Product Description
FILANGIERI, Cayetano Ciencia de la Legislacion …. Nuevamente traducida por Don Juan Ribera. Segunda edicion, revista y corregida. Burdeos [Bordeaux]: Don Pedro Beaume. 1823.
12mo, six volumes: clxviii, 166; 316; 364; 380; 357; 360 pp; occasional minor foxing. Contemporary tree calf, gilt decorated spines, rubbed and scuffed in places, vol. 3 chipped at head of spine. With the bookplate of Jose F. Hevia.
Filangieri (1752-1788), Italian philosopher and jurist, was one of the most important writers on economics in the latter years of the [19th] century. He did not … create new systems, or any new theory; he had a considerable acquaintance with the economical studies of his time, but it is strange he knew nothing about Smith, whom he never refers to. However, he followed no leader, standing between the physiocratic and mercantile theories. He was a zealous partisan of free-trade and the single tax, while he believed in the Balance of Trade; so that he may be termed eclectic, but not in the same sense as his fellow-citizen Galiani. Filangieri is a connecting link between Mercantilism and Free Trade; …. In sending his work to the Marquis Tommasi, [he] explains that he owed to Playfair his opinions against establishing a national debt, to meet the extraordinary requirements of the state. Palgrave.
The first two volumes of 'La Scienza della Legislazione' were published in 1780, with the third and fourth volumes appearing in 1783, and volumes 3-6 published in 1785.
This edition not listed in Goldsmiths'.
