SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"This is a study of economics, politics, and the morals of socialism and capitalism set in a systematic treatise on political theory. Interdisciplinary in scope, it discusses the central problems of political economy and political philosophy: how to organize society so as to promote the production of wealth and eradicate poverty, and how to arrange it so as to make it a just social order."--Back cover.
