DESCRIPTION:We analyze the conflict between King Louis XV and the venal off
 ice-holders who were members of the French Parliaments throughout the 18th 
 century. There are contrasting views as to the nature of this confrontation
 . We consider that the Parliaments cooperated with the King as long as thei
 r rents were protected. On the other hand\, they opposed political measures
  that were likely to harm them. In particular\, the introduction of a compe
 ting body of civil servants\, the intendants\, was a major cause of conflic
 t as they were responsible for the enforcement of reforms that reduced the 
 privileges of office-holders. We propose an analytical narrative of the end
  of the French Old Regime and provide an empirical test of our predictions.
  The data suggest that the political opposition of the French Parliaments w
 as primarily a response to the King's reform agenda on matters that would r
 educe their income and political power.Discussion: Joël Felix\, professor
