Abstract
This paper examines the treatment of David Ricardo's Principles of Political Economy and Taxation at the hands of its major editors since its original publication in 1817. It seeks to isolate the way in which the general nature and significance of that book has been presented by its various editors in an effort to find out how much has changed, and how much has remained the same. It shows that, with one notable exception, there is a remarkable continuity in the key dimensions of the ‘Figure of Ricardo’ that has been transmitted down the years.
期刊介绍:
Contributions to Political Economy provides a forum for the academic discussion of original ideas and arguments drawn from important critical traditions in economic analysis. Articles fall broadly within the lines of thought associated with the work of the Classical political economists, Marx, Keynes, and Sraffa. While the majority of articles are theoretical and historical in emphasis, the journal welcomes articles of a more applied character. It also reviews noteworthy books recently published.
