Un volume in folio grande (26x40 cm) composto da Frontespizio satirico inciso; pagina di titolo; 26pp.; 52pp.; 32pp; 8nn. + 74 tavole satiriche (76 considerando due doppie), molte a doppia pagina o ripiegate. Mezza pelle del tempo, dorso a sei nervi, con dorature e tassello rosso. Provenienza: bollo della biblioteca Paul Adam sul frontespizio e nel retro di alcune delle tavole. Si tratta del più famoso e bel volume di satira attorno al Sistema di Law e alle sue imitazioni olandesi ed inglesi (South Sea Bubble) del 1720. All’opera è stato dedicato uno studio specifico da Arthur H. Cole, “The Great Mirror of Folly. Het Groote Tafereel... An economic-bibliographical study” (Boston, 1949), nel quale si sottolinea come “so strange was the mode of issuance thet no two specimens are exactly the same. In a sense, each copy of the Tafereel is unique”. Ciò spiega perché il numero delle tavole inserite nel volume sia sempre diverso. Nella nostra copia, per esempio, ne compaiono dieci in più rispetto all’elenco indicato nel testo. Alcune di queste incisioni , come il Carro della Follia speculativa, ebbero un successo enorme, e furono copiate e diffuse clandestinamente in Francia e in altri paesi. Varie illustrazioni sono di grande pregio decorativo. Tra le incisioni più significative e rare, la serie di carte da gioco con personaggi della vicenda del Sistema di Law. Ma tutto il Tafereel viene considerato come il più bel libro illustrato di satira economica mai apparso. Kress 3217. Manca all’Einaudi.

Sonderabdruck aus "Archiv für Sozialwissenschaft und Socialpolitik" Band 46 Heft 1 und 2, 1 brochure in-8, Verlag von J. C. B. Mohr (Paul Siebeck), Tübingen, 1919, 76 pp. Edition originale. Exceptionnel exemplaire du tiré-à-part, enrichi d'un envoi autographe non signé de Joseph Schumpeter au Dr.Bousquet, Amitiés de l'Auteur". Etat moyen (couverture abîmée et débrochée, annotations de Georges-Henri Bousquet). Dans cette étude, Schumpeter pose une définition liminaire, en refusant de considérer comme impérialisme la disposition agressive d'un Etat en vue de la poursuite d'intérêts concrets, mais en entendant par là la disposition, sans objet précis, d'un Etat à l'expansion violente sans qu'aucune limite puisse être assignée à cette expansion (Cf Perroux, La Pensée économique de Joseph Schumpeter, 23). Il y étudie un certain nombre de cas historiques historiques concrets, puis dans un dernier et fort long paragraphe, il traite de la question "Capitalisme et Impérialisme". Le dédicataire, qui devient plus tard professeur d'Université à Alger et Bordeaux, Georges-Henri Bousquet (1900-1978), était juriste de formation initiale (docteur en droit en 1923 avec une thèse sur "L'évolution sociale en Hollande 1914-1922"). Mais il reste surtout connu comme un économiste proche de Pareto (son maître en sociologie) et de Schumpeter, ainsi que comme un islamisant de l'école de Goldziher et Snouck-Hugronje. On peut signaler que le Professeur Bousquet est l'un des rares économistes français contemporains à être plusieurs fois cité dans la monumentale Histoire de l’Analyse Economique écrite par Joseph Schumpeter à la fin de sa vie. Les deux hommes se connaissaient personnellement depuis une première rencontre à Vienne en septembre 1923. A cette époque, G.-H. Bousquet fut présenté à Joseph Schumpeter, à Vienne, par Paul Lazarsfeld. Comme Bousquet le raconte lui-même : "A ce moment, Schumpeter avait 40 ans. Il était alors totalement ignoré en France, mais connu aux Etats-Unis où il avait été invité à professer quelque temps, et en Angleterre, où il avait eu également l'occasion de se faire entendre". Les deux hommes, qui deviendront amis, se rencontreront beaucoup plus longuement en 1933-1934 à Harvard, où Schumpeter sera devenu professeur. Georges Bousquet y effectuera en effet un long séjour de recherche, financé par la fondation Rockfeller. Toute sa carrière, Georges Bousquet sera fasciné par l'oeuvre de Schumpeter, qu'il fera notamment découvrir, tant par ses articles que par les discussions, à l'économiste François Perroux. Allemand

