Join 📚Jof’S Book Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Jophin's read, .
The introduction of political economy into the realm of the universal happened under two opposite perspectives, that of progress and perfectibility on the one hand, determinism and damnation on the other; its translation into practice also was achieved in two opposite ways, through the principle of harmony and self-regulation on the one hand, competition and conflict on the other. Economic liberalism and the class concept were preformed in these contradictions. With the finality of an elemental event, a new set of ideas entered our consciousness.
