About this ebook

Dive into the intellectual battleground of economic fallacies with Frederic Bastiat's Economic Sophisms.


Bastiat unveils the deceptive rhetoric and flawed logic behind common misconceptions about trade, protectionism, and government intervention. With wit and clarity, he dismantles fallacious arguments and illuminates the virtues of free markets and individual freedom.


A masterpiece of economic literature, Economic Sophisms equips readers with the intellectual ammunition needed to challenge prevailing economic dogmas and advocate for a society grounded in liberty and prosperity.

    Disappointing. Bastiat has a rare reputation as an economist who could write in clear language. While the First Series of his Sophisms contains some fantastic writing, the Second Series is surprisingly dull with some horribly laboured and long winded stuff. The work is also let down by its uncompromising embrace of the discredited at the time Labour Theory of Value.
