Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the original research of Thomas Malthus and William Godwin, two key figures in the debate over population growth at the turn of the nineteenth century. Godwin argued that Malthus was too pessimistic, and that in fact human progress in easing the burden of a rapidly…growing population would outpace the growth itself. However, the author's deep-dive into the Swedish population statistics used by Malthus and Godwin reaches a different conclusion, finding that Malthus was largely correct in his main assumptions. The author also explores the possibilities of the United States, at the time a relatively new nation, to avoid the problems inherent in a rigidly stratified society like Britain. Rich in detail and drawing on a wide array of sources, this book will interest not only scholars, but those seeking to better understand the evolution of economic and social thought. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
