SISMONDI (Jean Charles Léonard Sismonde de). New principles - Lot 118
SISMONDI (Jean Charles Léonard Sismonde de). New principles of political economy, or Of wealth in its relations with the population. Second edition. Paris, Delaunay, 1827. 2 volumes in-8, dmei-basane aubergine, smooth spine decorated with gold filets, speckled edges (contemporary binding). Goldsmiths, #25201. - Einaudi, #5307. The best edition of Sismondi's major book, the author having here almost absolutely recast the original 1819 version. Sismondi (1773-1842), a native of Switzerland, was one of the leading economists of the nineteenth century and had a great influence on Karl Marx, who cited him in his Communist Party Manifesto. He was one of the first to study economics from a historicist approach and to criticize the economic model promoted by David Ricardo, which he believed should necessarily encourage the concentration of wealth (cf. Umberto Mazzei, Sismondi, a precursor ignored by Marx, Slatkine, 2018). In short, a denunciation of industrial capitalism and worker exploitation, or to use the words of Gide and Rist in their History of Economic Doctrines (1909, p. 195), an unforgettable picture of the suffering and misery born of free competition. Spine past, rubbing of the binding, including an epidermis with a bit.
