Download or read book On Classical Economics written by Thomas Sowell and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reexamination of classical economic theory and methods, by a senior economist of international stature Thomas Sowell's many writings on the history of economic thought have appeared in a number of scholarly journals and books, and these writings have been praised, reprinted, and translated in various countries around the world. The classical era in the history of economics is an important part of the history of ideas in general, and its implications reach beyond the bounds of the economics profession. On Classical Economics is a book from which students can learn both history and economics. It is not simply a Cook's tour of colorful personalities of the past but a study of how certain economic concepts and tools of analysis arose, and how their implications were revealed during the controversies that followed. In addition to a general understanding of classical macroeconomics and microeconomics, this book offers special insight into the neglected pioneering work of Sismondi--and why it was neglected--and a detailed look at John Stuart Mill's enigmatic role in the development of economics and the mysteries of Marxian economics. Clear, engaging, and very readable, without being either cute or condescending, On Classical Economics can enable a course on the history of economic thought to make a contribution to students' understanding of economics in general--whether in price theory, monetary theory, or international trade. In short, it is a book about analysis as well as history.

Download or read book New Principles of Political Economy written by Peter Grootings and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-04-14 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Sismondi was admired for his analytic originality and imagination by Marx, Mill, and Schumpeter, until now there has been no full translation of his major work into English. Richard Hyse's excellent translation permits us to absorb the full flavor and quality of his thought. And as Robert Heilbroner notes in his foreword: "Perhaps even more useful is the commentary that precedes and accompanies the text . . . Hyse takes the reader on a conducted tour as he points out Sismondi's differences from, and criticisms of, Smith and Ricardo and Say, on the one hand, and Marx on the other."In many respects, Sismondi's thought was ahead of its time. A half-century before Walras, he spoke of aggregate "equilibrium." Fifty years before Marx, he devised an algebraic model of economic growth. Ten years before Mill he published an analytical criticism of Say's Law, and one of the earliest uses of marginal utility analysis to explain value. Schumpeter credited him as the father of dynamic analysis in the modern sense. He is also recognized by all as the pioneer of business cycle analysis.Richard Hyse's introduction adds valuable biographical information about Sismondi, and positions his work among eighteenth-century social and economic thinkers. As he notes, Sismondi's life spanned one of the most revolutionary periods in European history; and although Marxist theory clearly owes a debt to Sismondi, his preference was evolution, not revolution. The translation will illuminate the genesis of Marxist ideology and some of the basic causes of its failure. Publication of this translation will be welcomed by economists, social scientists interested in the history of ideas, and those who, in Hyse's words, wish to "follow the mind of a vigorous pamphleteer dealing with the turbulent world of the French Revolution and its lasting aftermath."

Download or read book After Adam Smith written by Murray Milgate and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-09-26 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How writers after Adam Smith helped shape our thinking about economics and politics Few issues are more central to our present predicaments than the relationship between economics and politics. In the century after Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations the British economy was transformed. After Adam Smith looks at how politics and political economy were articulated and altered. It considers how grand ideas about the connections between individual liberty, free markets, and social and economic justice sometimes attributed to Smith are as much the product of gradual modifications and changes wrought by later writers. Thomas Robert Malthus, David Ricardo, James Mill, John Stuart Mill, and other liberals, radicals, and reformers had a hand in conceptual transformations that culminated in the advent of neoclassical economics. The population problem, the declining importance of agriculture, the consequences of industrialization, the structural characteristics of civil society, the role of the state in economic affairs, and the possible limits to progress were questions that underwent significant readjustments as the thinkers who confronted them in different times and circumstances reworked the framework of ideas advanced by Smith—transforming the dialogue between politics and political economy. By the end of the nineteenth century an industrialized and globalized market economy had firmly established itself. By exploring how questions Smith had originally grappled with were recast as the economy and the principles of political economy altered during the nineteenth century, this book demonstrates that we are as much the heirs of later images of Smith as we are of Smith himself. Many writers helped shape different ways of thinking about economics and politics after Adam Smith. By ignoring their interventions we risk misreading our past—and also misusing it—when thinking about the choices at the interface of economics and politics that confront us today.

Download or read book Marx s Associated Mode of Production written by Paresh Chattopadhyay and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-30 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to restore Marx’s original emancipatory idea of socialism, conceived as an association of free individuals centered on working people’s self- emancipation after the demise of capitalism. Marxist scholar Paresh Chattopadhyay argues that, Marx’s (and Engels’s) ideas have been deliberately warped with misinterpretation not only by those who resent these ideas but more consequentially by those who have come to power under the banner of Marx, calling themselves communists. This book challenges those who have inaccurately revised Marx’s ideas justify their own pursuit of political power.

Download or read book Experiencing Nature written by P. Theerman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-04-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, honoring the renowned historian of science, Allen G Debus, explores ideas of science - `experiences of nature' - from within a historiographical tradition that Debus has done much to define. As his work shows, the sciences do not develop exclusively as a result of a progressive and inexorable logic of discovery. A wide variety of extra-scientific factors, deriving from changing intellectual contexts and differing social millieus, play crucial roles in the overall development of scientific thought. These essays represent case studies in a broad range of scientific settings - from sixteenth-century astronomy and medicine, through nineteenth-century biology and mathematics, to the social sciences in the twentieth-century - that show the impact of both social settings and the cross-fertilization of ideas on the formation of science. Aimed at a general audience interested in the history of science, this book closes with Debus's personal perspective on the development of the field. Audience: This book will appeal especially to historians of science, of chemistry, and of medicine.
