Cursory Views Of The Liberal And Restrictive Systems Of Political Economy (1826) - Mathew Carey - Bog

Cursory Views of the Liberal and Restrictive Systems of Political Economy is a book written by Mathew Carey and first published in 1826. The book provides an overview of the two main economic systems of the time: the liberal and the restrictive systems. Carey argues that the liberal system, which supports free trade and minimal government intervention in the economy, is the best approach to economic growth and prosperity.Carey's book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of the liberal system, including its history and principles. Carey argues that the liberal system is based on the principles of competition, free trade, and individual liberty. He also discusses the benefits of this system, including increased productivity, lower prices, and greater economic growth.The second part of the book focuses on the restrictive system, which Carey argues is based on protectionism and government intervention in the economy. He discusses the negative effects of this system, including higher prices, reduced competition, and slower economic growth. Carey also provides examples of countries that have adopted the restrictive system and suffered as a result.Overall, Cursory Views of the Liberal and Restrictive Systems of Political Economy is an important work in the history of economic thought. Carey's arguments in favor of the liberal system were influential in shaping economic policy in the United States during the 19th century. The book remains relevant today as debates over free trade and government intervention in the economy continue.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
