Lectures on Political Economy (Classic Reprint): Delivered in Trinity and Michaelmas Terms - Couverture souple
Synopsis
A rigorous exploration of how rent, wages, and prices shape an economy. This edition presents clear arguments about the cost of production, how agricultural improvements influence rent, and how market prices are stabilized by supply and cultivation choices.
The text summarizes debates among classic economists and examines how shifting wages and profits interact with population and living costs. It references thinkers from Ricardo to Adam Smith, offering a careful, step‑by‑step look at how theory translates into observed prices and rents. Readers will encounter a thoughtful treatment of agricultural economics and its broader implications for the economy.
- Understand the core ideas about rent, fertility, and the cost of production.
- See how improvements in agriculture might lower rents in the short term but affect population dynamics over time.
- Explore how wages relate to living expenses and to broader economic shifts.
- Gain context from historical debates among early economists and how their ideas evolved.
Ideal for readers of economic history, students of classical political economy, and anyone seeking a grounded, nontechnical overview of these foundational concepts.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an introduction to political economy, the science which studies how wealth is created, distributed, and consumed in different countries. It was written in 1832 by the author, who was the first professor of political economy at the University of Dublin. The book is divided into ten lectures which cover a wide range of topics, including the nature of wealth, the role of labour in creating value, the laws of supply and demand, and the effects of government intervention in the economy. The author argues that political economy is a science of recent origin, but that it is of great importance in the present day, as it can help us to understand the causes of poverty and inequality, and to develop policies to address these problems. This book is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to learn more about political economy and its relevance to the modern world.
