Thomas Robert Malthus, 1766-1834. Robert Malthus (he went by his middle name) was born in "the Rookery", a country estate in Dorking, Surrey (south of London). He was the second son of Daniel Malthus, a country gentleman and avid disciple of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and David Hume (both of whom he knew personally). Accordingly, Malthus was educated according to Rousseauvian precepts by his father and a series of tutors. Malthus entered Jesus College, Cambridge, in 1784 and was ordained a minister of the Church of England in 1788. He earned his M.A. in 1791. Around 1796, Malthus became a curate in the sleepy town of Albury, a few miles from his father's house. Having been elected Fellow of Jesus College in 1793, he divided his time between Cambridge and Albury. It was in the course of his interminable intellectual debates with his father over the "perfectibility of society" thesis then being advanced by William Godwin and the Marquis de Condorcet , that Malthus's decided to set his ideas down on paper. It was eventually published as a pamphlet known as the Essay on Population In this famous work, Malthus posited his hypothesis that (unchecked) population growth always exceeds the growth of means of subsistence. Actual (checked) population growth is kept in line with food supply growth by "positive checks" (starvation, disease and the like, elevating the death rate) and "preventive checks" (i.e. postponement of marriage, etc. that keep down the birthrate), both of which are characterized by "misery and vice". Malthus's hypothesis implied that actual population always has a

Thomas Robert Malthus Introduction Malthus' Life Malthus' Essay On Population The Critics ... [TOC] Introduction:- What many know, at least those with an elementary knowledge of economics or politics, Malthus is the surname of a man, who, a couple of hundred years back, said that man, sooner or later, universally, will run up against himself; that the population of mankind will eventually outstrip man's ability to supply himself with the necessities of life. The Malthusian doctrine, as stated in "Essay on the Principle of Population," was expressed as follows: "population increases in a geometric ratio, while the means of subsistence increases in an arithmetic ratio." Well, that seems plain enough, and perfectly understandable if there is too many people and not enough food, then, certainly, there is going to be problems. Malthus developed his theory, at least to this extent: that left alone, no matter all the problems short of world wide catastrophe, humankind will survive, as, nature has a natural way to cut population levels: "crime, disease, war, and vice," being, the necessary checks on population." This proposition, as was made by Malthus in 1798, was to cause quite a public stir, then, and yet today. [TOC] Malthus' Life:- Thomas Robert Malthus was born in 1766, at Dorking, a place just south of London. He was the second son of eight children, six of whom were girls. His father, Daniel Malthus, was an ardent

The Classical School ("Ricardians") In the year 1776, David Hume died while Jacques Turgot and Marquis de Condorcet left their government posts. But, in that same year, the intellectual revolution they had contributed to, the Enlightenment , began to bear its principal fruit. It was a year of grand treatises. Adam Smith published his Wealth of Nations , the Abbé de Condillac his Commerce et le Gouvernement Jeremy Bentham his Fragments on Government and Tom Paine his Common Sense . But the big event of 1776 was America. The Mercantilist economic policies of the British state had led to a rebellion and now the colonists established a home-grown liberal republican government more-or-less dedicated to laissez-faire and free trade. Bigger events were yet to happen. By 1789, the French court was bankrupt. For the first time since 1610, the French parliament was called into session, but the bourgeois delegates form their own National Assembly, put forth the "Declaration of the Rights of Man" and make themselves the supreme rulers of France. The absolute monarchy and the attending system of aristocratic and clerical privileges is abolished. In a Paris square, King Louis XVI was beheaded by his own people while, next door in Germany, God Himself met a similar fate at the hands of a mild-mannered university professor . And if anybody in Europe had missed out on these events, Napoleon's armies would soon deliver them to their doorsteps along with the blood, death and misery which accompanied them.

