La Loi By Frederic Bastiat by Frédéric Bastiat
An eloquent defense of limited government and individual rights arguing that the proper purpose of law is to defend life, liberty, and property rather than to redistribute wealth or serve special interests; it warns that when law is used to legalize plunder, the distinctions between justice and injustice are erased, and it critiques collectivist and protectionist policies while promoting equality before the law, moral limits on state power, and the idea that social progress arises from voluntary cooperation rather than coercive legislation.
