Excerpt from Cours d'Économie Politique, Vol. 4: Exposé des Causes Physiques, Morales Et Politiques, Qui Influent sur la Production de la Richesse; Fragments sur l'Impôt Et sur le Crédit
Que si l'on me permet d'emprunter encore une comparaison aux sciences exactes, c'est ainsi qu'en donnant à un artilleur deux quantités de poudre égales en apparence et deux bouches à feu sem blables à la vue, on ne pourra point exiger de lui d'atteindre le but avec les deux pièces, parce que d'une part il se peut que les deux charges ne soient pas réellement égales, et que de l'autre il se peut que les canons soient différents.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the complex relationship between physical, moral, and political factors, and their profound effect on a society's ability to generate wealth. The author argues that, beyond the traditional economic analysis of capital, labor, and land, external factors such as climate, soil, political institutions, cultural norms, and even religious beliefs play a significant role in shaping a nation's economic destiny. With a focus on historical context and a wealth of examples, this book explores how these diverse elements combine to influence productivity, technological innovation, and ultimately, a society's overall prosperity.
