Œuvres Complètes de Frédéric Bastiat, tome 3 by Frédéric Bastiat
"Œuvres Complètes de Frédéric Bastiat, tome 3" by Frédéric Bastiat is a comprehensive collection of economic writings, likely produced during the mid-19th century. This volume specifically discusses the English agitation for free trade, particularly focusing on Richard Cobden and the Anti-Corn-Law League. The central theme revolves around the principles of free exchanges and the critique of protectionism, emphasizing the injustices caused by monopolistic practices and the necessity for economic reform to ensurefairness and prosperity for all. At the start of this volume, Bastiat introduces the context of the economic struggles in England surrounding the Anti-Corn-Law League and its quest for free trade. He expresses his expectation that the ideas contained within could awaken interest and action among his readers regarding economic freedom. Bastiat critiques the prevailing protectionist attitudes in both England and France, illustrating how such policies perpetuate inequality and suffering for the working classes. He emphasizes Cobden's role in advocating for the abolition of monopolies and argues that true economic progress comes from the justice of freedom in exchanges, rather than coercive policies that benefit the elite at the expense of the laboring population.
