Abstract EN:
La sociologie francaise a ete creee par auguste comte, auquel a succede emile durkheim qui l'a definitivement fondee. Mais ces deux grands hommes ne se sont pas connus, puisque le second est ne apres la mort du premier. Or la continuite theorique entre ces deux peres fondateurs n'est pas aussi evidente qu'on pourrait le penser. Il nous faut trouver des sociologues inconnus qui comblent le vide entre eux. Nous etudions le developpement de la sociologie apres comte parmi ses disciples. La tendance scientiste a ete representee par emile littre et sa revue philosophie positive, tandis que pierre laffitte et la revue occidentale ont pris fidelement la succession du positivisme religieux et moral. Dans le premier groupe, guarin de vitry a marque un grand essor theorique avec sa notion de 'consensus collective', qui laisse presager l'arrivee de la sociologie de durkheim.
Abstract FR:
The french sociology was created by auguste comte, and inherited and definitely founded by emile durkheim. But the latter was bord after the death of the former, and the theoretical continuity between them is not so obvious. We must therefore find some sociologists that can fill the gap between these two giants. We want to study the development of the post-comtian sociology among his disciples. The tendancy of pure scientific concern is represented by emile littre and his revue philosophie positive, and the religious or moral aspect of comtian positivism is faithfully taken over by pierre laffitte with the revue occidentale. In the first group, guarin de vitry has made great theoretical strides with his notion of consensus collective, which presages the durkheimian sociology.
