Synopsis

National System of Economics offers a practical framework for prosperity through free trade, industry policy, and national planning.

This edition outlines a systematic approach to building wealth and a stronger nation by aligning trade, production, and government policy. It covers ideas on tariffs, industrial policy, standardisation, and investments in education and infrastructure to support both domestic and imperial commerce.

From tariff design to supporting modern industry, the book argues for a science-based economics that emphasizes freedom of trade while recognizing strategic protections. It also presents concrete objectives for government action, including a Ministry of Industry and Commerce, price and wage policies, and measures to boost agriculture, transportation, and credit for industry.

• A framework for national economics built on freedom of trade as a foundation for policy
• Proposals for a Ministry of Industry and Commerce and for standardized methods across sectors
• Concrete goals like a minimum wage, tax and tariff guidance, and development of home and imperial markets
• Strategies to conserve resources, improve transport, credit, and small land ownership to boost prosperity

Ideal for readers seeking a historical, policy-driven view of how trade, industry, and national planning can shape a nation’s economy.
