1820rif. 151433London: John Murray 1820. First edition. The book was conceived as a series of tracts rather than a comprehensive and systematic treatise though Malthus published it to establish his own position against that of Ricardo with whom he had been having an ongoing debate about the nature of labour demand and profit. "In his 'Principles of Political Economy' Malthus was proposing investment in public work and private luxury as a means of increasing effective demand and hence as a palliative to economic distress. The nation he thought must balance the power to produce and the will to consume" DSB. "The Principles had only a limited impact at the time and was severely criticized by J. R. McCulloch and Ricardo; the latter prepared extensive critical notes. But more recently it has received greater recognition largely as a result of the comments by J. M. Keynes in the 1930s. Keynes argued that Malthus's theory of effective demand provided a scientific explanation of unemployment and that the hundred-year domination of Ricardo over Malthus had been a disaster for the progress of economics. Keynes believed that if economics had followed Malthus instead of being constrained by Ricardo in an artificial groove the world would be a much wiser and richer place" ODNB. Octavo.

Schumpeter describes Malthus' work in relation to that of his predecessors Adam Smith and Ricardo as follows: "Ricardo's work.started with the Wealth of Nations and recoined the latter's theoretical contents by a method that centered in the concept of value. Exactly the same thing is evidently true of the work of Malthus.except for his theory of saving and investment which on the face of it seems to be Malthus's own all the elements that enter into the analytic apparatus of that work and even its terminological arrangements point to the First book of the Wealth of Nations. Only whereas Ricardo recoined the doctrine of Wealth by means of the labor-quantity theory of value Malthus recoined it by the means of the theory of value that A. Smith actually used namely the theory of supply and demand.whereas Ricardo's analytic apparatus is geared to the problem of distribution.Malthus. geared his apparatus to the analysis of the whole economic process.Therefore Malthus should.stand in the history of analysis not only as the author of a valid alternative to Ricardo's theory but as the sponsor or rather as one of the sponsors of the victorious one." "Although Malthus is best known for the views on population contained in his Essay on Population.there can be no doubt that his importance for economists today rests mainly on his Principles of Political Economy 1820.

1820rif. 948P11London: John Murray 1820. First edition. Cloth. Very Good. 9" by 6". None. The first edition of this important economic work by the influential writer Thomas Robert Malthus. The first edition.'Principles of Political Economy' is now regarded as a very influential study on economics in which the author explains the historical economic depression in Europe and why they occur. The work rejects the idea of Say's law and Ricardo's 1817 Principles of Political Economy and Taxation generally. Malthus argued that any rise in wages above the subsistence level would encourage population growth which in turn would drive wages back down to subsistencea dynamic often referred to as the "Malthusian trap." By the economist scholar and cleric Thomas Robert Malthus. He published this work to rival David Ricardo's 1817 work 'Principles of Political Economy and Taxation'."The Principles had only a limited impact at the time and was severely criticized by J. R. McCulloch and Ricardo; the latter prepared extensive critical notes. But more recently it has received greater recognition largely as a result of the comments by J. M. Keynes in the 1930s. Keynes argued that Malthus's theory of effective demand provided a scientific explanation of unemployment and that the hundred-year domination of Ricardo over Malthus had been a disaster for the progress of economics. Keynes believed that if economics had followed Malthus instead of being constrained by Ricardo in an artificial groove the world would be a much wiser and richer place" DNBVery rarely seen eight pages of adverts to the rear dated April 1820.

Burgundy Moroccan leather spine label. Clean unmarked pages. Marginal browning to pages. Internally very good. The first English edition was printed by John Murray in 1820 this is the 1st American edition printed in 1821 in Boston.J.M. Keynes "argued that Malthus's theory of effective demand provided a scientific explanation of unemployment and that the hundred-year domination of Ricardo over Malthus had been a disaster for the progress of economics. Keynes believed that if economics had followed Malthus . the world would be a much wiser and richer place" ODNB. The last chapter of the book was devoted to rebutting Say's law and argued that the economy could stagnate with a lack of "effectual demand". In other words wages if less than the total costs of production cannot purchase the total output of industry causing prices to fall; price falls decrease incentives to invest creating a downward spiral.

1820rif. 1015London: John Murray 1820. First Edition. Recent full calf in a contemporary style. Very good with some minor spotting at points. 8vo vi 1 - 601 1 - blank pp. Malthus published this book at a time when Ricardo's ideas were established orthodoxy. The Principles is the first complete statement of his economic theories. In it the theory of rent is clearly stated and the three main points of debate with Ricardo addressed. The principle of the value theory based on labor costs demand affects value in a limited way finally that profits are determined by the cultivation and fertility of the least arable land were central to Ricardo. Malthus challenges each of these ideas and what he termed Ricardo's ' new school of political economy ' . This is Malthus' intellectual manifesto with important sections on the theory of rent employment wages and the question of value. A key book in the development of modern economic theory.
