Progress and Poverty was published in 1879. Almost immediately it became a best-seller, and. 100 years later it would be true to say that few textbooks on economics have matched the popularity of Henry George's great work, for the main principle - that society should be free of the monopolies, which prevent people from pursuing their private interests in the spheres of politics and economics without let or hindrance — remains relevant. (...) But new problems have emerged in the 20th century, such as the need to conserve finite resources, disputes over the ownership of ocean-bed minerals and conflicts over the right to monopolize the world's air-waves. Henry George's critique provides the modern reader with the basic principles on which to understand these contemporary problems and make enlightened decisions. Progress and Poverty is as vital today as it was 100 years ago." #ProgressAndPoverty #instaread #Antiquarian #Keynesianism #SingleTax #BooksBooksBooks #booksale #instabooks #EconomicCycles #readersofinstagram #Economics #bookcollecting #Capitalism #Scarce #Bookworm #HenryGeorge #Monopolies #Vintage #bibliophile #Books #CuttleboneBooks #PoliticalEconomy #collectiblebooks #BooksBooksBooks #Bookstagram #SingleTax #booksforsale
