Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foundations of Political Economy "England is full of wealth, of multifarious produce, supply for human want in every kind - yet England is dying of inanition. With unabated bounty the land of England blooms and grows; waving with yellow harvests; thick-studded with workshops, industrial implements, with fifteen millions of workers, understood to be the strongest, the cunningest, and the willingest our earth ever had; these men are here, the work they have done, the fruit they have realised is here, abundant, exuberant on every hand of us; and behold some baleful fiat as of Enchantment has gone forth, saying, 'Touch it not, ye master-workers, ye master-idlers;none of you can touch it, no man of you shall be the better for it; this is enchanted fruit.'" - Thomas Carlyle (Past and Present).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Political Economy Political eoonomy is, and has been for some years, in a transitional state, which is proof of its vitality. On the one side it is becoming more abstract, and on the other side it is becoming more realistic. The two movements are not in the least Opposed, unless in the sense that they act and react on each other incessantly to the great advance ment of the study. Much modern Economic science is being increasingly assimilated in form and method to the Natural sciences. In chemical and physical labora tories which can pretend to any distinction realistic researching never stops; but speculation as regards the fundamentals of chemistry and physics continue and must continue. In the great laboratory of the world a multitude of realistic researches remain to be made by economists, and it is only as they are made that the science Of economics will develop satisfactorily; but to attack the ultra-abstract and mathematical economists on that account, in the supposed interests of realism, is suicidal. Of this book Speculative results of a very general kind are the substance. I have to thank Mr. A. Fingland Jack, Lecturer on Economics and Commerce in the University of Manchester for his kind assistance with the proofs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundations of Economics In the year 1885, under the influence of Carlyle and llushin, I set myself to investigate the Condi tion-of-england-question, and with what I now see to have been singular good fortune I began on the problem of over-production. Is over-production the cause of Hard Times? I have come to a solution of that. Which satisfies myself. And while doing so I have had to recast most of the economic formulae. Some of them I have attached as untrue. Others I have replaced by new definitions, which seem to me to go a little deeper into the truth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Lectures on Political Economy, Delivered at Clinton Hall, Before the Mercantile Library Association of the City of New York, on the 23d and 30th of December, 1831 But to talk of a theory, as opposed to practice, is a gross perversion of language, and a contradiction in terms. A theory or science is only a history of practice; it is a collection of experiments arranged in order and accompanied by an analysis to unveil their causes and effects, and unless it accords with the results of observation, and bears the test of experience, it is altogether worthless, while, on the other hand, "without principles deduced from analytical reasoning, experience is a useless and a blind guide." There is no proposition however absurd, which statistical data may not be brought to sustain; but it is the part of science to distinguish between unconnected events, and those which succeed one another as cause and effect. We have, indeed, an ample illustration of the consequence of deducing inferences from isolated facts in the appeals made to political arithmetic by both the friends and opponents of the protecting system. On the one side, the falling off in the price of most manufactured commodities, which is common to us and to Europe, and is to be ascribed to the change in the currency, increased facilities of obtaining the raw material, improvements in machinery, the altered situation of the world, and other causes, is claimed as a proof of the beneficial effects of high tariffs; on the other, the depressed condition of the old southern states, - the necessary result of bringing the virgin soil of Illinois and Alabama into competition with the worn out lands of Virginia and Carolina, is wholly imputed to the same Congressional enactments. We do not mean to contend that those who profess to act according to the doctrines of Political Economy, never commit mistakes. It very often happens, that an incorrect application is made of a principle in itself perfectly unexceptionable. A student in Natural Philosophy, regarding solely the vis inertiae of matter, and not attending to friction and other countervailing causes, might be astonished to find that a body, once put in motion, did not continue to move on for ever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Common Sense of Political Economy: Including a Study of the Human Basis of Economic Law This book is intended primarily as a popular but systematic exposition of the "marginal" theory of Economics. The Introduction will make it clear that the author makes no claim to originality or priority with respect to anything that it contains. It is not a history; and the question it is concerned with is not who first made any given application of the "marginal" theory to Economics, but what are the main applications of that theory inevitably demanded by the facts. The general absence of references or acknowledgments, therefore, must not in any case be regarded as an implied claim on the author's part to a special property in the argument or illustration in question. But whereas this general explanation will, I hope, clear me from the charge of ingratitude, or worse, with reference to the great masters and the published works on Economics, it cannot absolve me from the duty of registering some few of the personal obligations under which I have from time to time been laid during the many years over which the direct and indirect preparations for this work have extended. To Mr. Graham Wallas, to Mr. H. H. Cunynghame, and to several members of my own family, I owe criticisms or suggestions which they may well have forgotten, but which have been of decisive importance to the development of my own thought.

Whether this effort to reach the minds of pupils of fifteen, sixteen or seventeen years has been successful, will only be learned on actual trial. In preparing a text-book for students in the period of life indicated, I have not thought it necessary to make the work childish. It is no Primer of Political Economy which is here offered but a substantial course of study in this vitally important subject.
