Publisher's Synopsis
""The Harmony of Interests: Agricultural, Manufacturing, and Commercial"" is a book written by Henry Charles Carey in 1851. The book argues that the interests of agriculture, manufacturing, and commerce are interconnected and interdependent, and that the success of one sector is dependent on the success of the others. Carey believed that a healthy economy required a balance between these three sectors, and that government policies should be designed to promote this balance. He also argued that protectionist policies, which were becoming increasingly popular at the time, were harmful to the economy and that free trade was the best way to promote economic growth. The book was influential in shaping economic policy in the United States during the mid-19th century and is considered a classic of American economic literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
