Dugas is a significant treatise focused on the organization of postal services and relay stations, written during the late 18th century, specifically around the time of the early French Republic. This book falls under the category of a political and administrative publication and addresses the state of postal services in France post-revolution, exploring necessary improvements to ensure their efficiency and sustainability. In this detailed letter addressed to a governmental representative, Dugas provides a critical analysis of the postal system's current condition, highlighting issues such as financial instability, administrative inefficiency, and the impact of external circumstances like the depreciation of paper currency. He advocates for a mixed administrative model that balances accountability and incentives, debating against the privatization of postal services in favor of retaining governmental oversight. Throughout his discourse, Dugas emphasizes the importance of the postal system in facilitating communication and commerce, arguing for reforms that ensure its productivity while safeguarding its public service integrity. The letter culminates in a proposal advocating for a stable leadership structure for postal management that draws on the experience and interest of existing administrators rather than external entrepreneurs.
