Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. We list the ISBN of our first book in this lot, "The Exploitation Theory," an as-new unread 1975 octavo trade paperback from The Libertarian Press with no spine creases but with a soft fold to top outside corner of rear wrap. Publisher's previous address (South Holland, Illinois) has been corrected to title page by addition of a sticker bearing new address in Spring Mills, Pennsylvania. This text is extracted from Chapter XII of the first volume of Bohm-Bawerk's three-volume, 1,248-pg. "Capital and Interest," that being his 512-pg. "History and Critique of Interest Theories." The author concludes the Exploitation Theory "is not only fallacious, but considered from the point of view of theoretical soundness, it occupies one of the lowest places among all theories of interest." Nowhere else, he concludes, do we find "the worst errors concentrated in such abundance -- frivolous, premature assumptions, specious dialecticism, inner contradictions and blindness to the facts of reality." The socialists "believe in the exploitation theory because of its conformity to their preferences, and despite its fallaciousness." 160 pp., here reduced from $25. Our second book in this lot, another octavo trade paperback, this one published 2009 by the Ludwig von Mises Institute, "The Strike-Threat System," ISBN 0-87000-186-8, is an as-new unread trade paperback with glossy pictorial wraps and a "Docutech crimp." as made. Reprint of a book originally published by Arlington House 1973, and in fact the given ISBN (the only one printed here) may actually refer to that earlier edition. "The strike is a form of warfare and the expectation of its use -- as a fact or as a threat -- has come to condition nearly all private policy in determining wage offers. The strike-threat system has created a species of continuous aggression and resistance to aggression; and union policymakers have felt it essential to keep alive and undamped suspicion of and lurking hostility toward management and investors. . . ." The author's final chapter deals with the 1935 Wagner Act and the "closed shop." He speculates on the possible future impact of proposed state "right-to-work" laws. The other major change in the intervening 50 years, of course, is that the major unionized sector of the American work force is now government employees, whose employers can't lose market share to competitors if union tactics drive wages and benefits (including pensions) above competitive levels . . . since government seldom allows itself any competitors, and because our masters see no limit in the extent to which the peasants can be squeezed to pay any salary or pension they can dream of. 294 pp. including index, this second book in the lot of two volumes on related topics now reduced from $18.
