. Als Le Rideau levé ou lEducation de Laure Der gelüftete Vorhang oder Lauras Erziehung 1786 anonym erschien hatte Mirabeau bereits ein abenteuerliches Leben hinter sich das ihn mehrmals entweder hinter Gittern sah oder als gefeierten Redner im Gerichtssaal wenn es galt den eigenen angeblich unschicklichen Lebenswandel zu verteidigen. Er konnte sich folglich keinen Ärger mehr leisten und entschied seine erotischen Bücher nicht unter dem eigenen Namen zu veröffentlichen. Lauras Erziehung führt den Leser in die noch heile Welt der besseren Stände am Vorabend der Französischen Revolution. Das Buch schildert die Erziehung und das Leben eines jungen Mädchens von der ersten erotischen Begegnung bis zu Orgien die detailliert beschrieben werden. Der Roman ist eines der freizügigsten erotischen Bücher der Aufklärung mit dem Mirabeau für sexuelle Freiheit und Selbstbestimmung der Geschlechter plädiert sowie für die Notwendigkeit einer Verbindung zwischen geistiger mit körperlicher Liebe. Nur dadurch entsteht seiner Meinung nach das vollkommene Glück. Dieses Weltbild passt in das philosophische Selbstverständnis der Aufklärung welches die größtmögliche Glückseligkeit der Menschen als Ideal sah. Lauras Erziehung wurde in mehrere Sprachen übersetzt und wird bis heute auch in Deutschland neu verlegt. Zu einem weiteren Klassiker der erotischen Literatur der Aufklärung wurde Hic-et-Haec 1798.

A work of fundamental importance whose appearance created a sensation throughout Europe was widely translated and reprinted and earned its author an international reputation "greater than that of any other economist before or after not excluding Adam Smith or Karl Marx." Schumpeter p. 175n Mirabeau argues that wealth is the product of population -- in particular agriculture -- and that a large populartion is desirable that religious toleration free enterprise a more equitable system of taxation and distribution of wealth were necessary components of a vital economy. The first three parts appeared in 1756; by 1758 Mirabeau had fallen under the influence of Quesnay and issued the fourth part in which the latter's influence is very much felt. The two between them it may be said founded the school of the physiocrats. A fifth and sixth part were added in 1760. Kress 5735; Higgs 1631; Goldsmith 9317 unknown
