François Huet (1814{u2013}1869), Professor of Philosophy at the University of Ghent, is known for his attempt to reconcile Christianity with socialism in Le Règne Social du Christianisme (1853). The book clearly belongs to a distinctively Belgian tradition of 'liberal socialism'. Drawing upon archival material, we try to clarify the origins of Huet's theory of property rights. We focus on two intimately related questions: (1) Have the core ideas formulated by Huet in Le Règne been expressed and discussed before the publication of the book? (2) In what sense have reflections upon the science of economics contributed to Huet's views?

François Huet: militaire et résistant, homme de convictions. Son destin le conduisit à traverser la période guerrière de la France, de l’entre-deux-guerres jusqu’à la fin de la colonisation. Saint-cyrien, il participa à la pacification du Maroc où il sera influencé par Lyautey pour qui être respecté, c’est être exemplaire. En mai 1944, il sera chef militaire du Vercors où 4 000 hommes combattirent 15 000 Allemands. Homme de réflexion, il commandera l’École de guerre mais restera un homme de terrain (Suez, bataille d’Alger). Il n’oubliera jamais ses engagements moraux lorsqu’il fut confronté à la question de la torture. Contributeur des nouvelles doctrines autour du nucléaire, il fut aussi partisan d’une défense européenne.
