First edition of the Nobel Prize-winning economist's classic treatise concerning man's freedom in society. Octavo, original cloth. Boldly signed by James Buchanan on the front free endpaper. Near fine in a very good dust jacket.
Published originally in 1975, The Limits of Liberty made James Buchanan’s name more widely known than ever before among political philosophers and theorists and established Buchanan, along with John Rawls and Robert Nozick, as one of the three new contractarians, standing on the shoulders of Hobbes, Locke, and Kant. "It is mainly concerned with two topics. One is an attempt to construct a new contractarian theory of the state, and the other deals with its legitimate limits. The latter is a matter of great practical importance and is of no small significance from the standpoint of political philosophy" (Scott Gordon, Journal of Political Economy).
