VOLUMES OF THE COLLECTED WORKS OF FRÉDÉRIC BASTIAT, JACQUES DE GUENIN, GENERAL EDITOR

For the Liberty Fund translation of Bastiat's works we have organized the material differently from how it appears in the original 7-volume French edition. This is partly because in the French edition the correspondence is scattered across a number of volumes and does not include the volume of letters to the Cheuvreux family, whereas we wanted to put all Bastiat’s correspondence into one volume. We also wanted to arrange the material in a more thematic manner, for example, putting all his writings on the free-trade movement into volume 6. Another important difference between Liberty Fund’s edition and the Guillaumin edition is that we have not retranslated Bastiat’s translation of material which originally appeared in English as part of the Anti-Corn Law League's agitation in favor of free trade. Thus, only Bastiat’s own material which appeared in volume 3, “Cobden et la Ligue ou L’agitation anglaise pour la liberté des échanges,” such as his lengthy introduction, has been translated by us. We thus have three tables of contents:

  1. the table of contents of the original 7-volume French edition of Bastiat's works which was published 1862-1864 (at another page)
  2. the table of contents of Liberty Fund's 6-volume edition of Bastiat's Collected Works with the titles in French (this is available immediately at another page)
  3. the table of contents of Liberty Fund's 6-volume edition of Bastiat's Collected Works with the titles in English (this will be completed as the translation progresses - see below)
