Synopsis

The Coming Individualism offers a bold look at how money, politics, and work shape the economy and our daily lives. It argues that a decisive shift in thinking is needed as the old system meets new pressures.

This edition surveys the labour question and how currency, banking, and government policy interact. It contrasts deposit banks with distributing banks and explains how bank rules shape credit available to workers and business. It also warns that careless taxation and ambitious public projects can disrupt trade, dampen investment, and threaten liberty.

• A clear explanation of how the Bank Act influences note-issuing, currency stability, and the flow of capital.


• The difference between deposit banks and distributing banks, and how each affects credit for production and consumption.


• Practical concerns about municipal governance, budgeting, and the pace of public improvements.


• A call to balance liberty with responsibility, ensuring capital remains available for growth without overreach.

Ideal for readers interested in historical economic debates, banking, and the guardrails of public policy.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

President of the Agricultural Banks Association. My dear Yerburgh, In inscribing this our hook to you, my colleague and I give expression to a feeling which has sustained us from the moment we began our work. As with orators, so with authors. The conviction of having an audience sympathetic enough to appreciate at least their motives, encourages and emboldens. Attacking, as we have done, some of the most powerful and misery-dealing prejudices, and unable to count upon that friendly reception and unbiassed criticism afforded to those who swim with the current, it has been to us a source of strength to know that you at least will give a hearing to pleadings which are based on patriotism and justice to suffering humanity. It is true that the cause of Individualism can at this moment count upon a far larger circle of sympathisers than was the case several years ago, when we began to call public attention to the first practical steps towards its triumph, but we naturally look upon you as their true exponent. Your exertions on behalf of our financially oppressed agricultural classes, and the unfortunate victims of our abominable usury system, we have considered to be a guarantee that you will favourably weigh arguments which the prejudices of most men would cause them to neglect. We willingly confess that in this Dedication we have been actuated by the hope that your name on the first page would attract the attention of the members of that assembly which, of all bodies of men in the world, exercises the greatest influence over the Empire, and over the human race the Imperial Parliament.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
