Shedding light on important topics in the history of economic and political thought, it examines Godwin’s rejection of the new industrial order and his insights into a post-acquisitive, post-conflictual future. It shows that Malthus felt Godwin had neglected the ever-increasing pressure of population on scarce food and that control could not be superseded by automaticity so long as the productivity of the land was limited by the law of nature...Godwin and Malthus situated their views on population in the broader context of individual choice, property rights, normative constraint and the status of the poor. Godwin and Malthus were committed to an economy that was equitable as well as efficient. Their proposals for social betterment make the book relevant to contemporary debates even as it sheds light on two giant thinkers of the past.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2024 | | 关键词 | Thomas Robert Malthus; William Godwin; Social attitudes towards poverty; State intervention; Freedom of | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-62113-0 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-62115-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-62113-0 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
