Constructive Democracy; The Economics Of A Square Deal is a book written by William Ellsworth Smythe and originally published in 1905. The book is a treatise on democracy and economics, and it explores the idea of a square deal for all members of society. Smythe argues that democracy is not just a political system, but also an economic system, and that a truly democratic society must ensure that all citizens have access to economic opportunities and resources. The book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the history and philosophy of democracy, and argues that democracy is the best system for promoting individual freedom, social progress, and economic prosperity. The second part focuses on the economic principles of democracy, and explores the role of government in ensuring economic equality and opportunity. Smythe argues that a democratic government must promote competition, regulate monopolies, and provide public goods and services. The final part of the book is a practical guide to implementing democratic economics. Smythe provides specific policy recommendations for promoting economic growth and reducing poverty, including progressive taxation, minimum wage laws, and public works programs. Overall, Constructive Democracy; The Economics Of A Square Deal is a seminal work on democratic economics, and it continues to be relevant to contemporary debates about economic inequality and social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
