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.

On Some Of The Precautions Requisite In The Use Of Statistics In Economic Reasonings. 1. Conditions of the reliability of statistical data.-- If arguments based on statistics are to be of any value, particular attention must be paid to the following points: (a) the sources from which the statistics are obtained, with special reference to their reliability; (6) their true meaning and significance; (c) their completeness or incompleteness as covering the whole range of the phenomena to which they relate; (d) the manner of their grouping, with special reference to the taking of averages. Each of these points may be briefly considered in turn1. The initial difficulty in the use of statistics is the possible inaccuracy of the original data. Statistics may be obtained and published officially, or they may be collected through private channels. Under the former of these conditions, the accuracy of the figures is sometimes practically unquestionable; as, for example, in the case of railway 1 In what follows I am specially indebted to Dr Giffen's Essays in Finance, First and Second Series; to papers on Statistics by Professor R. M. Smith in the Political Science Quarterly, the Quarterly Journal of Economics, and the Publications of the American Economic Association; and to various papers in the Journal of the Statistical Society. traffic receipts. But this is by no means the universal rule, even when official statistics are forthcoming. Thus up to 1854 the values of imports into this country were calculated at the prices of the early part of the eighteenth century. From 1854 to 1870 they were officially computed according to the best information obtainable. At the present time the values of both imports and exports are...

Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Political Economy Secondly, The confounding the science Of Political Economy with the Sciences and Arts, to which it is subservient, has seduced Econo mists sometimes to undertake inquiries too vague to lead to any practical results, and sometimes to pursue the legitimate objects of the science by means unfit for their attainment. To their extended view of the objects Of Political Economy is to be attributed the undue importance which many Economists have ascribed to the col lection of facts, and their neglect of the far more important process Of reasoning accurately from the facts before them. We are con stantly told that it is a science of facts and experiment, a science acide ale fails. The practical applications of it, like the practical applications of every other science, without doubt, require the col lection and examination Of facts to an almost indefinite extent. The facts collected as materials for the amendment of the poor-laws, and the opening of the trade to China, fill more than twice as many volumes as could be occupied by all the treatises that have ever been written on Political Economy 5 but the facts on which the general principles Of the science rest may be stated in a very few sentences, and indeed in a very few words. But that the reasoning from these facts, the drawing from them correct conclusions, is a matter of great difficulty, may be inferred from the imperfect state in which the science is now found after it has been so long and so intensely studied.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Political Economy It sums up within itself the whole science of Political Economy. To settle it on truly scientific principles, to arrive at the true method of controlling it, demands the investigation and settlement of the mean ing of every single term in the science. Hume says, that the whole end of civil government is for the adminis tration of justice between man and man, so we may say, that the whole end of Political Economy is to regulate the currency.

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Political Economy, And, Sociology Political Economy or Economics may be briefly described as the science of wealth, or as to the science of utilities. By the term 'utilities' is meant what ever will tend to furnish mankind with the necessi ties for his existence, or which promote his comfort or happiness. This last statement Should be under stood as meaning whatever a person believes is for his comfort or happiness. The wisdom of the desire Of mankind, or any portion thereof, for any article is one which does not properly fall within the Sphere of Political Economy. The true Scope of this sub jcet is a material one and a better understanding of its problems can be secured if this fact is recognized at the outset and no attempt made by the writers thereon to encroach upon the field of sociology, ethics, psychology or law.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Working Principles of Political Economy in a New and Practical Form: A Book The aim of this book is to give, in small compass, a sufficient view of economic doctrine for the ordinary needs of intelligent citizens. I have had two principal motives in writing it. In the first place, I wished to show that the principles of Political Economy may be developed in such a form as to bring out, more clearly than is done in the standard books, their close and vital connection with every - day industry. In the second place, I wished to suggest some modifications, chiefly in points of detail, of the conclusions commonly accepted hitherto by the leading economists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Political Economy IN the following pages the writer has made the attempt to construct a skeleton of Political Economy upon the basis of purely physical laws, and thus to obtain for its conclusions that absolute certainty which belongs to the positive sciences. The casual association of its teaching with moral philosophy, is the circumstance to which is to be attributed that metaphysical bias, manifested by almost all Eco nomical writers, in their method of investigation, and which has con ducted them to such vague, hypothetical, and unsatisfactory results. It has, indeed, been made matter of set purpose to confine its exami nation of the laws of the production of the objects which constitute wealth, to such of them as are laws of the human mind, as may be seen by consulting the Essay of Mr. J. S. Mill On the Defini tion of Political Economy, and the method of Investigation proper to it. The issue, nevertheless, has been, that grossly material estimation of man, which disregards all that is truly human in his nature, and has brought upon Political Economy, thus worked out, the name of the Dismal Science.
