Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins and diverse manifestations of economic maladjustments between humans and nature, and how these maladjustments impact the relationship between humans themselves. Unlike non-economizing animals, humans actively adapt their environment to meet their desires. The author argues that economic scarcity arises from two conditions for which humans are partly responsible: expanding wants and increasing population. The resulting imbalance leads to competition and conflict among humans for the limited resources available, which in turn necessitates the development of institutions like property, the family, and the state to manage these conflicts. Through historical examples and diverse perspectives, the book challenges readers to consider the underlying causes of economic scarcity and to explore alternative paths toward greater harmony between humans and their environment, ultimately highlighting the profound influence economic maladjustments have on the social, political, and ethical dimensions of human societies.
