Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Political Economy It has seemed to the author that one difficulty with many economic treatises is that they have no one clear aim, that they are, so to speak, straddles. This difficulty he is seeking to avoid, and consequently he has had only one class in mind in this revision. It is first of all the general reader for whom the book is designed, and it is the general reader whose needs have been kept constantly in view. For him it primarily exists, and to his requirements have been entirely subordinated all considerations based on its possible use as a text-book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Political Economy The favourable reception of the Author's Guide to the Study of Political Economy, translated and published in England and America at the suggestion and under the auspices of the late Professor Jevons, paved the way for an English version of what was begun as a third edition of that work, though it has finally shaped itself into a completely new book. In preparing the following pages, enriched by the author with important changes and valuable additions, both he and the Translator have received much encouragement and aid from the appreciative reviews of the Italian original published in the Journal of the Statistical Society, and in Professor Edgeworth's Economic Journal, as well as from the paragraph devoted to it in the Nation (New York). Following a hint given in the last-named periodical, the Translator has compiled are Index of Subjects; he has also enlarged the Index of Authors, and has added, under the designation of Sources, important anonymous works, periodicals and collections frequently referred to.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Economy: An Introduction to Political Economy This treatise was written several years back, and was intended to form the first portion of a work on Political Economy, under the divisions indicated in the first chapter. Several chapters of the second part, dealing with Cosmopolitan Economy, were also written, but of late years the claims of an absorbing profession have prevented further progress with the work con templated. The author has now resolved to submit this portion alone to the public judg ment; his excuses are that he has no near prospect of being able to complete his task, and that in this first part he has been led to some conclusions, which differ from those of previous writers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Political Economy This work is intended primarily for the use of students. The leading principles are stated, as far as possible, without the introduction of controversial matter. At the same time, throughout the work indications are given of the points still in dispute and of the difficulties involved in the further development of the principles and theories of which an elementary exposition is given. The work is based on the "Principles of Political Economy" (3 vols.) by the same author. It is, however, not simply an abstract. In the first four books the material used has been almost entirely recast. In the last book it was thought better to omit certain topics altogether rather than attempt any further condensation of the argument. In order to keep the volume within reasonable limits the greater part of the historical matter which forms a characteristic feature of the larger work has been excluded, though the results of the application of the historical method have been retained. Little space also was available for the history of economic thought and doctrines. In the text, however, the importance of these and other omitted topics has been emphasised, and the student is recommended throughout to supplement his reading by reference to special works.

Download or read book Political Economy Classic Reprint written by Nassau William Senior and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Political Economy Definition of the Science. - We propose in the following treatise to give an outline of the science which treats of the Nature, the Production, and the Distribution of Wealth. To that science we give the name of Political Economy. Our readers must be aware that that term has often been used in a much wider sense. The earlier writers who assumed the name of Political Economists avowedly treated not of Wealth but of Government. Mercier de la Riviere entitled his work The Natural and Essential Organization of Society, and professed to propose an organization "which shall necessarily produce all the happiness that can be enjoyed on earth." Sir James Steuart states, that "the principal object of the science is to secure a certain fund of subsistence for all the inhabitants, to obviate every circumstance which may render it precarious, and to provide everything necessary for supplying the wants of the society." The modern continental writers have in general entered into an equally extensive inquiry. "Political Economy," says M. Storch, "is the science of the natural laws which determine the prosperity of nations, that is to say, their wealth and their civilization." M. Sismondi considers "the physical welfare of man, so far as it can be the work of government, as the object of Political Economy." "Political Economy," says M. Say, "is the economy of society; a science combining the results of our observations on the nature and functions of the different parts of the social body." The modern writers of the English school have in general professed to limit their attention to the theory of Wealth; but some of the most eminent among them, after having expressed their intention to confine themselves within what appears to us to be their proper province, have invaded that of the general legislator or the statesman.

Download or read book An Introduction to Political Economy written by Richard T. Ely and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Political Economy In offering to the reader this revision of the Introduction, to Political Economy, it seems advisable to explain some of the circumstances which have called it forth, and which have consequently determined its character. In particular is it important to explain its relation to the author's Outlines of Economics, in order to avoid confusion and possible inconvenience. The "Introduction" was first published in 1889, and has since then without change passed through many editions. The "Outlines," which appeared in 1893, was originally intended to be simply a revised edition of the "Introduction," but finally grew into something quite different. It was therefore decided not to withdraw the earlier work, and in the preface to the "Outlines" it was stated that "in any future revisions of the two books an effort will be made to develop still further the peculiarities of each; the aim of the 'Introduction' being to furnish chiefly historical and descriptive material; the aim of the 'Outlines' being to give a systematic sketch of theory." Since the appearance of the "Outlines" the author has been gratified to learn from many sources that his course at that time has met with approval; and in this revision he seeks to carry out the intention to which reference has just been made. It has not been attempted, however, to make the revision in any way a new book, but rather to keep it essentially the same book while developing it in the direction indicated. The chief purpose of the revision has been to remove obvious defects, to bring statistical statements down to date, and to change theoretical expositions, so far as the advance of economic thought clearly requires that this should be done. On the other hand, it is altogether foreign to the purpose of this work to enter into theoretical controversies.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Political Economy Some months ago, the present publishers of Dr. Wayland's book requested the writer to make a revision Of that work. Fully' believing that the doctrines and the general aim and methods of that eminent instructor on this subject were sound and wise, and that the press ing want of the class-room in our institutions of higher education, was not fully met by any one of the excellent treatises before the public, be consented and assumed the undertaking. It was soon found, however, that a mere revision of the book would not accomplish the desired object. Comparatively few pages of the original work could be used as they stood. In the result, while scarcely any change has been made in the opinions presented, the arrangement and the forms of statement have been quite generally recast with considerable condensation and many needed additions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A System of Political Economy It is necessary that I should write a few words, by way of preface, in order that I may if possible prevent any of those misconceptions which the title I have adopted may be apt to create, and lest the reader should suppose that I write as a Political Economist; perhaps a little syllogism, though not an entirely true one, will serve best to explain my object in writing. Those who write a treatise on a subject should first study the subject. Political Economy is a subject, therefore, before writing on it, I should have studied it. Those who have studied it become by reason of their study Free Traders. I am a Protectionist, ergo, I have not studied the subject, and ought not therefore to write upon it. If, then, I do not understand Political Economy, why do I write on it? My object then in writing upon it is not in order that I may elucidate Political Economy, but in order that I may explain by means of it certain philosophical views.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Scope and Method of Political Economy The nature of the topics discussed in the following pages is sufficiently indicated in the introductory chapter, and a lengthy preface is therefore unnecessary. The abstract discussion of methods may appear to some to have mainly an academic interest, since it does not directly extend our knowledge of economic phenomena. Whilst, however, we ought to be upon our guard against allowing any such discussion to obscure the greater importance of actual economic investigations, the subject is one to which all students of economics must necessarily give some attention in the course of their reading, and its indirect bearing on the solution of practical economic questions is very far indeed from being without importance.
