   ch. 42

   Directly attributed to Bagehot's works as an illustrative statement, though the specific title is not given.

   A statement somewhere to be found in Bagehot’s works, that every treatise on political economy which he read in his youth began with the supposition that two men were cast on an uninhabited island, means, in reality, that economical doctrines were then inferences drawn from the way in which the supposed “economical man” would act, if he and others were left each of them free to pursue his own interest.

2. The Rights of War and Peace Hugo Grotius 1 endorsed 1 citation

   general preface

   The passage explicitly endorses Bagehot's work despite noting its unwelcome conclusions.

   When Bagehot issued his work on the English Constitution, it was hailed by the critics as the most wonderful and philosophical dissertation on the subject in any language or from any pen.
