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.

182046619London: John Murray 1820. First edition 8vo vi 601 1 pp. Contemporary black half calf a little rubbed covers very slightly damp stained and bowed gilt spine and red label. "The Principles had only a limited impact at the time. more recently it has received greater recognition largely as a result of the comments by J. M. Keynes in the 1930s. 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 instead of being constrained by Ricardo in an artificial groove the world would be a much wiser and richer place." ODNB. Goldsmiths 22767.

1820884511London: 1820. Some light foxing to the title page otherwise a superior copy in the original papercovered boards with paper spine label. Malthus' Principles of Political Economy did not have its full impact on economic theory until it was revived by J.M. Keynes and P. Sraffa in the twentieth century. Math and technology aside Malthus argues not that society tends toward cannibalistic starvation but that either society will "preventatively" control its population or nature will "correctively" reduce population"Several philosophers and speculatists had supposed that a certain state of society very different from any that has hitherto existed was in itself practicable; and that if it were realised it would be productive of a far greater degree of human happiness than is compatible with the present institutions of society."21 Malthus' argument as stated by Hazlitt is that if man were to give up his existing social institutions then there would be as much bad as good come of it. "For says Mr Malthus though this improved state of society were actually realized it could not possibly continue but must soon terminate in a state of things pregnant with evils for more insupportable than any we at present endure.".

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.
