Abstract: In the beginning of the Second World War, the French physicist, Yves Rocard, published a book entitled Théorie des Oscillateurs (Theory of Oscillators). In Chapter V, he designed a mathemat- ical model consisting of a set of three nonlinear differential equations and allowing to account for economic cycles. Numerical integration of his model has highlighted a chaotic attractor. Its analysis with classical tools such as bifurcation diagram and Lyapunov Characteristic Exponents has con- firmed the chaotic features of its solution. It follows that Rocard’s 1941 chaotic econometric model has thus most likely preceded Lorenz’ butterfly of twenty-two years. Moreover, apart this historical discovery which upsets historiography, it is also established that this “new old” three-dimensional autonomous dynamical system is a new jerk system whose solution exhibits a chaotic attractor the topology of which varies, from a double scroll attractor to a M ̈obius-strip and then to a toroidal attractor, according to the values of a control parameter.
