  • 内容简介
  • 针对资本收益的主体,必须要考虑调整租金的上升和下降的原理;租金和利润,我们将看到,它们彼此之间有非常亲密的关系。调整租金的原则是在书中会有简要说明,但是和已经全面发展并出版了优秀作品的马尔萨斯先生的观点在程度上有非常轻微的不同。马尔萨斯先生的出版物从一般原理的阐述,作者相信就利润和财富所关注的问题,自己也是对此持有相同的意见,但是在他看来依赖国外供应给我们大部分食物具有可怕危险,他认为限制进口才是明智的。

    In treating on the subject of the profits of capital, it is necessary to consider the princples which regulate the rise and fall of rent; as rent and profits, it will be seen, have a very intimate connexion with each other. The principles which regulate rent are briefly stated in the following pages, and differ in a very slight degree from those which have been so fully and so ably developed by Mr Malthus in his late excellent publication. From the general principle set forth in al Mr Malthus's publications, the author is persuaded that he holds the same opinion as far as profit and wealth are concerned with the question; -- but, viewing, as he does, the danger as formidable of depending on foreign supply for a large portion of our food, he considers it wise, on the whole, to restrict importation.

  • 大卫·李嘉图(1772—1823),英国资产阶级古典政治经济学的主要代表之一,也是英国资产阶级古典政治经济学的完成者。李嘉图早期是交易所的证券经纪人,后受《国民财富的性质和原因的研究》一书的影响,激发了他对经济学研究的兴趣,其研究的领域主要包括货币和价格,对税收问题也有一定的研究。李嘉图的主要经济学代表作是1817年完成的《政治经济学及赋税原理》,书中阐述了他的税收理论。1819年他曾被选为下院议员,极力主张议会改革,鼓吹自由贸易。李嘉图继承并发展了斯密的自由主义经济理论。他认为限制国家的活动范围、减轻税收负担是增长经济的最好办法。

    David Ricardo, (born April 18/19, 1772, London, England—died September 11, 1823, Gatcombe Park, Gloucestershire), English economist who gave systematized, classical form to the rising science of economics in the 19th century. His laissez-faire doctrines were typified in his Iron Law of Wages, which stated that all attempts to improve the real income of workers were futile and that wages perforce remained near the subsistence level.
