Several years ago \textit{R. Balian} and \textit{M. Vénéroni} [Nucl. Physics B 408, No. 3, 445-484 (1993)] proposed a time-dependent variational principle. This principle has been applied to various quantum many-body problems, equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. The author extends the above formalism to quantum field theory.
