Description

Explore a groundbreaking study on George Berkeley's revolutionary views on money and banking. Exciting the Industry of Mankind serves as the first comprehensive book dedicated to Berkeley's unique economic philosophy. This work examines how Berkeley broke the traditional conceptual link between money and metallic substance in his influential publication, The Querist. By analyzing the economic and social forces that led Berkeley to write The Querist between 1735 and 1737, this book provides deep insight into his response to a major economic crisis in Ireland. It challenges the common misconception that Berkeley's ideas lack relevance to modern times. Instead, this volume demonstrates how his historical perspectives offer significant value for understanding our present and future social and economic landscapes. This addition to the International Archives of the History of Ideas is an essential resource for students and researchers of economic history.
