 Title:  A Discourse on Political Economy  
 Published:  2002 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text 
 Description: THE word Economy, or Œconomy, is derived from oikos, a house, and vomos, law, and meant originally only the wise and legitimate government of the house for the common good of the whole family. The meaning of the term was then extended to the government of that great family, the State. To distinguish these two senses of the word, the latter is called general or political economy, and the former domestic or particular economy. The first only is discussed in the present discourse.
