OBSERVATIONS sur la véritable constitution de la Provence, au sujet de la contribution des trois ordres aux charges publiques et communes. Pour l'usage des propriétaires des fiefs.
A Aix, Des Imprimeries de B. Gibelin-David & T. Emeric-David, 1788. 406 pp. 4to. Modern cloth. Kress B.1464; not in Goldsmiths. Original edition. Signed on the title-page by the clerk of the court, Bertrand, as was required. The publication of this volume was deemed necessary with an eye on educating those involved in discussing the new constitution and laws of the Provence concerning the various contributions of the three orders. The project generated an enormous number of proposals which often showed grave misunderstanding and misrepresentation of the constitution and the law. This work was printed on the expense of the nobility.

Kress S.3753; Goldsmiths 10754 (4th edition, 1771); Higgs 5215 (also the 4th edition); not in INED; not in Einaudi. First illustrated editon, preceded by two editions without illustrations. Pierre Remond de Sainte-Albine (1699-1778), collaborator of the journal l'Europe savante and later working for the Mercure; he was also member of the Berlin Academy.An effort on behalf of the author to overcome the resistance of craft guilds to the introduction of rolled lead sheeting for roofing and gutters. Rolled lead had been in use in the UK since 1670. But the first mill to produce this product in France was established only in 1729 and met with considerable resistance from the guild of plumbers. This pamphlet defends the advantages of rolled sheet versus cast lead and also goes into a good explanation of manufacturing techniques (all illustrated). The engraver of the plates is identified as Dheulland, presumably G. Dheulland who worked on Belidor's massive hydraulic architecture book.

Rare first Danish edition of the monumental main work by one of the absolutely most influential classical economists, David Ricardo, the systematizer of economics. The Danish translation is translated from the third edition, which appeared in 1821.David Ricardo (1772-1823) was born in London as the son of a Dutch Jew. Initially Ricardo was primarily interested in science and mathematics, but after having read Adam Smith's ""Wealth of Nations"" in 1799, he devoted himself entirely to political economy, and in 1817 he could publish his seminal work ""The Principles of Political Economy and Taxation"" (see PMM 277). Two years later, in 1819, Ricardo was elected to the Parliament, and became the House's acknowledged expert on economic affairs, -also as such he considerably influenced the opinion towards free trade.There are three classical economists, who must be said to have fundamentally changed political economy, and they are Adam Smith, Thomas Robert Malthus, and David Ricardo, -the three main founders of ""modern economic analysis"". On the basis of ""The Wealth of Nations"", classical political economy could be founded by Malthus and Ricardo, -in his ""Principles"". Ricardo was in doubt as to whether he should publish his later so exceedingly famous work, but was persuaded to do so by his friend James Mill, chief Apostle of the Utalitarians, and so he did in 1817, when the work presented the population of Great Britain with some very unexpected conclusions. Enlarging on the Physiocrats, Ricardo places the interest of the landlord and that of the community in the most violent opposition, -he states: ""the interest of the landlord is necessarily opposed to the interest of every other class in the community."" On the grounds of this theory, he gathered quite a number of opponents, who considered this the embodiment of injustice and strongly opposed of his theories. ""Ricardo, in his paradox to arrest attention, outlined the case for class war. It is one of the issues which John Stuart Mill will be forced to confront, and upon which Marx built his theory and makes his observations."" (Catlin, A History of the Political Philosophers, Ldn., 1950, p. 374). In opposition to Smith, Ricardo was not interested in the value as the principle for the equal exchange between differentiated individuals, but in it as the means of building up theories of the relation between wages, profits and rents and their distribution to landlords, capitalists and labourers, -thus developing the famous theory of ""labour as measure"". Against Malthus he opposes the interest of the agriculturalist as against that of the free-trading manufacturer, -one of his distinctive contributions to economics lies in expounding the monopoly theory of rent. ""Ricardo was, in a sense, the first ""scientific"" economist. Lacking Smith's warmth and sympathy for humanity and for the labourer in particular, Ricardo saw the study of economics as a pure science whose abstractions were capable of quasi-mathematical proof. Although his theorems remain hypothetical, his deductive methods have proved a great use in the elementary analysis of economic problems, currency and banking, it has proved a lasting value."" (Printing and the Mind of Man 277).The work is groundbreaking in numerous respects, one of them being that Ricardo here also sets out to establish paper-money, -he actualized this as well as the theory that the banks should convert its stock of gold into standardized gold bars, -this is the reason why the very first gold bars, as we know them, were called ""Ricardos""" the first was issued in 1820.The work has been immensely influential throughout Europe, and has had a strong effect on Danish liberal thought and politics.

An Essay on the Nature & Significance of Economic Science. - [DEFINING 20TH CENTURY ECONOMICS]
London, Macmillan & Co., 1932. 8vo. In the original green embossed cloth with gilt lettering to spine. Printed on thick paper. A few scratches to back board. Otherwise an very fine copy. XII, 141, (3) pp.
First edition of Robbins's landmark publication, in which he sought to define more precisely economics as a science. With the present publication he became instrumental in shifting Anglo-Saxon economics from its Marshallian direction which eventually caused the breakthrough of neo-classical (Walrasian) definition of economics. The work is ""one of the most cited, if not most read, books on the subject in the period 1932-60, and it influenced greatly economists' views about the nature of their discipline."" (The New Palgrave). The definitions of economics presented here ""were widely accepted by the world of academic economists and are still propagated"" (The New Palgrave).Robbins put forth two central themes, both having a lasting and deep influence upon economics of the 20th century, the first being: ""That economic science could be clearly demarcated from those discussions of economic issues that involved value judgments - by which latter term Robbins meant evaluation statements of the form 'better or worse' where inter-personal comparisons of utility were involved. He also argued that there was a clear demarcation between economic science and other branches of social enquiry such as social psychology, sociology, politics and so on.""The second major theme was that the subject matter of economic science was not a particular activity (for example, Cannan's view that economics was the science of wealth), but rather an aspect of all human conduct. This aspect was the 'fact' of economic scarcity - a manifestation of unlimited ends on the part of individuals and society and means of satisfying those ends that were limited in supply. In word so often quoted in economics text Robbins defined economic science as 'that science that studies the relationship between ends and means that have alternative uses' - a definition that is more than reminiscent of Menger's exposition of the economizing process."" (The New palgrave)Lionel Robbins (1898 - 1984) was a British (mainly theoretical) economist and head of the economics department at the London School of Economics. In macroeconomics Robbins's was a firm exponent of the Hayek's - and the Austrian school in general - teachings whom he brought to the London School of Economics in 1928. His liberal view was expressed when he famously, together with Joseph Schumpeter, advocated that nothing should be done about the 1929-depression and that it had to run its course since this alone would create a lasting development out of the depression.
