Abstract

P(論文)

From the second half of the eighteenth century to the first half of the nineteenth century Geneva had undergone great political and social changes. These changes were related to the development of European social thought. Taking these circumstances into consideration, this paper examines the activities of three famous intellectuals of those days: Etienne Dumont, Pierre Prevost, and Jean-Charles-Leonard Simonde de Sismondi. These intellectuals were active in various fields including politics, and played very important roles in introducing and diffusing English social thought and social sciences to the Continent. Their activities show that intellectuals in Geneva held an interesting position in European intellectual history, and that the research took place in Geneva provides different perspectives on the understanding of economic thought.