Thomas Malthus (1766-1834) "In October 1838, that is, fifteen months after I had begun my systematic inquiry, I happened to read for amusement Malthus on Population , and being well prepared to appreciate the struggle for existence which everywhere goes on from long- continued observation of the habits of animals and plants, it at once struck me that under these circumstances favourable variations would tend to be preserved, and unfavourable ones to be destroyed. The results of this would be the formation of a new species. Here, then I had at last got a theory by which to work". Charles Darwin, from his autobiography. (1876) This often quoted passage reflects the significance Darwin affords Malthus in formulating his theory of Natural Selection. What "struck" Darwin in Essay on the Principle of Population (1798) was Malthus's observation that in nature plants and animals produce far more offspring than can survive, and that Man too is capable of overproducing if left unchecked. Malthus concluded that unless family size was regulated, man's misery of famine would become globally epidemic and eventually consume Man. Malthus' view that poverty and famine were natural outcomes of population growth and food supply was not popular among social reformers who believed that with proper social structures, all ills of man could be eradicated. Although Malthus thought famine and poverty natural outcomes , the ultimate reason for those outcomes was divine institution. He believed that such natural outcomes were God's way of preventing man from being lazy. Both Darwin and Wallace independantly arrived at similar theories of Natural Selection after reading Malthus. Unlike Malthus, they framed his principle in purely natural terms both in outcome and in ultimate reason. By so doing, they extended Malthus' logic further than Malthus himself could ever take it. They realized that producing more offspring than can survive establishes a competitive environment among siblings, and that the variation among siblings would produce some individuals with a slightly greater chance of survival.

Back to Modern History SourceBook Modern History Sourcebook: Thomas Malthus: Essay on Population, 1798 The Rev. Thomas R. Malthus (1766-1834) began modern analysis of population in terms of "laws" - a classic Enlightenment approach. His arguments were directed againts William Godwin (1756-1836) whose Enquiry Concerning Political Justice argued in favor of a more egalitarian society and economics in order to end poverty. From Thomas Malthus. First Essay on Population (1798) The following Essay owes its origin to a conversation with a friend, on the subject of Mr. Godwin's Essay, on avarice and profusion, in his Enquirer. The discussion, started the general question of the future improvement of society; and the Author at first sat down with an intention of merely stating his thoughts to his friend, upon paper, in a clearer manner than he thought he could do, in conversation. But as the subject opened upon him, some ideas occurred, which he did not recollect to have met with before; and as he conceived, that every, the least light, on a topic so generally interesting, might be received with candour, he determined to put his thoughts in a form for publication.... I think I may fairly make two postulata.

THOMAS ROBERT MALTHUS MALTHUS, THOMAS ROBERT The project of a formal and detailed treatise on population was an afterthought of Malthus. The essay in which he had studied a hypothetic future led him to examine the effects of the principle he had put forward on the past and present state of society; and he undertook an historical examination of these effects, and sought to draw such inferences in relation to the actual state of things as experience seemed to warrant. In its original form he had spoken of no checks to population but those which came under the head either of vice or of misery. In the 1803 edition he introduced the new element of the preventive check supplied by what he calls moral restraint, and is thus enabled to soften some of the harshest conclusions at which he had before arrived. The treatise passed through six editions in his lifetime, and in all of them he introduced various additions and corrections. That of 1816 is the last he revised, and supplies the final text from which it has since been reprinted. It would seem, then, that what has been ambitiously called Malthuss theory of population, instead of being a great discovery as some have represented it, or a poisonous novelty, as others have considered it, is no more than a formal enunciation of obvious, though sometimes neglected, facts. The pretentious language often applied to it by economists is objectionable, as being apt to make us forget that the whole subject with which it deals is as yet very imperfectly understoodthe causes which modify the force of the sexual instinct, and those which lead to variations in fecundity, still awaiting a complete investigation.

Dans cette vision microéconomique, la concurrence est le moteur qui permet la meilleure répartition entre les individus. celle qui voit l’économie comme un circuit, et étudie au niveau macroéconomique les grands agrégats: investissement, consommation, produit etc. Dans cette logique seul l’Etat dispose d’informations suffisantes pour pouvoir coordonner et réguler l’ensemble.
