Laissez-Faire And Communism - John Maynard Keynes - Bog

Laissez-Faire And Communism is a collection of essays written by the renowned economist John Maynard Keynes. The book delves into the two opposing economic systems of laissez-faire capitalism and communism, examining their strengths and weaknesses. Keynes argues that laissez-faire capitalism, which advocates for minimal government intervention in the economy, is flawed and ultimately leads to economic instability and inequality. On the other hand, he critiques communism for its lack of individual freedom and incentives for innovation. The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on laissez-faire capitalism and its implications for society. Keynes argues that the unregulated pursuit of profit by businesses can lead to economic booms and busts, as well as social inequality. He also discusses the role of government in regulating the economy and protecting workers' rights.The second part of the book examines communism and its potential as an alternative economic system. Keynes acknowledges the appeal of communism's promise of equality and social justice, but ultimately concludes that it is unsustainable due to its lack of incentives for innovation and individual initiative. Overall, Laissez-Faire And Communism is a thought-provoking analysis of two competing economic systems and their impact on society. Keynes' insights remain relevant today, as debates about the role of government in the economy continue to shape public discourse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
