The Cost Of War, And Ways Of Reducing It Suggested By Economic Theory - Francis Ysidro Edgeworth - Bog

The Cost Of War, And Ways Of Reducing It Suggested By Economic Theory: A Lecture (1915) is a book written by Francis Ysidro Edgeworth that discusses the economic impact of war and suggests ways to reduce its cost. The book was written during the First World War and provides insight into the economic theories of the time. Edgeworth explores the financial and social consequences of war, including the loss of life and property, the disruption of trade and commerce, and the strain on government finances. He also examines the potential benefits of war, such as technological advancements and increased employment. However, he ultimately argues that the cost of war far outweighs any potential benefits. Edgeworth then suggests ways to reduce the cost of war, including the use of arbitration and diplomacy to resolve conflicts, the establishment of international trade agreements to promote peace, and the implementation of policies to prevent the spread of militarism. The book provides a valuable historical perspective on the economic impact of war and offers insights into how economic theory can be used to promote peace and reduce conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
