La mauvaise presse dont jouissent souvent les idées utilitaristes de Jeremy Bentham en France a longtemps caché la richesse des rapports que sa pensée entretient avec ce pays. Bentham a revendiqué l’héritage des philosophes et les traductions d’Etienne Dumont ont établi sa notoriété dans le monde francophone. Pourtant, dès la génération suivante, ses idées ont été souvent mal comprises et il a fallu attendre les travaux d’Halévy, puis de Foucault et de Lacan pour que des intellectuels se saisissent de l’utilitarisme benthamien.Dans cet ouvrage pluridisciplinaire des spécialistes internationaux mettent en lumière un héritage critique souvent négligé. Ils explorent les liens entre la philosophie ‘anglaise’ de Bentham et celle des Lumières françaises et analysent l’engagement du philosophe dans la Révolution. Ils réexaminent notamment sa collaboration éditoriale avec Dumont et l’avancement d’une certaine version du ‘benthamisme’ créée par ces traductions partout en Europe. Le volume s’achève sur une analyse de la réception française de Bentham au vingtième siècle et de la redécouverte de son épistémologie.Traversant les frontières entre l’histoire, la philosophie et la science économique, Bentham et la France: fortune et infortunes de l’utilitarisme constitue un apport majeur aux études sur Bentham et offre de nouvelles perspectives sur les liens intellectuels entre la France et l’Angleterre du siècle des Lumières jusqu’à nos jours.

Jeremy Bentham, the founder of classical utilitarianism, was a seminal figure in the history of modern political thought. This lively monograph presents the numerous French connections of an emblematic British thinker. Perhaps more than any other intellectual of his time, Bentham engaged with contemporary events and people in France, even writing in French in the 1780s. Placing Bentham's thought in the context of the French-language Enlightenment through to the post-Revolutionary era, Emmanuelle de Champs makes the case for a historical study of 'Global Bentham'. Examining previously unpublished sources, she traces the circulation of Bentham's letters, friends, manuscripts, and books in the French-speaking world. This study in transnational intellectual history reveals how utilitarianism, as a doctrine, was both the product of, and a contribution to, French-language political thought at a key time in European history. The debates surrounding utilitarianism in France cast new light on the making of modern Liberalism.
