Excerpt from American Principles on National Prosperity: A Thanksgiving Sermon, Preached in the First Presbyterian Church, Elizabethtown, November 23, 1854 A' civil constitution, founded on true principles, Is an element of prosperity. Where principles sub versive of the natural rights of man are introduced into civil constitutions, they give rise to conflicts and jealousies. Such we find in the British constitution, the most free on earth, save our own. All men are equal; yet it discriminates in behalf of classes. The consequences are a limited aristocracy and millions of peasantry; a few thousands of enormous wealth, and hundreds of thousands of squalid beggars. TO all men belongs the right Of worshipping God as con science dictates; and yet it grants peculiar privileges to those who conform to that enormous imposition a religion of State. -we Should be thankful that we have a constitution founded on truth, .and guarding all the natural rights of man.

This early work by Richard T. Ely was originally published in 1917 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Foundations of National Prosperity, Studies in the Conservation of Permanent National Resources' is an academic work and contains chapters on 'Conservation and Forestry', 'Economic Principles of Conservation', 'Conservation Policies', and much more. Richard Theodore Ely was born on 13th April 1854, in Ripley, New York, United States. Ely began his academic career as a professor and head of the Department of Political Economy at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, where he worked from 1881 to 1892. During this period, Ely co-founded the American Economic Association and served as the group's secretary. He stood as President of the organisation between 1899 and 1901. The Association still titles its annual keynote address the 'Richard T. Ely Lecture' in recognition of his services to the field. Ely published many works on politics and economics, including The Labor Movement in America (1886), Elementary Principles of Economics (1904), Property and Contract in their Relations to the Distribution of Wealth (1914), Russian Land Reform (1916), and many more.
On August 24-25, 2010, the National Defense University held a conference titled “Economic Security: Neglected Dimension of National Security?” to explore the economic element of national power. This special collection of selected papers from the conference represents the view of several keynote speakers and participants in six panel discussions. It explores the complexity surrounding this subject and examines the major elements that, interacting as a system, define the economic component of national security.
Excerpt from Principles of National Economy This book is frankly written from the national point of view. Someone has suggested that much futile discussion would be prevented if everyone were required to point at the thing of which he was talking. It would be a wise rule if no one would ever speak or write about "society," or "the community" in general, but only of such groups as can be named and located. The United States of America is such a group. So also are England, France, Canada, and a number of others. These and similar groups are the largest that are capable of carrying through definite economic policies. Not only is this book written from the national point of view; it is frankly a theory of national prosperity. In this respect the author has the illustrious example of the great Adam Smith, whose work was entitled "An Enquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations." Prosperity is assumed to be desirable and worthy of the highest efforts of the scholar in economics as well as the statesman. It is believed to require not only an ample production but also a fair distribution of the products among all classes to the end that all may share in the national prosperity. The writer may be accused of bringing purely ethical considerations into an economic discussion. He has no desire to repudiate the charge, certainly not on the ground that ethical considerations are unworthy of an economist. The charge, however, does not happen to be correct, unless a preference for national prosperity as against national poverty can justly be called an ethical preference. The author pleads guilty to this preference, and the book is written as an expression of it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
