Protection and Communism
1849
'Protection and Communism' is a political and economic treatise by Frédéric Bastiat, first published in 1849. The book critiques protectionism, arguing that it parallels communism in undermining property rights and individual liberty. Bastiat employs logical arguments and socio-economic examples to illustrate how government favoritism in the marketplace leads to societal injustices. He advocates for free trade as a means to promote prosperity and warns against the dangers of government intervention in economic relationships.
