Book excerpt: Henry George on free trade! The dismal science is being reclaimed, its swamp lands drained, its jungles cleared, sunshine and free air let in; and the cheap publishers are establishing a prosperous settlement on the bogs where the owl but lately was wont to hoot its wisdom to unlistening ears. The singular success of Mr. George is that he has made Political Economy interesting. A vast deal of heresy might well be pardoned to the author who has set the average man thinking over the urgent problems which were recently supposed to constitute the dreariest of the sciences. No writer on Political Economy has approached him in the power of clothing its dry bones with life. Those who deny him the title of a social architect cannot refuse him the claim of being an economic artist. This book has much of the charm which characterized his first great work. 'Protection or Free Trade' takes a grip of the reader such as 'Progress and Poverty' laid upon hosts of men in all walks of life. Those of us who knew that Mr. George has been for a year or more engaged on a book upon this well-handled theme have awaited its appearance with curious wonder, to see whether this threshed-out subject could take on new life at his touch. The miracle is wrought. He has written a book which, whether it convince the reader or not, cannot fail to interest him, and allure him on through its pages with a zest that never flags from title-page to finis. He is really a master of words. This, however, is because he is a master of ideas. He has his subject well in hand when he begins to write. He thinks clearly, and thus speaks clearly. He knows what he means, sees his thought vividly in the sunshine, and thus puts it upon paper so that he who runs may read. He goes straight for the point which he has in view, and strides along in a good, honest Saxon gait which leaves it easy for the plainest man of the people to keep in his footsteps.

Book excerpt: Henry George's treatise, which discusses the benefits and drawbacks of both protectionist tariffs and unfettered free trade, is published here complete. When George wrote this book, the economy of the world was seeing unprecedented levels of international trade. Shipping technology facilitated the movement of goods between borders relatively quickly, and the consequent supply was viewed as disruptive to both existing business and labor. This book sees Henry George outline arguments and reasoning in favor of tariffs, which are taxes imposed on imports, exports or both. At the same time, George examines views which support zero taxes on goods travelling between borders and even production itself - in short, unfettered free trade. After weighing up the effects of protection and free trade upon wages and the wider economy, George favors the option of free trade. Henry George had a unique view on how the economies of the world should be organized, and situated his attitudes to the protectionism versus free trade debate accordingly. He believed that the ever-increasing value of land, and the corresponding rents demanded by landowners, caused the depression of wages, production and prosperity. For George, the protection versus free trade debate was thus something of a red herring: the true cause of wages being so low was the ever-increasing cost and rents of land. Rather than impose taxes on goods or the making of goods, George proposed to tax land itself and to treat it as more as a common property, rather than cede it to mass landowners who would in turn charge high prices for its use.

Book excerpt: Henry George's classic, PROTECTION OR FREE TRADE, is read as avidly today as when first written. It is more than a model of the polemicist's art. It is one of the chief sources of the progressive tradition in American economic & social policy & of the ethical democratic faith in world politics. George presented his basic ideas in his masterpiece, PROGRESS & POVERTY. Then, in SOCIAL PROBLEMS, he elaborated the practical, public side of his philosophy. In PROTECTION OR FREE TRADE, he works out the details of the reform of the monopoly-ridden, privilege-racked & status-cursed system of private & public enterprise we now cope with, into a free enterprise system which rewards each according to his or her contribution & gives nothing to the parasitical monopolist. Henry George (1839-1897), one of America's most original economists & one of history's greatest social philosophers, wrote PROTECTION OR FREE TRADE, & other classic works.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Protection or Free Trade: An Examination of the Tariff Question, With Especial Regard to the Interest of Labor In this book I have endeavored to determine whether protection or free trade better accords with the interests of labor, and to bring to a common conclusion on this subject those who really desire to raise wages. I have not only gone over the ground generally traversed, and examined the arguments commonly used, but, carrying the inquiry further than the controversialists on either side have yet ventured to go, I have sought to discover why protection retains such popular strength in spite of all exposures of its fallacies; to trace the connection between the tariff question and those still more important social questions, now rapidly becoming the "burning questions" of our times; and to show to what radical measures the principle of free trade logically leads. While pointing out the falsity of the belief that tariffs can protect labor, I have not failed to recognize the facts which give this belief vitality, and, by an examination of these facts, have shown, not only how little the working-classes can hope from that mere "revenue reform" which is miscalled "free trade," but how much they have to hope from real free trade.

In this provocative study, Ha-Joon Chang examines the great pressure on developing countries from the developed world to adopt certain 'good policies' and 'good institutions', seen today as necessary for economic development. His conclusions are compelling and disturbing: that developed countries are attempting to 'kick away the ladder' with which they have climbed to the top, thereby preventing developing countries from adopting policies and institutions that they themselves have used.
