Publisher's Synopsis
Essays Designed To Elucidate The Science Of Political Economy: While Serving To Explain And Defend The Policy Of Protection To Home Industry is a collection of essays written by Horace Greeley, an American newspaper editor and politician, in the mid-19th century. The book aims to explain and defend the policy of protectionism, which promotes the use of tariffs and other measures to protect domestic industries from foreign competition. Greeley argues that protectionism is necessary to promote the growth of domestic industry and to prevent the outsourcing of jobs to other countries. He also discusses the principles of political economy, including supply and demand, international trade, and the role of government in regulating the economy. The essays in this book were originally published in Greeley's newspaper, the New York Tribune, and were later compiled and published as a book. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of economic thought and the development of protectionist policies in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
