This book was released on 1991 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Davenant was one of the leading economic pamphleteers of the 1690s. He frequently developed general principles, some of which sound almost like the early writings of Adam Smith. He was, however, a Mercantilist in the sense that he underlined the advantages of a favourable balance of trade as a source of political power, favoured population growth and decried luxury spending. William Petty focused on some practical questions of his times including war finance, monetary reform, relief for the poor. His work contains a veritable cornucopia of terms and concepts that came to dominate economic thinking for the next three centuries; 'full employment' and 'ceteris paribus', the idea of national income as identical to national expenditure, public works as a method of dealing with unemployment etc. However his greatest contribution was the invention of what he called 'political arithmetic', the quantitative estimation of both the stock of national wealth and the flow of national income to determine the appropriate base for taxation.

Book Synopsis Pre-classical Economists: Pierre le Pesant Boisguilbert (1645-1714), George Berkeley (1685-1753), Baron de Montesquieu (1689-1755), Ferdinando Galiani (1727-1787), James Anderson (1739-1808), Dugald Stewart (1753-1828) by : Mark Blaug
Download or read book Pre-classical Economists: Pierre le Pesant Boisguilbert (1645-1714), George Berkeley (1685-1753), Baron de Montesquieu (1689-1755), Ferdinando Galiani (1727-1787), James Anderson (1739-1808), Dugald Stewart (1753-1828) written by Mark Blaug and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 1991 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pierre le Pesant Boisguilbert was considered by Marx as one of the founders of classical political economy. His writings contain a large number of concepts and ideas that reappear in the writings of Quesnay, Cantillon and Adam Smith. George Berkeley - a major figure in the history of philosophical idealism - was the author of 'The Querist', a treatise on the nature of Irish under-development and cures for Irish poverty. Baron de Montesquieu - one of the great 18th century polymaths - is author of the masterpiece 'The Spirit of the Laws' (1748) which, while ostensibly a treatise on law, is actually a study of political organization, types of government, national character and the determining ethos of different societies. It enjoyed enormous success in the 18th century and was almost certainly read and studied by Adam Smith. Ferdinando Galiani was a leading critic of physiocracy and a major 18th century proponent of the subjective theory of value. In 1751 he published 'Della Moneta' which contains some notable chapters on monetary theory, and some brilliant pages on the utility theory of value. James Anderson was a Scottish farmer and a prolific author of tracts on the agricultural development of Scotland and the outstanding policy issues of the last quarter of the 18th century. Dugald Stewart was author of 'Account of the Life and Writings of Adam Smith LLD' (1793) which is one of the earliest, extended commentaries on the works of Adam Smith by one who knew him well.

Book Synopsis The Necessity of Nature by : Mónica García-Salmones Rovira
Download or read book The Necessity of Nature written by Mónica García-Salmones Rovira and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To understand our current world crises, it is essential to study the origins of the systems and institutions we now take for granted. This book takes a novel approach to charting intellectual, scientific, and philosophical histories alongside the development of the international legal order by studying the philosophy and theology of the Scientific Revolution and its impact on European natural law, political liberalism, and political economy. Starting from analysis of the work of Thomas Hobbes, Robert Boyle and John Locke on natural law, the author incorporates a holistic approach that encompasses global matters beyond the foundational matters of treaties and diplomacy. The monograph promotes a sustainable transformation of international law in the context of related philosophy, history, and theology. Tackling issues such as nature, money, necessities, human nature, secularism, and epistemology which underlie natural lawyers' thinking, Dr García-Salmones explains their enduring relevance for international legal studies today.
Book Synopsis Pre-classical Economists: John Law (1671-1729) and Bernard Mandeville (1660-1733) by : Mark Blaug
Download or read book Pre-classical Economists: John Law (1671-1729) and Bernard Mandeville (1660-1733) written by Mark Blaug and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Law was one of those extraordinary personalities in which the 18th century seemed to abound. He held a demand-and-supply theory of value and treated the value of money or the determination of the average level of prices as only a special case of a general theory of value. Law eventually became Minister of Finance in France and was responsible for the greatest speculative frenzy in her history known as the Mississippi Bubble. When the boom collapsed in the closing months of 1720, Law was forced to flee France, permanently discredited, and spent his declining years as a professional gambler in Venice. In The Fable of the Bees: Private Vices, Public BenefitsBernard Mandeville argued that self-interest was a moral vice. Mandeville's satire was deliberately designed to give offence as if to encourage the re-examination of traditional beliefs : conspicuous consumption of luxury goods, the fashionable display of foreign imports, crime, and even natural disasters like the Fire of London all promote the 'division of labour' (Mandeville's term) and contribute to a brisk trade and fall in unemployment, whereas such supposed virtues as thrift and charity contribute to poverty and stagnation. The Fable of the Beeswas widely read in the 18th century and criticized by all the leading thinkers of the day.
