Lettre de Defrance à Bion, sur sa réponse aux objections contre l'établissement de la régie intéressée des postes et messageries

"Lettre de Defrance à Bion, sur sa réponse aux objections contre l'établissement de la Régie intéressée des Postes et Messageries" by Defrance is a political treatise written in the late 18th century. The book presents a detailed argument against Bion's defense of a specific administrative system concerning France's postal and messaging services, shedding light on the complexities of governance and public finance during this transformative period in history. In this letter, Defrance engages directly with Bion, critiquing his reasoning and asserting the superiority of the "Ferme" system over the "Régie" that Bion defends. Defrance argues that the previous administration under the Régie has proven to be flawed and corrupt, citing the necessity for transparency and accountability in government finance. He draws historical parallels, invokes the principles of notable political writers like Montesquieu, and emphasizes the need for a financial administration that prioritizes public welfare over personal gain. Through this correspondence, Defrance articulates his views on governance, aiming to convince public officials of the potential pitfalls of the Régie system while advocating for a more responsible and fair approach to managing France’s postal service.
