Monopolies And Trusts (1900)

Monopolies and Trusts, written by Richard Theodore Ely and originally published in 1900, is a comprehensive study of the economic and social implications of monopolies and trusts in the United States during the late 19th century. The book explores the history and development of monopolies and trusts, their impact on competition and prices, and their effects on workers and consumers. Ely argues that monopolies and trusts are detrimental to the public interest and that government intervention is necessary to regulate and control them. He also discusses the role of labor unions and the need for collective bargaining to counteract the power of monopolies and trusts. The book is a seminal work in the field of economics and remains relevant today as debates about the role of government in regulating business continue.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
