Essays on Political Economy
Essays on Political Economy, written by Frédéric Bastiat in the mid-19th century, critiques government intervention in the economy. Bastiat argues that the primary role of government is to protect individual rights to life, liberty, and property. He contends that laws promoting socialist policies undermine these rights, effectively perverting the law's purpose. This work is notable for its early defense of classical liberalism and its influence on economic thought.
