Frédéric Bastiat wrote numerous essays or pamphlets which the used to promote his ideas and to combat errors. Many of his important essays or pamphlets are included in this volume. Of these, “The Law” and “What Is Seen and "What Is Not Seen” are well known; others are not so familiar. Henry Hazlitt in his Economics in One Lesson said this regarding “What Is Seen and What Is Not Seen”: “The following work may, in fact, be regarded as a modernization, extension, and generalization of the approach found in Bastiat’s pamphlet.” The Editor is responsible for the arrangement of the essays in the present volume. This translation follows as faithfully as possible the originalFrench standard edition of the complete works of Bastiat. Cross references have been included among the three volumes of the present translation. Three types of notes are included: Translator’s notes are directed at the general reader and are mainly about persons and terms. Editor’s notes refer to notes by the editor of the French edition; Bastiat’s notes stand without such notations. Only the Translator’s notes are at the bottom of the page; Editor’s notes and Bastiat’s notes are at the end of the volume. The latter two are more important but were put at the back to avoid cluttering the pages and to promote readability. in either economic harmonies or economic sophisms.
