Ricardo, David
Ricardo, David (1772–1823) British political economist who, with Adam SMITH, founded British classical economics. In 1819–23 he was an MP, supporting
FREE TRADE, a return to the gold standard, and the repeal of the
CORN LAWS. He is best remembered for his
Principles of Political Economy and Taxation (1817), arguing that the value of a commodity is related to amount of labour required to make it — a premise later adopted by Karl
MARX. He also formulated the law of comparative advantage in international trade.
