A.R.J. Turgot
Jacques Turgot (Baron de l'Aulne) was perhaps the leading economist of 18th Century France. Although often lumped together with Quesnay and the Physiocrats, his contributions were quite distinct and advanced considerably upon Physiocratic theories. Turgot can be said to have formed a distinct school of his own, counting the Abbй Morellet and the Marquis de Condorcet as close friends and disciples. More importantly, Turgot exercised a deep influence upon Adam Smith, who was living in France in the 1760s and was on intimate terms with Turgot. Many of the concepts and ideas in Smith's Wealth of Nations are drawn directly from Turgot. [eng] |
