Description:

Frédéric Bastiat was a keen observer and analyst of political and economic problems, and a passionate proponent of liberal economic theory. This book collects nineteen of Bastiat's "pamphlets," or articles, ranging from the theory of value and rent, public choice and collective action, government intervention and regulation, the balance of trade, education, and trade unions to price controls, capital and growth, and taxation. Many of these are topics still relevant and debated today.
