Bastiat was born in [[Bayonne]], [[Aquitaine]], [[France]]. His public career as an economist began only in [[1844]], and was cut short by his untimely death in [[1850]]. Bastiat had caught tuberculosis, probably during his tours throughout France to promote libertarian ideas, and that illness eventually prevented him from making further speeches (particularly at the legislative assembly to which he was elected in [[1848]] and [[1849]]) and took his life. Frédéric Bastiat died in [[Rome, Italy]] on [[December 24]], [[1850]]. | |||
