Claude Frédéric Bastiat, 1801-1850
Journalist, economist and wit, Frederic Bastiat was a French free-trade
activist, author of the famous "Petition of the Candlemakers" and
numerous other satirical pieces that have since become classics of economic
commentary. His 1850 magnum, Economic
Harmonies opus perhaps reflects his optimistic laissez-faire position best - in
which he envisions the economic classes in a capitalist system, far from being at war, as
being in "harmony".
