Charles Comte (1782-1837) was a French lawyer, journalist and political writer. In 1814 he found Le Censeur‎, the liberal journal with Charles Dunoyer. In 1820, he was found guilty of attacks against the King and fled first to Switzerland and then to England. In England he became acquainted with Jeremy Bentham. In 1825 he returned to France. In 1827 he published the book that made his name and earned him le prix Montyon. The book was Traité de législation (4 volumes, in-8) (A Treaty of law) which outlined laws governing the development of companies and the reasons why development might be held back.
