Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the economic policies and reforms of Jean-Baptiste Colbert, Finance Minister to Louis XIV, who helped modernize and centralize France's economy in the 17th century. It delves into the complex and often contradictory challenges facing Colbert, who sought to balance the need for increased revenue with the desire to provide relief to the heavily burdened population. The author highlights Colbert's introduction of a uniform tariff system and the reform of indirect taxes, particularly the controversial salt tax, shedding light on his principles of administrative efficiency and simplicity. The book also examines Colbert's approach to direct taxation, especially the taille, a major source of revenue that was often criticized for its inequity. Through a detailed analysis of Colbert's policies and their impact, this book offers valuable insights into the economic transformation of France during this pivotal period.
