Synopsis

The Ethic of Usury and Interest: A Study in Inorganic Socialism is a book written by William Blissard in 1892. The book explores the concept of usury and interest from a socialist perspective. The author argues that the practice of charging interest on loans is unethical and exploitative, and that it leads to the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few. Blissard examines the history of usury and interest, tracing their origins back to ancient times. He argues that the rise of capitalism has led to the widespread acceptance of interest as a necessary component of the economy, but that this acceptance is misguided. He proposes an alternative economic system based on the principles of socialism, which would eliminate the need for interest and usury altogether.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the issue. The author examines the arguments for and against usury and interest, and provides a detailed analysis of their impact on society. He also discusses the role of government in regulating these practices, and proposes a number of reforms that could be implemented to create a more equitable economic system.Overall, The Ethic of Usury and Interest is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges conventional wisdom about the role of interest in the economy. It is an important contribution to the ongoing debate about the ethics of capitalism and the role of government in regulating economic activity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
