{"product_id":"on-revenues-xenophon-9781162677422","title":"On Revenues","description":"On Revenues is a book written by Xenophon, a Greek historian and philosopher, in which he discusses the management of public finances. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part focusing on the importance of having a good source of revenue for the state. Xenophon argues that a stable source of income is necessary for the survival of a state and that it should be managed efficiently.The second part of the book deals with the various sources of revenue that a state can have, such as agriculture, trade, and taxes. Xenophon provides advice on how to manage each of these sources effectively, including how to set fair tax rates and how to encourage trade and commerce.The third part of the book discusses the role of the state in managing public finances. Xenophon argues that the state should be responsible for collecting and managing revenue, and that this should be done with transparency and accountability. He also discusses the importance of having a balanced budget and avoiding overspending.Overall, On Revenues is a practical guide to managing public finances that offers valuable insights into the principles of sound fiscal management. It is a must-read for anyone interested in economics, politics, or public finance.The above facts are, I think, conclusive. They encourage us not only to introduce as much human labour as possible into the mines, but to extend the scale of operations within, by increase of plant, etc., in full assurance that there is no danger either of the ore itself being exhausted or of silver becoming depreciated. And in advancing these views I am merely following a precedent set me by the state herself. So it seems to me, since the state permits any foreigner who desires it to undertake mining operations on a footing of equality[9] with her own citizens.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
