[PROLOGUE]
THE TRANSLATION
This translation of THE LAW was done by Dean Russell of
The Foundation staff. His objective was an accurate
rendering of Mr. Bastiat's words and ideas into twentieth
century, idiomatic English.
A nineteenth century translation of THE LAW, made in
1853 in England by an unidentified contemporary of Mr.
Bastiat, was of much value as a check against this
translation. In addition, Dean Russell had his work
reviewed by Bertrand de Jouvenel, the noted French
economist, historian, and author who is also thoroughly
familiar with the English language.
While Mr. de Jouvenel offered many valuable corrections
and suggestions, it should be clearly understood that Mr.
Russell bears full responsibility for the translation.
