Publisher's Summary

First published as a pamphlet in 1850 in response to the socialist-communist plans and ideas being adopted in France at that time, The Law remains equally relevant today, as the same ideas are now sweeping America.

Dry presentation but..

The content is superb and relevant to today.
Bastiat lays out the go-to refutation of vanilla socialism.

Brilliant primer on government and rights

This is a brilliant primer on the nature of government, the foolishness of collectivism and how human rights should be central to every human.
