The utopian novel L'An deux mille quatre cent quarante. R�ve s'il en fut jamais by the French author Louis-S�bastien Mercier (1740-1814) was the first imaginary portrayal of an ideal society projected into the remote future. It reveals a vision of twenty-fifth century Paris, and a world transformed into a community of general happiness, well-being and progress. In searching for answers for the problem of evil and the conditions of happiness on earth in his contemporary society, Mercier's utopia also offers a generally valid analysis concerning the means and aims of a happy life. On the other hand, the present study indicates that Mercier's vision of the "best of possible worlds" also reveals a great deal about the reasons why the prevailing eighteenth-century conception of happiness, founded on the Enlightenment ideal of rational control, already contained the seeds of its own destruction. This investigation by Riikka Forsstr�m sheds light on Mercier's utopian vision both as critical mirror image analysing its own society, and as an exploration of possible futures. In his utopia, Mercier deals with a wide range of subjects, from the needfulness of political reforms, and economic theories, to the collision of a spiritual with a more secular- scientific world view, and even addresses women's position in society. He makes us reflect on the limits of the possible and how the possibilities could be transformed as part of a living culture.

Political realists are accustomed to argue that ethical considerations have no place in public affairs. This is always a debatable view: realism habitually employs a crude utilitarian morality rather than being totally amoral, and ethical considerations have continued to play an ever more prominent role in the thinking and actions of policy makers and politicians. In addition, citizens increasingly expect policies not only to be efficient and effective according to some purely economic or prudential calculation, but also to be equitable and just as well. As a consequence, both the public and private morality of politicians and public officials has come under ever greater scrutiny. The essays collected together in this volume explore the ethical issues raised by the process and substance of policy-making, and discuss whether it is reasonable to expect ethical standards in public affairs.

Nourri des Lumieres, Louis-Sebastien Mercier fut ecrivain, dramaturge, journaliste et publiciste francais. "L'An 2440" est une oeuvre marquante: l'auteur se reveille 700 ans plus tard et va a la decouverte du Paris futur. Melant critique acerbe du XVIIIeme siecle et uchronie, ce Paris futur decrit par Mercier nous semble deja depasse de nos jours. Mais il est un temoignage litteraire, politique et moral essentiel sur les reves d'une generation qui a voulu et fait la Revolution francaise, et espere un monde meilleur. Texte integral."

Rêve s'il en fût jamais. AVANT-PROPOS Desirer que tout soit bien est le voeu du philosophe. J'entends par ce mot, dont on a sans doute abusé, l'être vertueux & sensible qui veut le bonheur général, parce qu'il a des idées précises d'ordre et d'harmonie. Le mal fatigue les regards du Sage, il s'en plaint ; on soupçonne qu'il a de l'humeur ; on a tort. Le Sage sait que le mal abonde sur la terre ; mais en même tems il a toujours présente à l'esprit cette perfection si belle & si touchante, qui peut & qui doit même être l'ouvrage de l'homme raisonnable. En effet, pourquoi nous seroit-il défendu d'espérer qu'après avoir décrit ce cercle extravagant de sottises autour duquel l'égarent ses passions, l'homme ennuyé reviendra à la lumière pure de l'entendement ? Pourquoi le genre humain ne seroit-il pas semblable à l'individu ? Emporté, violent, étourdi dans son jeune âge ; sage, doux, modéré dans sa vieillesse[1]. L'homme qui pense ainsi, s'impose à lui-même le devoir d'être juste. Mais savons-nous ce que c'est que perfection ? Peut-elle être le partage d'un être foible et borné ? Ce grand secret n'est-il pas caché sous celui de la vie ? & ne faudra-t-il pas dépouiller notre vêtement mortel pour percer cette sublime énigme ? En attendant tâchons de rendre les choses passables, ou, si c'est encore trop, rêvons du moins qu'elles le sont. Pour moi, concentré avec Platon, je rêve comme lui. Ô mes chers concitoyens ! Vous que j'ai vu gémir si fréquemment sur cette foule d'abus dont on est las de se plaindre, quand verrons-nous nos grands projets, quand verrons-nous nos songes se réaliser ! Dormir, voilà donc notre félicité. Au sujet de l'auteurLouis-Sébastien Mercier, né le 6 juin 1740 à Paris où il est mort le 25 avril 1814, est un écrivain, dramaturge, journaliste et publiciste français.Auteur prolifique, l'un des hommes dont la vie littéraire a été la plus active, Louis-Sébastien Mercier, qui s'appelait lui-même « le plus grand livrier de France », est surtout connu pour son Tableau de Paris et l'An 2440, publiés avant la Révolution. Il est également l'auteur de cinquante pièces de théâtre et de nombreux essais critiques, et le fondateur des Annales patriotiques et littéraires.BiographieSa familleIssu d'une famille de la petite bourgeoisie, Mercier naquit le 6 juin 1740 à Paris, quai de l'École, entre le Pont Neuf et le Louvre, où son père, Jean-Louis Mercier, tenait boutique de marchand fourbisseur, et baptisé deux jours plus tard en l'église Saint-Germain l'Auxerrois.Originaire de Metz et veuf d'une première femme, Claude Galloy, Jean-Louis Mercier signa le 24 août 1739 un contrat de mariage avec Élisabeth Andrée Le Pas, fille de feu Martin Le Pas, maître maçon. Louis-Sébastien naquit l'année suivante. Un cadet, Charles André, qui devait plus tard tenir l'hôtel des Trois-Villes, rue de Tournon, vit le jour en 1741. Un troisième enfant, Jean-Baptiste, mourut au berceau. Sa mère mourut à son tour le 30 juillet 1743, et son père se remaria une troisième fois avec Charlotte Spol, qui lui donna une fille, Anne Charlotte.
