Bücher von Frederick Bastiat

""The Law"" by Frederic Bastiat is a classic work of political philosophy that explores the nature of law and its role in society. Bastiat argues that the purpose of law is to protect individual rights and property, and that any law that goes beyond this is unjust and violates the principles of liberty and justice. He also critiques the idea of government intervention in the economy, arguing that it leads to inefficiency, inequality, and corruption. The book is a powerful defense of individual freedom, and has been influential in shaping the ideas of classical liberalism and libertarianism. With clear and concise language, Bastiat's ""The Law"" is a must-read for anyone interested in political philosophy and the role of government in society.And, in all sincerity, can anything more than the absence of plunder be required of the law? Can the law -- which necessarily requires the use of force -- rationally be used for anything except protecting the rights of everyone? I defy anyone to extend it beyond this purpose without perverting it and, consequently, turning might against right.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
