Get Access Mendeleev And The Economics Of Russian Protectionism: Chemistry, Industry And Growth Written And Illustrated By Vincent Barnett Offered In EText
I. Mendeleevis undoubtedly Russia's most famous scientist and one of the world's most famous chemists from any period, He is known and respected internationally as the inventor of the periodic table of elements and as a pioneer in the understanding of the nature of chemical periodicity, but what is far less recognised is that he was also a major economist and policymaker who had a profound influence on Russian development strategy in the latter part of the nineteenth century.
A key figure behind the development of thetariff in Russia, Mendeleev promoted protectionist ideas in many of his economic and political writings, and campaigned actively and successfully for the translation of such sentiment into concrete policies.
The author of numerous works in the field of economics, Mendeleev had a significant role in designing government economic policies, and his personal involvement in various aspects of economic and agricultural life in Russia was ongoing and deeply felt.
Despite this mass of activity and his body of work, there has so far been no booklength study in English of Mendeleev's economics both as theory and as policy.
Including, for the first time, the the translation from Russian into English of several important segments of Mendeleev's writings on economics, this volume will break new ground in its exploration of Mendeleev's economic thought, and of the relationship between this and his work on theoretical chemistry.
In doing so, the book will not only illuminate scholarly understanding of this important scientist and the Russia of his time, but also offers insights that are relevant to contemporary debates on
free trade.
some of his books are a fascination for readers like in the Mendeleev and the Economics of Russian Protectionism: Chemistry, Industry and Growth book, this is one of the most wanted Vincent Barnett author readers around the world.
