ABSTRACT
The political economy of Thomas Robert Malthus noticed in relation to the essay on population. In the foregoing brief review of the economical doctrines of Malthus, focuses on commercial policy and the Corn Laws. The essay on population was supposed to deal with the state of population in past and in present times. It is supposed to deal with the different systems of expedients which have been proposed or have prevailed in society for curing the evils arising from the principle of population. The essay relates to the future prospects of society, and the possibility of removing the evils in question. Malthus is the father not only of the new Poor Law, but of all our latter-day societies for the organization of charity. The new Poor Law of 1834 differed from Malthus in that it did not deny the right to relief, and still kept up the fiction that the law of Elizabeth was good, and degenerated from it.
