National System Of Political Economy

The National System of Political Economy is a book written by Friedrich List, a German economist and philosopher, in 1841. The book presents List's ideas on the importance of national economic development and the role of the state in promoting it. List argues that nations should prioritize their own economic interests over those of other countries, and that protectionist policies such as tariffs and subsidies are necessary to foster the growth of domestic industries.List also emphasizes the importance of infrastructure development, education, and technological innovation in promoting economic growth. He argues that these factors are essential for nations to compete in the global economy and achieve prosperity for their citizens.The National System of Political Economy was a groundbreaking work in its time, challenging the prevailing free trade ideology and advocating for a more interventionist approach to economic policy. List's ideas had a significant impact on the economic policies of Germany and other countries in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and continue to be influential today in debates over globalization and economic development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
