O knihe

First published in 1919, John Atkinson Hobson's "Richard Cobden - The International Man" is a detailed biography of the life and work of English manufacturer, radical and liberal statesman Richard Cobden (1804 - 1865). Contents include: "Cobden's Preparation for Polities", "Cobden As Pamphleteer", "The Tour in Europe, 1846-7", "The Policy of Non-intervention, 1850-2", "Palmerstonian Foreign Policy", "The Crimean War and the Indian Mutiny", "An Interlude of Peace", "The French Treaty", "Correspondence", "The Civil War and the Summer Letters", etc. John Atkinson Hobson (1858 - 1940) was an English social scientist and economist most famous for his work on imperialism-which notably had an influence on Vladimir Lenin-as well as his theory of underconsumption. His early work also questioned the classical theory of rent and predicted the Neoclassical "marginal productivity" theory of distribution. Other notable works by this author include: "Evolution of Modern Capitalism" (1894), "Problem of the Unemployed" (1896), and "John Ruskin: Social Reformer" (1898). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an excerpt from "Ten Englishmen of the Nineteenth Century" by James Richard Joy.
