Definitions in Political Economy

About this book

This work presents Malthus' further thoughts on the question of value, its definition and its measurement, written largely in response to Samuel Bailey's Critical Dissertation on that subject. "Remains significant as an early contribution to the methodology of economics ... repays consideration in times of terminological confusion." The New Palgrave . "The standard work of the genus ... it contains one of the best criticims of Ricardo's theoretical set-up ever written." J.A. Schumpeter History of Economic Analysis
