Post-Print from HAL

Abstract: The edict of the Paulette (1604) is an important legal act, which produced many institutional changes. Offices appeared in the XIIIth century in France, thus earlier than the edict. However, by giving property rights and inalienable handover to officeholders, in return of paying a tax that is valued at 1/60th of the office value, the edict had an important impact on office nature. Using data and documents that we picked up at Archives nationales and in the Sully collection, our article emphasizes the consequences of financialization of offices on public finances and on the social-political structures.
