An Inquiry Into The Nature And Progress Of Rent - Thomas Robert Malthus

An Inquiry into the Nature and Progress of Rent: and the Principles by which it is Regulated (1815) is a book written by Thomas Robert Malthus, an English economist and demographer. The book examines the concept of rent, which refers to the payment made for the use of land or other natural resources. Malthus explores the various factors that influence the amount of rent paid, including the fertility of the land, the demand for the resource, and the cost of production. He also discusses the impact of rent on the economy, particularly in relation to the distribution of wealth and the growth of industry. Malthus argues that rent is an essential component of a capitalist economy, but that it must be regulated in order to prevent exploitation and ensure social stability. The book is considered a classic work in the field of political economy and has had a significant influence on the development of economic theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
