The author analyzes the policies of the government and its impact on the growth of industries. He discusses the various acts passed by the government to promote the growth of industries, such as the Navigation Acts, which restricted foreign competition, and the Enclosure Acts, which allowed for the privatization of common lands.The second part of the book focuses on the emergence of laissez-faire economics. The author discusses the ideas of Adam Smith and David Ricardo, who advocated for free trade and minimal government intervention in the economy. He also examines the impact of laissez-faire economics on the growth of industries and the working conditions of the labor force.Throughout the book, the author provides a detailed analysis of the Industrial Revolution, including its causes, impact, and legacy. He also discusses the social and economic changes that occurred during this period, including the rise of the middle class and the decline of the artisan class.Overall, ""The Industrial Revolution: Being The Parts Entitled Parliamentary Colbertism And Laissez Faire"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Industrial Revolution and its impact on modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
