The Essence of Mill's Economics: Principles of Political Economy, Essays on Some Unsettled Questions of Political Economy, Socialism & The Slave Power

This edition brings to you four outstanding works of John Stuart Mill, books which represent his economic philosophy in the best manner. In his work readers can observe his transformation from the supporter of free market to his acceptance of interventions in the economy, if there were sufficient utilitarian grounds. Alongside his economic philosophy Mill also discussed normative issues such as ideal systems of political economy, critiquing proposed systems such as communism and socialism.
