HARDCOVER contemporary quarter cloth and marbled paper over boards paper label to spine; small chip to paper on upper board corner of first free endpaper finger-soiled stamp to title. In a very good condition fine interior. ~ FIRST EDITION. A very scarce original copy of Schulze-Delitzsch's attack on Lassalle's "Herr Bastiat-Schulze von Delitzsch der ökonomische Julian oder: Capital und Arbeit" 1864 see here. Franz Hermann Schulze-Delitzsch 1808-1883 was a German jurist member of the Prussian National Assembly Chamber of Deputies and the German Reichstag. He advocated free-trade unrestricted competition and self-help rather than state-help. In 1863 he wrote "Capitel zu einem deutschen Arbeiterkatechismus" borrowing his fundamental principles in the main from Bastiat. Ferdinand Lassalle 1825-1864 a German socialist was the architect of the German labour movement and founder the German Workers' Association. He was the first to speak about "the iron law of wages" defining it as the minimum subsistence pay permitting survival and the raising of children. But the more his revolutionary hopes were disappointed the more sharply he turned against the middle classes and Schulze's theories whose capacity to solve the social question he denied. "Herr Bastiat-Schulze" was his rather assailing reaction to Schulze's book. In 1866 only after Lassalle's death he was mortally wounded in a duel fought over a lady he intended to marry Schulze finally answered with his "Die Abschaffung". ~ Provenance: From the private library of Dr. Max Menger with his ink stamp and calligraphed name on spine label.

1990EC-76Boulder CO.: Westview Press 1990. In this scholarly work of intellectual history Max Alter places Menger in his proper intellectual setting - the romanticism/historicism of 19th-century German thought. Menger emerges as an economic theorist whose theoretical work is tied to 19th-century German political economy in a way that his later interpreters never realized. The resulting reassessment leaves Menger's status as a pioneer of neo-classical economies secure and it illuminates the important differences among Menger Walras and Jevons. But it challenges the accepted notion that Austrian economics developed relatively continuously from 1871 onward. By laying bare the foundations of Menger's thought. Alter makes clear just how far the Austrian school has departed from the inspiration of its founder. 256 pgs. Illustrated. Slight crease to upper corner of last few text pages.
