| Summary | "Letters of David Ricardo to Thomas Robert Malthus, 1810-1823" by David Ricardo is a collection of correspondence between two prominent economists written in the early 19th century. This compilation showcases the intellectual exchanges between Ricardo and Malthus, focusing on their differing views on economic principles, value theory, currency issues, and the effects of various economic policies. At its core, the letters reveal the deep friendship and spirited debates between these two influential figures in the field of economics. The opening of this collection introduces readers to the context of the correspondence, highlighting that the letters span the duration of the friendship between Ricardo and Malthus, from 1810 to 1823. It notes that the letters, while containing some personal content, primarily address significant economic discussions, particularly those surrounding currency and the exchange rate issues caused by economic fluctuations. Ricardo reflects on various topics like the nature of currency supply, wealth distribution, and the differing points of view each economist holds toward economic processes. The early exchanges encapsulate the respectful yet contrasting perspectives that each thinker brings to their discussions, laying the groundwork for a deeper exploration of their theoretical disagreements throughout the collection.
