| Publisher Description: Here, in this 1850 classic, a powerful refutation of Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto, published two years earlier, Bastiat discusses: - what is law? - why socialism constitutes legal plunder - the proper function of the law - the law and morality - "the vicious circle of socialism" - the basis for stable government - and more. French political libertarian and economist CLAUDE FR D RIC BASTIAT (1801-1850) was one of the most eloquent champions of the concept that property rights and individual freedoms flowed from natural law. |
