The Law

For anyone interested in the philosophy of law and economics, Frederic Bastiat’s “The Law” is an absolute must-read. This timeless classic is still as relevant today as it was when first published over 160 years ago. In it, Bastiat offers a unique perspective on the role of law and its importance in society. He argues that the law should be used solely to protect personal rights, rather than being used to promote any particular economic or social agenda. His insight into the nature of government, private property, and civil liberties has stood the test of time and continues to offer invaluable insights into the relationship between government and citizens.
