This article examines the ruling fraction of the Breton vegetable farming bourgeoisie. It presents the latter's social properties and its role in collective employer actions that allow the reproduction of its dominant social position. Based on a literature review of regional and national press, this text revisits two conservative collective mobilizations: the arson of the tax center and the Mutualité Sociale Agricole of the sub-prefecture of Morlaix in September 2014, and the "commando" operation that broke the strike of the Caen-Ouistreham port dockers in May 2015. These targets express the anti-tax and liberal ideology that animates collective action.
