Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book gives insight into the 1888-1889 sessions of the Manchester Statistical Society. Inaugurating the proceedings, the president presents an overview of prevailing economic phenomena of the time. The author then postulates theories to account for the stark contrast between the increasing productive capacity and appalling levels of poverty. He attributes the economic disparity to âimprovidenceâ and âimprudenceâ and suggests solutions including emigration to undeveloped British territories with abundant natural resources. Moreover, the author proposes that the government, not private industry, should finance this emigration. Exploring topics like economic protectionism, the establishment of a permanent census department, and the formation of trade cartels, the author underscores the complex relationship between economic theory and practical application.
