section Summary
 
 
Richard Cobden was much involved in politics. In Great Britain, after Napoleonic wars, Corn Laws were passed. In Cobden’s opinion the policy implemented in these famous bills was very questionable. Indeed, Frédéric Bastiat’s close friend devoted his entire life to free trade and pacifism.
First of all I will focus on describing the British society and the economic context. Then I will present Richard Cobden and the Anti-Corn Laws League.
