Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This two-volume collection provides a comprehensive overview of the past seventy years of public choice research, written by experts in the fields surveyed. The individual chapters are more than simple surveys, but provide readers with both a sense of the progress made and puzzles that remain. Most are written with upper level undergraduate and graduate students in economics and political science in mind, but many are completely accessible to non-expert readers who are interested in Public Choice research. The two-volume set will be of broad interest to social scientists, policy analysts, and historians"--

This book was released on 2016-08-03 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Library of Choice Literature and Encyclopaedia of Universal Authorship, Vol. 2 of 10: The Masterpieces of the Standard Writers of All Nations and All Times The result of these great discoveries I am not here concerned to examine, except so far as they aided in diminishing the energy of the warlike spirit. And the way in w ich they effected this may be easily stated. As long as it was generally be lieved that the wealth of a country consists of its gold, it was of course also believed that the sole object of trade is to increase the in ux of the precious metals; it, there fore, became natural that Government should be ex coted to take measures by which such in ux could be secured. This, however, could only be done by draining other countries of their gold; a result which the for precisel the same reason, strenuo ous y resisted. 'iy'he consequence was, that any idea of real reciprocity was impossible: every commercial treaty was an attempt made by one nation to outwit another; every new tariff was a declaration of hostility; and that which ought to be the most peaceable of all pursuits became one of the causes of those national jealousies and national ani mosities by which war is mainly promoted. But when it was once clearly understood that gold and silver are not wealth, but are merel the representatives of wealth; when men began to see that wealth itself solely consists of the value which skill and labor can add to the raw material, and that money is of no possible use to a nation except to measure and circulate their riches; when these great truths were recog nized, all the old notions respecting the balance of trade, and the supreme im orto ance of the precious metals, at once fe l to the ground. These enormous errors being dispersed, the true theory of barter was easily worked out. It was perceived, that if commerce is allowed to be free, its advan tages will be shared by eve country which engages in it; that, in the a sence of mono po y, the benefits of trade are of necessity reci rocal; and tha so far from depending on t e amount of go (i received, they simply arise from the facility with which a nation gets rid of those commodities which it can produce most cheaply, and receives in re.

Download or read book The Broadview Anthology of British Literature Volume 2 The Renaissance and the Early Seventeenth Century Third Edition written by Joseph Black and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2016-03-14 with total page 1319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In all six of its volumes The Broadview Anthology of British Literature presents British literature in a truly distinctive light. Fully grounded in sound literary and historical scholarship, the anthology takes a fresh approach to many canonical authors, and includes a wide selection of work by lesser-known writers. The anthology also provides wide-ranging coverage of the worldwide connections of British literature, and it pays attention throughout to issues of race, gender, class, and sexual orientation. It includes comprehensive introductions to each period, providing in each case an overview of the historical and cultural as well as the literary background. It features accessible and engaging headnotes for all authors, extensive explanatory annotations, and an unparalleled number of illustrations and contextual materials. Innovative, authoritative and comprehensive, The Broadview Anthology of British Literature has established itself as a leader in the field. The full anthology comprises six bound volumes, together with an extensive website component; the latter has been edited, annotated, and designed according to the same high standards as the bound book component of the anthology, and is accessible by using the passcode obtained with the purchase of one or more of the bound volumes. For the third edition of this volume a considerable number of changes have been made. Newly prepared, for example, is a substantial selection from Baldassare Castiglione’s The Courtier, presented in Thomas Hoby’s influential early modern English translation. Thomas Kyd’s The Spanish Tragedy is another major addition. Also new to the anthology are excerpts from Thomas Dekker’s plague pamphlets. We have considerably expanded our representation of Elizabeth I’s writings and speeches, as well as providing several more cantos from Edmund Spenser’s Faerie Queene and adding selections from Sir Philip Sidney’s Arcadia. We have broadened our coverage, too, to include substantial selections of Irish, Gaelic Scottish, and Welsh literature. (Perhaps most notable of the numerous authors in this section are two extraordinary Welsh poets, Dafydd ap Gwilym and Gwerful Mechain.) Mary Sidney Herbert’s writings now appear in the bound book instead of on the companion website. Margaret Cavendish, previously included in volume 3 of the full anthology, will now also be included in this volume; we have added a number of her poems, with an emphasis on those with scientific themes. The edition features two new Contexts sections: a sampling of “Tudor and Stuart Humor,” and a section on “Levellers, Diggers, Ranters, and Covenanters.” New materials on emblem books and on manuscript culture have also been added to the “Culture: A Portfolio” contexts section. There are many additions the website component as well—including Thomas Deloney’s Jack of Newbury also published as a stand-alone BABL edition). We are also expanding our online selection of transatlantic material, with the inclusion of writings by John Smith, William Bradford, and Anne Bradstreet.

Download or read book Envy in Politics written by Gwyneth H. McClendon and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How envy, spite, and the pursuit of admiration influence politics Why do governments underspend on policies that would make their constituents better off? Why do people participate in contentious politics when they could reap benefits if they were to abstain? In Envy in Politics, Gwyneth McClendon contends that if we want to understand these and other forms of puzzling political behavior, we should pay attention to envy, spite, and the pursuit of admiration--all manifestations of our desire to maintain or enhance our status within groups. Drawing together insights from political philosophy, behavioral economics, psychology, and anthropology, McClendon explores how and under what conditions status motivations influence politics. Through surveys, case studies, interviews, and an experiment, McClendon argues that when concerns about in-group status are unmanaged by social conventions or are explicitly primed by elites, status motivations can become drivers of public opinion and political participation. McClendon focuses on the United States and South Africa—two countries that provide tough tests for her arguments while also demonstrating that the arguments apply in different contexts. From debates over redistribution to the mobilization of collective action, Envy in Politics presents the first theoretical and empirical investigation of the connection between status motivations and political behavior.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Every Saturday, Vol. 2: A Journal of Choice Reading, Selected From Foreign Current Literature; July to December, 1866 Apart from the pleasant narrative of the cruise of the Rob Boy, the impression which the author leaves with us of himself is exceedingly agreeable; he seems such an honest, hearty fellow, so thorough ly genuine; and although quite able to wield the ra pier of sarcasm, so careful and good-huniorcd in its use. Among his fellow-countrymen abroad, he meets with certain fine gentlemen, who remonstrate with him upon his lowly mode of travel. One said, for example, Don't you think it would have been more commodious to have had an attendant with you, to look after your luggage and things The most obvious answer to this was probably that which Igave: 'not for me, if he was to be in the boat; and not for him, if he had to run on the bank.' And, again. Another Englishman asked in all seri ousness about the canoe-voyage: 'was it not a great waste of time And when I in uired how he had spent his vacation, he said, O, was all the time at Brighton One English gentleman who smiled at the extremely odd notion of this canoe expedition, was found to have himself wandered over the continent upon a velocipede a second was trav elling with a four-ia-hand and two spare horses; and a third was making a tour in a road-locomotive, which had cost him seven hundred pounds.
