Abstract

Cet article examine la place structurante de Rousseau dans l'itinéraire intellectuel d'Alfred Espinas. Loin de relever d'un intérêt circonstanciel, la lecture espinassienne de Rousseau constitue un « antagonisme constitutif » à partir duquel Espinas élabore une sociologie fondée sur le caractère naturel de la vie sociale et sur l'organicité des sociétés. De Des Sociétés animales aux écrits des années 1890, le contractualisme rousseauiste s'impose ainsi comme un véritable contre-modèle théorique, associé à l'artificialisme, à l'abstraction et à une « morale et une politique régressives ». Cette confrontation éclaire, en retour, les conditions de légitimation de la sociologie naissante.
