Synopsis The Past and the Present of Political Economy (Classic Reprint) by : Richard Theodore Ely
Excerpt from The Past and the Present of Political Economy The perfectly logical conclusion drawn from this hypothesis, was that government should abstain from all interference in industrial life. Laissez-faire, kt'issez-passer - let things alone, let them take care of themselves, - was the oft-repeated of a priori economists.

Synopsis A History of Political Economy (Classic Reprint) by : John K. Ingram
Excerpt from A History of Political Economy It is with great pleasure that I embrace the opportunity afforded me by the publishers of Dr. Ingram's "History of Political Economy" to commend the book to the attention of the American public. Dr. Ingram needs no introduction to our students of economics. His work in the Encyclopaedia Britannica has attracted marked attention wherever earnest thinkers are studying the social and economic problems of our time, whether in Europe or America. The present treatise deserves especial notice, as the first serious attempt by a properly qualified English writer to present a view of the progress of economic thought The works of M'Culloch and Twiss on the same subject were of value only because there was nothing else on the same topic. They testify eloquently to the exceedingly primitive state of the history of economic thought and policy which existed in their day. The work of Blanqui, recently translated into English, is rather a history of economic systems (and a poor one even as such) than of economic theories and doctrines. Up to the time of the appearance of the nineteenth volume of the Encyclopedia Britannica there was no essay on the subject in English which could be considered a very valuable one. We now have a treatise which will compare favourably with any work of similar compass in any other language.

Synopsis The National System of Political Economy (Classic Reprint) by : Friedrich List
Excerpt from The National System of Political Economy It was this testimony to the practical influence of List's economical theories which first attracted my attention to his writings, and a perusal of them induced me to undertake the translation of the following work, with a view to affording English readers an opportunity of judging for themselves as to the truth of his statements and the soundness of his argu ments. The work consists of four parts - the History, the Theory, the Systems, and the Politics of National Economy. It is important to bear in mind that all were written before 1844, and the fourth part in particular treats of political circum stances and of commercial policies which have now for the most part ceased to exist. The Corn Laws, the Navigation Laws, and the generally protectionist tariff of Great Britain were then still unrepealed; the manufacturing industry of Germany was still in its infancy, and the comparatively moderate tariff of the German States still permitted England to supply them with the greater part of the manufactured goods which they required. At first sight, therefore, it would seem an anachronism to place before the reader of to-day a work having special re lation to a state of things which existed forty years ago. The principles, however, enunciated by List are in their main features as applicable at one time as at another, and it will be found that they possess two especially powerful claims to consideration at the present moment. In the first place, there is good reason for believing that they have directly inspired the commercial policy of two of the greatest nations of the world, Germany and the United States of America; and in the next, they supply a definite scientific basis for those protectionist doctrines which, al though acted upon by our English-speaking colonies and held by not a few practical men as well as by some com mercial economists in this country, have hitherto been only partially and inadequately formulated by English writers. The fundamental idea of List's theory will be seen to be the free import of agricultural products and raw materials combined with an effective but not excessive protection (by means of customs duties) of native manufacturing industry against foreign competition. According to his views, the most efficient support of native production of agricultural products and raw materials is the maintenance within the nation of flourishing manufacturing industry thus protected. The system which he advocates differs, therefore, on the one hand from the unconditionally free import system of one-sided free trade adopted by England, and on the other from the system now apparently approved by Prince Bismarck, of imposing protective duties on the import of food and raw materials as well as on that of manufactured goods.

Synopsis Principles of Political Economy (Classic Reprint) by : Charles Gide
Excerpt from Principles of Political Economy The successive French editions of the work have undergone numerous and important changes, - changes not so much in the general scope and spirit of the book as in the manner of presenting certain sections of the subject. The fundamental purpose has remained precisely the same: to give the reader a plain statement of the accepted principles of economics a summary of the unsettled problems of the science, and a clear, brief, and impartial outline of the various solutions that have been proposed.

Synopsis History of Political Economy in Europe (Classic Reprint) by : Jerome-Adolphe Blanqui
Excerpt from History of Political Economy in Europe To attempt a narration of these experiences in Europe from the earliest period - their successes and their fail ures - was the task that M. Blanqui proposed to himself in writing the history under consideration. The result of his labors has been of necessity imperfect, because the material for constructing a complete record does not exist; and because the restriction of the discussion of such material as is available, which the author at the outset seems to have prescribed to himself, namely, two small 12mo volumes (in the French edition), did not admit of the entering at any great length into details, or the accomplishment of much other than the presenta tion of the more important economic transactions in the history of Europe, and the extent of their influences in promoting or retarding the world's material progress and development. Nevertheless the book as it exists to day, with its record terminating in 1842, is in the highest degree instructive, and in a popular sense, exceedingly attractive. It is moreover, one of the comparatively few books published during the last half century which has attained a world-wide reputation, and its translation and present re-publication fills a place, which so far as the observation of the writer extends, is not supplied by any other work in the English language.

Synopsis National System of Political Economy (Classic Reprint) by : Friedrich List
Excerpt from National System of Political Economy Frederick List was born, the 6th August, 1789, at Reutlingen, a free city of Suabia. His early education was incomplete. At the Classical School he exhibited so little taste for its studies, that his father withdrew him; but as he showed equal indisposition to learn his father's business, he was subsequently left to shape his own education. This he did, however, to such purpose, that we find him, in 1816, holding an appointment in the Central Administration of Wurtemberg, in which he justified the confidence placed in him by a distinguished statesman, the Minister Wangenheim, who offered his young assistant, in the following year, the chair of Political Economy, in the University of Tubingen. List accepted this position. He tells us in the Preface to his National System, that the principle of free trade was one of the first encountered in his new career. "It seemed to me at first reasonable; but gradually I satisfied myself that the whole doctrine was applicable and sound only when adopted by all nations. Thus I was led to the idea of nationality; I found that the theorists kept always in view mankind and man, never separate nations.

Synopsis A Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy (Classic Reprint) by : Karl Marx
Excerpt from A Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy I omit a general introduction which I had prepared, as on second thought any anticipation of results that are still to be proven, seemed to me objectionable, and the reader who wishes to follow me at all, must make up his mind to pass from the special to the general. On the other hand, some remarks as to the course of my own politico-economic studies may be in place here.
