Economics and Politics: A Series of Papers upon Public Questions Written on Various Occasions from 1840 to 1885 is a book written by Rowland Gibson Hazard and published in 1889. The book is a collection of essays and papers that Hazard had written over a period of forty-five years on various public questions related to economics and politics. The book is divided into four parts, each containing papers written on a different topic. Part one focuses on questions related to the American economy, including topics such as free trade, tariffs, and banking. Part two deals with political issues, such as the role of government in society, democracy, and the rights of citizens. Part three is devoted to questions related to international trade and diplomacy, including papers on the British Corn Laws, the French Revolution, and the American Civil War. Finally, part four contains papers on miscellaneous topics, such as the history of Rhode Island, the nature of education, and the role of religion in society. Throughout the book, Hazard offers his views on a wide range of issues, drawing on his experience as a businessman, politician, and social reformer. He argues for a more open and democratic society, with greater freedom for individuals and a more equitable distribution of wealth. Overall, Economics and Politics is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the economic and political history of the United States in the nineteenth century, and offers insights into the thinking of one of the era’s most prominent public intellectuals.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
