Internally very good. <br> The first English edition was printed by John Murray in 1820, this is the 1st American edition printed in 1821 in Boston.J.M. Keynes "argued that Malthus's theory of effective demand provided a scientific explanation of unemployment, and that the hundred-year domination of Ricardo over Malthus had been a disaster for the progress of economics. Keynes believed that if economics had followed Malthus ... the world would be a much wiser and richer place" (ODNB). The last chapter of the book was devoted to rebutting Say's law, and argued that the economy could stagnate with a lack of "effectual demand". In other words, wages if less than the total costs of production cannot purchase the total… Leer más

London: William Pickering, 1836., 1836. 8vo. pp. liv, [1 leaf], 446. untrimmed & partly unopened in original cloth (spine dull & frayed at ends, label chipped). Second Enlarged Edition of Malthus's chief contribution to general economic theory, in which he explains in particular his differences with Ricardo. ".Ricardo's work.started with the Wealth of Nations and recoined the latter's theoretical contents by a method that centered in the concept of value. Exactly the same thing is evidently true of the work of Malthus.Except for his theory of saving and investment, which on the face of it seems to be Malthus's own, all the elements that enter into the analytic apparatus of that work, and even its terminological arrangements, point to the First Book of the Wealth of Nations. Only, whereas Richardo recoined the doctrine of the Wealth by means of the labor-quantity theory of value, Malthus recoined it by the means of the theory of value that A.Smith actually used, namely, the… Leer más

London: John Murray,, 1820. From the library of a neo-Malthusian First edition, with the stamp on the title page of Carel Victor Gerritsen (1850-1905), the radical Dutch politican who founded the Nieuw-Malthusiaansche Bond (Neo-Malthusian League) in 1881; like Malthus Gerritsen deemed unchecked population growth the root of society's ills and proposed - unlike Malthus - the use of contraception to restrain it. Principles of Political Economy was conceived as a series of tracts rather than a comprehensive and systematic treatise. Malthus published it to establish his own position against that of Ricardo, with whom he had been having an ongoing debate about the nature of labour, demand and profit. Unlike Ricardo, Malthus supported the active encouragement of demand, and in so doing was seen by John Maynard Keynes as a forerunner of his own thought. "Malthus was proposing investment in public work and private luxury as a means of increasing effective demand, and hence as a palliative to economic… Leer más

London: John Murray,, 1820. In the original boards First edition of the author's major late work, a re-examination of his economic work in the early 1800s, and a point-by-point response to David Ricardo's Principles of Political Economy (1817). Notably, Keynes held that "if economics had followed Malthus instead of being constrained by Ricardo in an artificial groove, the world would be a much wiser and richer place" (ODNB). In the Principles, Malthus summarizes his earlier writing on rents, currency, food prices, and corn laws. The book was conceived as a series of tracts rather than a comprehensive and systematic treatise, though Malthus published it to establish his own position against that of Ricardo, with whom he disagreed about the nature of labour, demand, and profit. "In his Principles of Political Economy, Malthus was proposing investment in public work and private luxury as a means of increasing effective demand, and hence as a palliative to economic distress. The nation, he thought, must… Leer más

London: John Murray,, 1820. Countering Ricardo, later praised by Keynes First edition, a scarce uncut copy. The Principles was Malthus's broadest treatment of issues in political economy, conceived as a series of tracts on economic questions, rather than a comprehensive and systematic treatise as with his Principle of Population. Malthus published it to establish his own position against that of Ricardo, with whom he had been having an ongoing debate about the nature of labour, demand, and profit. "In his 'Principles of Political Economy', Malthus was proposing investment in public work and private luxury as a means of increasing effective demand, and hence as a palliative to economic distress. The nation, he thought, must balance the power to produce and the will to consume" (DSB). "The Principles had only a limited impact at the time, and was severely criticized by J. R. McCulloch and Ricardo; the latter prepared extensive critical notes. But more recently it has received greater recognition,… Leer más
