Fourierist scholars started questioning very early the place occupied by Fourier in the field of philosophy. His contribution as a philosopher has been studied, and his relationship to philosophical thought analysed. If the cartesian paradigm is now well identified as the paradigm of absolute doubt, it is quite surprising that Leibnitz’s conception of harmony has never been compared with Fourier’s. Upon examination, Fourier’s thought clearly appears to have been an offshoot of the modern thought structured after Descartes and Leibnitz.
Louis Ucciani enseigne la philosophie à l’Université de Franche-Comté. Il collabore depuis leur création aux Cahiers Charles Fourier.
