184611941Paris: Guillaumin et Cie. 1846. 233x145mm. 9¼x5¾". Paris Guillaumin & Cie. 1846. En 4º 233 x 145mm. xxxvi-550 pp. Encuadernación de la época en holandesa piel. Segunda edición francesa de esta importante obra de economÃa polÃtica publicada por vez primera en inglés en 1820. Aunque Malthus es más conocido por los puntos de vista sobre la población contenidos en su<em> Ensayo sobre población</em> no cabe duda de que su importancia para los economistas de hoy se basa principalmente en sus <em>Principios de economÃa polÃtica</em>. Fue debido a este trabajo que J.M. Keynes reinstaló a Malthus como una figura importante en el pensamiento económico moderno en un momento en que la redundancia autoinducida del <em>Ensayo sobre la población</em> estaba a punto de reducir a Malthus a la categorÃa de monumento histórico. Los <em>Principios de EconomÃa PolÃtica</em> de Malthus fueron influenciados por los <em>Principios de EconomÃa PolÃtica y Tributación</em> de David Ricardo. Muy buen ejemplar.

1820143844London: John Murray 1820. Rare first edition of Malthus' classic work. Octavo bound in full diced morocco raised bands gilt titles and tooling to the spine front and rear panels marbled endpapers. In near fine condition. An exceptional presentation. Thomas Malthus was an English economist known for his work in the fields of political economics and demography. His theory that prosperity and production lead not to utopia but to population growth and thereby back to social imbalance known as the "Malthusian trap" was expounded in his Essay on the Principle of Population 1789 one of his most notable and debated works. His Principles of Political Economy was written as a polemic against David Ricardo's On the Principles of Political Economy and Taxation and Say's Law arguing that demand did not grow simultaneously with supply but that they should be analyzed independent of each other expounding ideas which became influential on Keynsian economics. Both these works were divisive incurring backlash and support amongst notable economists. The bleak message of his Principle of Population rendered Malthus a notorious figure: Ebenezer Scrooge from A Christmas Carol for example justifies his refusal to give charity as a Malthusian attempt to control the population.

In very good condition. Ownership inscription from the African Society and stamp to the title page. Rare in the original boards. There can be no doubt that Malthus’ importance for economists today rests mainly on his Principles of Political Economy. It was because of this latter work that J. M. Keynes 1933 reinstated Malthus as a major figure in modern economic thought" New Palgrave.

1820158341London: 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 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.
