Autorenporträt

Frédéric Bastiat (1801-1850) was a leading economist, philosopher, and a passionate advocate for individual liberty and free trade. Born in Bayonne, France, Bastiat witnessed the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars and the tumultuous shifts in political economy during his lifetime. He began his scholarly journey by studying at a school in Sorèze and later plunged into the world of business and agriculture. However, it was his prodigious work in political economy that garnered him enduring recognition. Bastiat's keen intellect and satirical wit were evident in his incisive critiques of socialism and protectionism, which were highly influential in 19th-century economic thought. His seminal work, 'Essays on Political Economy' gathers together his profound insights on law, government intervention, and market dynamics. Bastiat's 'Candlemaker's Petition,' a brilliant satire, and 'The Law,' which explores the proper role of the state, are among his most celebrated pieces featured in this collection. His literary style, characterized by clear logic and sharp humor, has made his writings accessible and enjoyable, securing his place as a cornerstone in classical liberal thought. Bastiat's contributions transcend his era, informing debates on economics and policy even into the 21st century.
