JOHN RUSKIN’S SOCIAL AND POLITICAL THEORY IN HIS ECONOMIC WRITINGS

Summary/Abstract: Art, poetry and political economy were instruments that John Ruskin attempted to reshape the man of his time with. The appreciated Victorian writer, literary and art critic and political philosopher tried to apply to the artistic riches the general idea of economic riches such as: discovery, utilization, accumulation and distribution. According to Ruskin’s conception economists have as a task to state what things provide life and to decide how they can be acquired and distributed.
