Principles of Social Science. First edition. "Carey's economic views were sharply at variance with those of Ricardo and Malthus, and reflect the optimistic characteristic of American conditions favourable to economic expansion" (New Palgrave I, p. 370)."The two leading themes of his writings were protectionism and harmony of interests... The scope of Carey's optimistic belief in a harmonious order gradually widened... In the Principles of Social Science Carey expands his vision of a harmonious order to apply to the universe... Carey has been characterized as 'easily the most perverse and the most original American political economist before Veblen' (Conkin)" (ibid.).
