Condillac: Commerce and Government: Considered in their Mutual Relationship

by Shelagh M. Eltis (Editor)

Condillac's theory of economics was initially condemned by the physiocrats because in his utility-based analysis, industry and commerce and not just agriculture contributed to the wealth of France. This first English translation includes a comprehensive account of Condillac's life and contributions, the importance of which were widely recognized after the marginal revolution of the 1870's.