x, [2], 423 pages. Index. "There is no man living who, from the beginning or in the progress or at the ending of federal reserve legislation, was more closely or constantly than I privy to and identified with the consideration and enactment of the law under which the federal reserve banking system was set up. Ever since the enactment of the federal reserve law it has been my intention to write, some day, a story of the many inside events, word of which never reached beyond a closely restricted circle and had no such thing as current newspaper attention. Very likely my desire to tell the dramatic story would have abated if not for the recent publication of the 'Intimate Papers' in which the paternity of the Federal Reserve Act and its particular management are placidly ascribed to Colonel E.M. House." - Introduction. Accordingly, Chapter III of this book is devoted to a scathing critique of the veracity of 'The Intimate Papers of Colonel House', first published in 1926. Colonel House was an intimate confidant of Woodrow Wilson, President when the Federal Reserve Act was passed. Latter day conspiracy researchers argue House successfully advocated for the interests of the House of Rothschild during the development and passage of the Federal Reserve Act. In response to Glass's book, Paul Warburg, also instrumental in the founding of the Federal Reserve, was "impelled to lay down in black and white my recollections of certain events in the history of banking reform." - Preface to his two-volume work The Federal Reserve System, Its Origins and Growth - Reflections and Recollections, published in 1930. Commenting on Glass's book, James Grant, of Interest Rate Observer fame, notes "the story of the creation of the Fed by its chief progenitor, Carter Glass, makes you doubt he would recognize today's Federal Reserve, were he brought back to life to inspect it. He explodes in indignation at any who would impugn the proposed Federal Reserve note as mere fiat money. In fact, he considered the currency to be as good as gold - or better." Clearly, Glass's recollections herein represent a profoundly important chronicle of the origins and founding of the Federal Reserve System. Frontispiece photo portrait of Woodrow Wilson.

As the Nazi avalanche swelled, Hitler persuaded him to occupy the Presidential chair at the Reichsbank... but (Schacht) soon saw that the Fuhrer was driving relentlessly towards war. A quarrel resulted and he left the Government, remaining under a cloud until he was arrested towards the close of the regime." - from dust jacket. Schact was aquitted of war crimes at Nuremberg.

"Ranks with Smith's Wealth of Nations Ricardo's Principles Marx's Capital Marshall's Principles and Keynes' General Theory as one of the six most important books ever written in its influence upon the development of modern economic theory. Menger's influence was not however confined to theoretical economics. The Austrian School of which he was the founder was a fountainhead of classical liberalism in the European continent. The ideas of the school and its founder are therefore relevant to the modern debate between socialism and liberalism. Since many of the staunchest modern advocates of laissez faire such as L.M. Mises and F.A.V. Hayek find their intellectual roots in Menger's Principles the translation of his work is of interest to those concerned about the relations between government and business as well as to economic theorists." - dust jacket. The long overdue first English edition of the 1871 German first edition. Menger 1840-1921 "attacked the half-decayed fabric of economics and is to be ranked among those who have torn down the structure of a science and placed it upon entirely new foundations." - Joseph Schumpeter. "Menger's Principles are the best introduction to the understanding of the theory of value which we possess." - F.A. Hayek.

