ANTON MENGER'S remarkable study of the cardinal Dr doctrine of revolutionary socialism, now for the first W time published in English, has long enjoyed a wide reputation on the Continent; and English students of social philosophy, whether or not they are familiar with the original, will welcome its appearance in this trans- lation. The interest and importance of the subject will not be disputed, either by the opponents or the advocates of socialism ; and those who know how exceptionally Dr. Menger is qualified for work of this kind, by his juristic eminence, and his profound know- ledge of socialistic literature, will not need to be told that it has been executed with singular vigour and ability. Hitherto, perhaps because it was not generally accessible to English readers, the book has not received in this country the notice that it has met with elsewhere. Yet there are reasons why it should be of peculiar interest to English economists. The particular method of criticism adopted by Dr.

    THOMAS HODGSKIN AND ECONOMIC PROGRESS; A RADICAL RECONSTRUCTION OF HIS ENDOGENOUS GROWTH THEORY F.G. Day PhD 2009 THOMAS HODGSKIN AND ECONOMIC PROGRESS; A RADICAL RECONSTRUCTION OF HIS ENDOGENOUS GROWTH THEORY Frederick George Day A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Economics The Manchester Metropolitan University June 2009 1 Declaration I confirm that no part of this thesis has been submitted for the award of a qualification at this or any other university. 2 Abstract By means of a close reading of early 19th century economic works, and by reconstructing aspects of Thomas Hodgskin‘s political economy, this thesis presents an exposition of those parts of his work that contributed to his position on growth. Rather than concentrating on his ideas on capital, we have centred on his concept of political economy as a science concerned with labour as the sole creator of wealth. We present his political economy as having labour as its focal point within a hypothetical pure market economy. From here he sought a foundation to economic growth derived from human action rather than capital or other material circumstances. Hodgskin saw human knowledge and the use of technology as the starting point that would, from his perspective, lead inevitably to those economic conditions that produce improvements in economic welfare and by doing so allow for an increase in population. In order to demonstrate his ideas on growth, we reconstruct his concepts of what was natural and artificial to equate to the modern notions of endogenous and exogenous.

  • Energy and International Development: a Systems Approach to Economic Development
    In Ortega, E. & Ulgiati, S. (editors): Proceedings of IV Biennial International Workshop “Advances in Energy Studies”. Unicamp, Campinas, SP, Brazil. June 16-19, 2004. Pages 73-90 ENERGY AND INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT: A SYSTEMS APPROACH TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Charles Hall* & Jae-Young Ko** *State University of New York, New York **Texas A&M University at Galveston; Galveston, Texas 1. INTRODUCTION Probably just about everybody on this planet would like to be wealthier, and the poor most certainly would like that. But what is wealth? Does an increase in wealth necessarily mean an increase in human welfare? Does our dominant system of economics generate the most wealth? For whom? With what level of efficiency? What is it that we are trying to do when we encourage “international development”? What, if anything, is the role of science in these issues of economic development? Does an energy analyst have anything to add to the discussion of these issues, or is energy theory marginal to economics of development? In fact the objectives of development are generally put forth in monetary terms, that the goal of development is usually to increase per capita income. But how do we measure this income, or its approximate integral, wealth? How do we know when we are successful in the process of development? If we are in fact successful in increasing GDP have we met our goal of increasing human welfare? We take our cue from the objectives of this meeting: “(From) all over the world there is a demand for a new form of development that would really constitute an alternative to the present economic system”.

  • Heterodox Political Economy and the Degrowth Perspective
    Sustainability 2013, 5, 276-297; doi:10.3390/su5010276 OPEN ACCESS sustainability ISSN 2071-1050 www.mdpi.com/journal/sustainability Article Heterodox Political Economy and the Degrowth Perspective Kent Klitgaard Wells College, Aurora 13026, NY, USA; E-Mail: [email protected] Received: 14 November 2012; in revised form: 31 December 2012 / Accepted: 5 January 2013 / Published: 21 January 2013 Abstract: The transition to sustainability will be difficult. Environmental sustainability entails living within the Earth’s limits, yet the majority of scientific studies indicate a condition of overshoot. For mainstream economists sustainability means perpetuating economic growth. Consequently, environmental and economic sustainability are incompatible in the present institutional context. This paper seeks to develop a new theory of sustainability based upon historical and institutional contexts, the role of economic crises, as well as focusing upon energy quality and meaningful work. Mainstream economics, which emphasizes market self-regulation and economic growth, is not a good vehicle for a theory of sustainability. Better insights are to be found in the literature of heterodox political economy and political ecology. Political ecology is based upon the theory of monopoly capital. Monopoly capitalism exhibits a tendency towards stagnation, because the economic surplus cannot be absorbed adequately in the absence of system-wide waste. The Monthly Review School continues this tradition in the context of the metabolic rift, while the Capitalism, Nature and Socialism School develops the idea of a second contradiction of capitalism. The Social Structure of Accumulation school pursues the idea of long swings of economic activity based upon institutional structures that aid or inhibit capital accumulation.

