Principles of Political Economy with Some of Their Applications to Social Philosophy

Beschreibung

A single volume 'People's Edition' of John Stuart Mill's important discussion of Political Economy, a work credited with helping to establish him as a leading public intellectual. The 1868 'People's Edition' of Mill's work, complete in one volume, and printed in two columns.First published in 1848, this work is a foundational text within classical economics, discussing topics such as production, distribution, and the role of government in shaping economic outcomes.In his work, Mill distinguishes between natural laws governing production and the socially constructed rules of distribution, arguing that policies can be changed to promote fairness. He presents an argument for progressive taxation, workers' rights, and limited government intervention where markets fail.In 1856, this book was included in the Index Librorum Prohibitorum, thus being banned by the Catholic Church.With a blind stamp to the front free endpaper, and the inscription of Frank Magg, 1870, to the front pastedown. In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally excellent, with fading to dust wrapper back strip, and bump to back strip head. Front hinge lightly strained. Inscription to front pastedown. Front free endpaper and half title tenderly held. Blind stamp to front free endpaper. Internally, firmly bound. Pages exceptionally clean and bright. Very Good.
