Excerpt from Value and an Invariable Unit of Value
"Of all the economic contradictions, value is that which, dominating the others and summing them up, holds, in a sense, the sceptre of society: I had almost said of the moral world. Until value... arrives at its constitution, thine and mine remain fixed arbitrarily; the conditions of fortune are the effect of chance; property rests on a precarious title; everything in social economy is provisional.
"What should social, intelligent, and free beings have learned from this uncertainty of value? To make amicable regulation that should protect labor and guarantee exchange and cheapness. What a happy opportunity for all to make up, by honesty, disinterestedness, and tenderness of heart, for the ignorance of the objective laws of the just and the unjust. Instead of that, commerce has everywhere become, by spontaneous effort and unanimous consent, an uncertain operation, a venturesome enterprise, a lottery, and often a deceitful and fraudulent speculation."
(Proudhon's "System of Economical Contradictions," page 421.)

Impresión bajo demandaLibrería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Calificación del vendedor: 4 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book tackles the enigma of value in economics, a fundamental concept underpinning the justice of market exchanges. By unraveling the complexities of value determination, the author challenges the prevailing views on the subject, which have long plagued the field of economics and hindered its progress. Through a rigorous examination of various economic perspectives, the author argues that value should be understood as difficulty of attainment, a view that clashes with the tendency to equate value with material substances. By challenging the notion of a commodity-based standard of value and proposing an invariable unit, this book offers a fresh and innovative approach to economic theory, paving the way for significant advancements in the field and laying the groundwork for a more equitable and just economic system. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330639252_0
