JEAN GUSTAVE (1813 - 1892), See also:French economist, was See also:born at Seneuil (See also:Dordogne) on the 22nd of See also:December 1813. Seneuil was an additional name adopted from his native See also:place. Devoting himself at first to the study of the See also:law, he was called to the French See also:bar in 1835. Soon after, however, he returned to Dordogne and settled down as a manager of See also:iron-See also:works. He found leisure to study economic and See also:political questions, and was a frequent contributor to the republican papers. On the See also:establishment of the second See also:republic in 1848 he became director of the public domains. After the coup d'etat of See also:Napoleon III. in 1851 he went to See also:South See also:America, and held the professorship of political See also:economy at the See also:National See also:Institute of See also:Santiago, in See also:Chile, from 1853 to 1863, when he returned to See also:France. In 1879 he was made a councillor of See also:state, and in 1882 was elected a member of the Academie See also:des sciences morales et politiques. He died at See also:Paris on the 29th of See also:June 1892. Courcelle-Seneuil, as an economist, was strongly inclined towards the liberal school, and was equally partial to the See also:historical and experimental methods; but his best energies were directed to applied economy and social questions. His See also:principal See also:work is Traite theorique et pratique d'economie politique (2 vols., 1858); among his others may be mentioned Traite theorique et pratique des operations de banque (1853); Etudes sur la See also:science sociale (1862); La Banque libre (1867); Liberte et socialisme (1868); See also:Protection et libre echange (1879); he also translated into French See also:John See also:Stuart See also:Mill's Principles.
