Essays on Population

The papers reprinted in this volume and in volume 7 represent a range of shorter writing forms used by Malthus: pamphlets rushed out to join a debate of the moment, anonymous review articles (published principally in the Whig Edinburgh Review until the break in 1815 over Malthus’s views on the corn laws), and more considered short works published separately or as part of a larger collection. The occasional pieces have been divided between writings on political economy, collected in volume 7, and those on population, the poor laws and the East India College, which appear in this volume.
