Henry Charles Carey, 1793-1879.

Portrait of Henry Carey

A proponent of optimistic, domestic laissez-faire in the style of the Manchester School.  The American economist  Henry C. Carey was nonetheless a doctrinaire protectionist as far as foreign trade are concerned. Although his ideas were much disparaged for their vulgarity and inconsistency, they are perhaps more closely in line with the land theories of value of Cantillon and the Physiocrats.
