Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays in Political Economy In some of the Essays in this volume, which Provost and Senior Fellows of Trinity College have honoured the author by publishing in the Dublin University Press Series, slight changes of phrase have been made, but for the most part they are reprinted without alteration. Written at different times and on different subjects, they naturally exhibit some diversities of view, and readers who dissent from the author's reasoning on some questions may concur with it in the main on others. Yet threads of connexion will be found in the method of investigation and in some fundamental ideas. The conception, for example, is followed throughout that every branch of the philosophy of society, morals and political economy not excepted, needs investigation and development by historical induction; and that not only the moral and economic condition of society, but its moral and economic theories and ideas, are the results of the course of national history and the state of national culture. Contemporary social phenomena, such as the statistician explores, though indispensable to the researches and verifications of the economist and the moralist, are regarded in these Essays as but the latest links in chains of sequence connecting the past and the future, and us marking steps in a moment in which there is both continuity and change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Political Economy We must remark, also, that the constant appear ance of money in every exchange has overturned and misled all our ideas: men have ended in think ing that money was true riches, and that to multiply it was to multiply services and products. Hence the prohibitory system; hence paper money; hence the celebrated aphorisrn, What one gains the other loses 5 and all the errors which have ruined the earth, and embrued it with blood.* After much research it has been found, that in order to make the two services exchanged of equivalent value, and in order to render the exchange equitable, the best means was to allow it to be free. How ever plausible, at first sight, the intervention of the State might be, it was soon perceived that it is always Oppressive to one or other of the contracting parties. When we look into these subjects, we are always compelled to reason upon this maxim, that equal value results from liberty We have, in fact, no other means of knowing whether, at a given moment, two services are of the same value, but that of examining whether they can be readily and freely exchanged. Allow the State, which is the same thing as force, to interfere on one side or the other, and from that moment all the means of appreciation will be complicated and entangled, This error will be combated in a. Pamphlet, entitled Cursed Money. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Some Unsettled Questions of Political Economy A prejudice appears to exist in many quarters against the theory in question, on the supposition of its being Opposed to one of the most valuable results of modern political philosophy, the doctrine of Free dom of Trade between nation and nation. The opinions now laid before the reader are presented as corollaries necessarily following from the principles upon which Free Trade itself rests. The writer has also been careful to point out, that from these Opinions no justification can be derived for any proleceifig duty, or other preference given to domestic over foreign industry. But in regard to those duties on foreign commodities which do not operate as proteo tion, but are maintained solely for revenue, and which do not touch either. The necessaries of life or the materials and instruments of production, it is his Opinion that any relaxation of such duties, beyond what may be required by the interest of the revenue itself, should in general be made contingent upon the adoption of some corresponding degree of freedom of trade with this country, by the nation from which the commodities are imported.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on Political Economy The investing of foreign capital in this country has been a great factor in keeping up the wages of our workmen. It has offset the depressing effect of the large amount of labor that has been thrown on our labor market by immigra tion. It is estimated that there is between eight and ten thousand million dollars of foreign capital invested in this country, this brings an income of fully three hundred million dollars annually to its owners. So we see for the United States to pay its debts we must export at least threehundred million more than we import. This has put a leverage in the hands of foreign bankers, who control the foreign capital invested here. By taking their interest in gold they can depress the markets at will. By shipping in gold they can boom our markets. Market prices should be controlled by natural law 5 but to-day they are controlled to a great extent by foreign capitalists who can manipulate our gold supply at will. If the interest on foreign invest ments were paid in gold for two years we would have drained off all our gold supply. The effect of foreign capital going into South America and Australia so rapidly was to give an unnatural stimulus to business, creating an abnormal demand for labor at the time. As a consequence the cost of production rose rapidly, and when the English investor commenced to stop sending capital and demanded a return on his investment, the inevitable crash came.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Politics and Economics: An Essay on the Nature of the Principles of Political Economy, Together With a Survey of Recent Legislation In attempting to survey Recent Legislation I have done my best to ignore party politics alto gether, and to judge fairly of each measure by the same standard, - a standard which many men in both parties would accept. I have endeavoured to note the clearest and most forcible expressions of Opinion by whomsoever they were uttered, and thus to set forth personal Opinions, not the views of any party. While these sheets have been passing through the press I have had the advantage Of suggestions from Professor Sidgwick, Professor Nicholson, the Hon. J. W. Mansfield, and other friends.

My deepest obligation is to my first teacher in Philosophy, Ethics, and Psychology, the late Professor George Paxton Young, LL.D. For his careful training in methods and his skilful guidance in philosophical problems, and for the privilege of coming into close contact with a teacher of such noble character, pure life, and lofty ideals, I feel profoundly grateful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay Upon the Principles of Political Economy: Designed as a Manual for Practical Men Definition of the Science. - Poiitical economy may be de fined the science of the nature and causes of the Wealth of Nations. The most common use of the word economy, (compounded ofthe Greek auroa', a house, and v0p09, its law or regulation, ) was a household term, designating a partien lar course of conduct and management, by the observance of which, the expense of a family may be diminished, its income increased, and its advance towards wealth and in dependence accelerated. Nearly allied to this is its Signi fication, when used as denoting a science of political character. For it considers nations as the families, and a whole people as the household, whose increase of reve nue and pecuniary advancement it considers. It' purposes to explain the best and most effectual ways of producing wealth; the just and proper rules of its distribution; and how it is naturally and most advantageously consumed. The constant object of its inquiry is wealth, and it pro mises to considerit in every stage and manner of its exist ence. To him, therefore, who would become a student of its doctrines, it must be of the highest importance to form a clear and correct notion of what constitutes wealth, and for what reasons.

M'culloch, Essay on Interest and Value of Money, by John Locke Dr. Smith has not explicitly stated what was the precise meaning attached by him to the term wealth but he most commonly describes it to be 'the annual produce of land and labour.' Mr. Malthus, how ever, has justly objected to this definition, that it refers to the sources of wealth, before we know what wealth is, and that it includes all the useless products of the earth, as well as those which are appropriated and enjoyed by man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Political Economy IN the following pages the writer has made the attempt to construct a skeleton of Political Economy upon the basis of purely physical laws, and thus to obtain for its conclusions that absolute certainty which belongs to the positive sciences. The casual association of its teaching with moral philosophy, is the circumstance to which is to be attributed that metaphysical bias, manifested by almost all Eco nomical writers, in their method of investigation, and which has con ducted them to such vague, hypothetical, and unsatisfactory results. It has, indeed, been made matter of set purpose to confine its exami nation of the laws of the production of the objects which constitute wealth, to such of them as are laws of the human mind, as may be seen by consulting the Essay of Mr. J. S. Mill On the Defini tion of Political Economy, and the method of Investigation proper to it. The issue, nevertheless, has been, that grossly material estimation of man, which disregards all that is truly human in his nature, and has brought upon Political Economy, thus worked out, the name of the Dismal Science.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fallacy of Saving: A Study in Economics The following essay is an expansion of one written several years ago, and recently read to the Political Economy Circle of the National Liberal Club. The character of the criticism it then met with from some of the most competent members removed any hesita tion I might formerly have felt as to the chance of my being right in an argument which will strike most readers at first sight as a strange paradox, and which runs counter not only to the standard authorities, but to the views of many of the younger economists who are supposed to have thrown off the old orthodoxy.