Mezza pelle del tempo, dorso liscio dorato con titolo iscritto per orizzontale. Qui mancano le tavole fuori testo ripiegate al termine del primo e del terzo volume e manca la planche III. Qualche altra differenza rispetto all’esemplare precedente (manca per esempio l’Avis con il sigillo e la firma del De Fresne al primo volume) lascia credere che questo sia un esemplare di contraffazione. La presenza di simili esemplari viene indicata dallo stesso autore: «...j’ai appris qu’on en avoit fait à la hate une contrefaçon»). //// Edizione originale di uno dei più straordinari trattati di economia del XVIII secolo, che è nello stesso tempo anche un saggio di futurologia, di urbanistica e perfino di ecologia. «Je vais essayer de jeter les premières bases d’un nouveau plan de culture et d’économie». E in effetti de Fresne descrive una vera e propria «economia di piano», che ha alla sua base un riequilibrio dei rapporti tra città e campagna. Primo elemento, una drastica riduzione dei cavalli (delle automobili, si direbbe oggi) nella città di Parigi. «On peut diminuer le nombre des chevaux des villes de plus de moitié...». I cavalli vanno rispediti in campagna per fare i lavori agricoli, destinando così i buoi ad altro uso: si possono cioè macellare a tre anni, procurando sei o sette volte più produzione di carni e di materie prime (pelli). Risultato: un popolo meglio nutrito, un terreno più coltivato, più grano, ecc. Un circolo economico virtuoso che non serve solo alle campagne ma anche alle città. La ristrutturazione delle grandi città, in pratica di Parigi, è l’aspetto più sorprendente delle tesi di de Fresne. Il suo piano urbanistico prevede la concentrazione degli «spettacoli» nel centro della città, vicino alla reggia (il re dovrebbe lasciare Versailles); particolare attenzione viene riservata alla viabilità, con lo sviluppo dei trasporti sull’acqua, con delle gondole, e la costruzione di canali; nuove strade più larghe e soprattutto dotate di marciapiede e di fogne laterali, che permettono un migliore transito e di tenere la città più pulita. Propone la costruzione di case alte, a più piani, per contenere l’espansione delle città; tetti piatti per risparmiare sulle spese; serbatoi d’acqua sui tetti, che permettono di avere l’acqua corrente nelle case, che poi finirebbe nelle fogne. Anche i problemi di occupazione sono affrontati: il dimezzamento dei cavalli e delle carrozze rischia infatti di lasciare numerose persone senza lavoro: «On employra les conducteurs des chariots aux travaux d’utilité et d’embellement des villes, quand ils n’auront pas d’ouvrages». Soluzione keynesiana alla fine del 700! Vengono previsti servizi pubblici urbani: trasporti in comune a basso prezzo, su itinerari e ad ore prefissate, per trasportare i cittadini, soprattutto negli orari degli spettacoli. Strade più pulite e spettacoli ben organizzati attireranno il turismo, che viene visto come una delle fonti di ricchezza. Al richiamo del turista servirebbe anche il divieto di esportare vino: se si vuole bere il vino francese, si deve venire in Francia. I lavori pubblici vengono pagati con una ristrutturazione delle imposte, in particolare sui passi carrabili, di modo da scoraggiare l’uso delle carrozze private. Ebaudy de Fresne si lancia anche in alcune ipotesi futuristiche per i trasporti: carrozze trainate da palloni aerostatici. «Si on pouvait se procurer du gaz à peu de frais, il serait possible de se servir des aérostats dans les pays de pleines, pour transporter de trés gros fardeaux avec un seul cheval ou meme sans chevaux, pour trainer des bateaux...». Meglio ancora «si l’on parvenait à rendre un balon plus léger de l’aire par le vide...». Gli ingredienti di utopia o di futurologia sono però marginali in de Fresne, rispetto ad opere contemporanee come «L’An 2440» di Mercier. Né vi sono tendenze verso concezioni «comunistiche» come in Mably o Morelly. Il piano economico di de Fresne è assolutamente «realistico e realizzabile», anticipando soluzioni ed idee che si imporranno nel secolo successivo. Da qui la singolare e finora misconosciuta importanza del «Traité d’Agriculture» nel quadro delle proposte economiche della fine del XVIII secolo. /// FRESNE, François Ebaudy de Economiste francais, né à Langres en 1743, mort à Vesoul en 1815. Il se rendit à Paris, où il s’occupa surtout d’étudier les questions agricoles et industrielles, puis visita, pour complèter ses études, L’Angleterre et l’Hollande. Au début de la Révolution, il se montra un adversaire declaré des idées de Necker, et proposa de créer un banque territoriale qui, d’aprés lui, dévait faire affluer l’argent dans les caisses de l’Etat et permettre de rembourser les capitalistes, qui absorbaient la meilleure partie des revenus du royaume. Vers la fin de sa vie, il devint l’admirateur et le disciple de Saint-Martin. /// Opere: -Plan de restauration et de libération, analyse d’un nouveau plan de culture, de finance et d’économie...
