The first of three pamphlets bound together in one volume, "Political Economy" centres on the worsening conditions of the working-class population. It is based on the lectures on political economy which Chlamers had given at Edinburgh University in 1830-31. McCulloch's review, the second article, challenges Chalmer's viewpoints, particularly questioning his continuing commitment to the Malthusian perspective. The third piece in the volume, Chalmers' reply, contains condemnation of industrialization which he saw as threatening traditiobal institutions and entailing significant costs to individuals.
