About This Book

The author delivers five public speeches arguing for revision of fiscal policy toward protective tariffs and for a positive, organized imperial policy. He examines theoretical and practical grounds for tariff reform and situates it within a broader national strategy. He discusses the responsibilities and organization of unionist politics and defends a conservative Second Chamber as a restraint on hasty legislation. He addresses social reform, focusing on labor conditions, and diagnoses sweated industries while urging regulatory and philanthropic measures to raise workplace standards.

The
Fundamental Fallacies
of Free Trade

By L.S. AMERY

(FELLOW OF ALL SOULS COLLEGE, OXFORD)

Price 2s. net.


These "Four Addresses on the Logical Groundwork of the Free Trade Theory," as they are described by the author on the title-page, are nothing less than a frontal attack on the dogmas of the Manchester School, as sacrificing the permanent interests of the nation to the ephemeral interests of the individual. They are bound on account of their originality and ability to provoke considerable controversy, and to compel the Cobdenites to make some attempt at an answer. The chapters are successively entitled "The Individualist Fallacy," "The Capitalist Fallacy," "The Trade Fallacy," and "Free Trade Psychology and Free Trade History."

This is essentially a book to be read, marked, learned, and inwardly digested by all serious students of public affairs.

The
SPECTATOR
says:

"We do not hesitate to say that the 'National's Episodes' are among the most brilliant, if, indeed, not the most brilliant, contributions to modern political journalism. Their verve, their fearlessness, their independence, and their sincerity would alone render them remarkable; but in addition they are written in a style as clear and buoyant as it is picturesque and unconventional."
