Revision as of 19:57, 8 June 2023

Physiocracy is an economically centre-right ideology which is the child of Enlightenment Thought and Agrarianism. Physiocracy believes that wealth of nations stems primarily from land agriculture and development and agricultural labour[1], this made them have an important emphasis on productive work as the source of national wealth, which put him at odds with Mercantilism who focused on the ruler's wealth, accumulation of gold, or the balance of trade.

Also, another contrasting point with Mercantilism was that the Mercantilists believed that the value of the products was created at the point of sale, by the seller exchanging said products for more than the products had been worth before that point, the Physiocrats, on the other hand, held labour as the original source of value.

However, for the Physiocrats, this only applied for agricultural labour and agricultural products.[2] All the non-agricultural labour was "unproductive appendage" to agricultural labour.[3]

Physiocracy as a young lad, mostly talked about economics with his brother and later in his life he became father to Georgism.

  • Laissez-Faire

The Physiocrats also believed that self-interest drove each segment of the economy to play its role. Although this doesn't mean a person can't labor explicitely for others' benefit instead of one's own, they will work the hardest for their own sake. The system works as a complementary relationship between one person's needs and another person's desires through markets and the free exchange of goods and services, thus, trade restrictions place an unnatural barrier to achieving one's goals.[4]

  • Investment of Capital

Physiocrats recognized that capital was key for the production process, and they were proponents of saving some of each year's profits to re-invest on productivity improvements. Capital is also needed to sustain the laborers while they produced. They also recognized that there is opportunity cost and risk involved in using capital for something other than the sole land ownership, thus they believed that interest served a "strategic function in the economy."[5]

Personality

There isn't much of a consensus on Physiocracy's personality besides that he likes to spend his time in the countryside.
