Economics And Politics

""Economics and Politics"" is a collection of essays written by Rowland Gibson Hazard on various public questions between the years 1840 and 1885. Hazard was a prominent businessman and politician in Rhode Island, and his writings reflect his views on the intersection of economics and politics during a period of significant change in American society. The essays cover a range of topics, including banking, tariffs, labor, and the role of government in the economy. Hazard argues for a laissez-faire approach to economics, advocating for limited government intervention in business affairs. At the same time, he recognizes the need for government regulation to protect workers and consumers. The book provides a valuable historical perspective on economic and political thought in the United States during the latter half of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
