"Harmonies of Political Economy" by Frédéric Bastiat is a scientific publication written in the mid-19th century. The text explores the principles of political economy and their application to social philosophy through the lens of Bastiat's unique insights into economic relationships. It addresses the fundamental idea that human interests, when left free to operate in a truly economic environment, are harmoniously aligned rather than adversarial. The opening of the work lays the groundwork for understanding Bastiat's approach and intention behind the text. It includes a transcriber's note indicating that the original language has been preserved, while also stating that the first ten chapters were completed during Bastiat’s lifetime, with later chapters added posthumously. Furthermore, the introduction reflects on Bastiat’s life, particularly his belief in free trade and the necessity of spreading sound economic principles. His emphasis on liberty, property, and the harmonious nature of economic laws sets the thematic stage for the discussions that follow in the subsequent chapters.