COLE LONDON M A C M IL L A N & CO. 1953 This hook is copyright in all countries which are signatories to the Berne Convention PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN 74- p r e f a c e his book, although it stands by itself, is designed to be the first of a series forming together a general history of T Socialist thought. It covers, roughly, the years from 1789 to the middle of the nineteenth century; but even within the limits of space which I have set myself, it obviously leaves out some things which belong to that period. The biggest of these omissions is that of Russian Socialism — from Pestel’s projects of land nationalisation in the 1820s to Belinsky, Herzen, and Bakunin, who were all active well before 1850. This omission is deliberate, and will be made good in the second volume. I found it more convenient to postpone dis­ cussion of Herzen and Bakunin in order to be able to link them directly with later developments — Herzen with Cherni- shevsky and the Narodniks, and Bakunin with the struggles which split the First International and with the development of Anarchism. As against these omissions, I have carried the story of a number of thinkers with whom I have dealt in the present volume a long way beyond 1850.

  • The Infancy of Socialism 23
    BR Socialism 12/28/04 1:36 AM Page 22 22 The Infancy This is an extraordinarily good book, the outcome of many years of patient research. Mr. of Socialism Tawney’s Introduction informs us that the second volume was nearly completed at the outbreak of the war, and will, it is hoped, appear on the return of peace. Mr. Beer has performed a labour of love in rescuing the work of many British pioneers from the oblivion to which the carelessness of their countrymen would confine Bertrand Russell them. ‘From the thirteenth century to the present day,’ he says, ‘the stream of Socialism and social reform has largely been fed by British thought and experiment. Medieval schoolmen and statesmen, modern political philosophers, economists, poets and philanthropists of the British Isles have explored its course and enriched its volume, but left it to writers of other nations to name and describe it.’ His preface, evidently written before the outbreak of the war, takes a view of our mental character which is flattering and somewhat unusual: ‘The English intellect, from its sheer recklessness, is essentially revolutionary, probably more so than the French intellect. But since 1688 it has been the endeavour of English statesmen and educators to impart to the nation a conservative, cautiously moving temper, a distrust of generalisation, an aversion from carrying theory to its logical conclusions ... In periods of general upheavals, however, when the dynamic forces of society are vehemently asserting themselves, the English are apt to throw their mental ballast overboard and take the lead in revolutionary thought and action.

  • Charles Hall, Early English Socialist*
    J. R. DINWIDDY CHARLES HALL, EARLY ENGLISH SOCIALIST* Charles Hall's importance has been recognized by a number of scholars. He has been described by C. R. Fay as "the first of the early socialists", and by Mark Blaug as "the first socialist critic of the industrial revolution".1 According to Max Beer he provided "the first inter- pretation of the voice of rising Labour", and Anton Menger regarded him as "the first socialist who saw in rent and interest unjust appro- priations of the return of labour, and who explicitly claimed for the worker the undiminished product of his industry".2 Menger, in his book The Right to the Whole Produce of Labour (first published in German in 1886), devoted three or four pages to Hall and drew attention to his early formulation of the theory of surplus value. Since then there have been several discussions of Hall's work, but almost without exception they have been quite brief: perhaps the most notable are those provided by H. S. Foxwell in his introduction to the English translation of Menger,3 and by Beer in his History of British Socialism* H. L. Beales, who also wrote a few pages about him in his * I am grateful to Mr John Hooper for his helpful comments on a draft of this article. 1 C. R.

  • THE PROBLEM of POVERTY and the POLITICAL ECONOMY: the DISCOVERY of SOCIETY Notes on the Great Transformation by K
    THE PROBLEM OF POVERTY AND THE POLITICAL ECONOMY: THE DISCOVERY OF SOCIETY Notes on The Great Transformation by K. Polanyi Alfonso Sánchez Hormigo University of Zaragoza [email protected] 22nd Annual ESHET Conference (7-9th June, Complutense University of Madrid) 1. Introduction Karl Polanyi (1886-1964) published The Great Transformation in 1944, the same year in which The Road to Serfdom, the controversial book by Friedrich Hayek, was released. Polanyi had disputes with Hayek since the 1920s and 1930s, when he worked as a senior editor of the weekly economic magazine Der Österreichische Volkswirt, in which he had to cease to participate in 1933, during the rise of Adolf Hitler, due to his socialist ideals. Written during his tenure at the Bennington College of Vermont, the book was developed between 1939 and 1940; in Polanyi’s words, it was started and finished in England–where he was a lecturer in the Workers Educational Association in Morley College, London, in Canterbury and Bexhill, extensions of the Universities of Oxford and London. The publishing of this book coincided with the escalation of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, which is why its impact was temporarily overshadowed. The Great Transformation (hereinafter referred to as TGT for short) comprises three parts. The first one, “The International System”, and the third one, “Transformation in Progress”, analyze the circumstances that resulted in the First World War, the Great Depression, the advent and the rise of fascism in Europe, Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal and the first five-year plan for the national economy of the Soviet Union.1 This paper, however, revolves around analyzing the second part of the book, “Rise and Fall of Market Economy,” and more precisely, chapters 7 to 10, in which the author explores the causes of pauperism in England in the frame of the emergence of market liberalism and society’s response to protect itself from the damages suffered, especially by the poor strata.
