Overview of List’s Biography and Economic Theory

Eugen Wendler ()

Chapter Chapter 1 in Friedrich List’s Exile in the United States, 2016, pp 1-9 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract List had a very eventful biography. Born in Württemberg, he was a political opponent of the king and his government and was therefore obliged to leave his homeland and to emigrate to US in order to escape political persecution. Between 1825 and 1832, he lived and worked in Pennsylvania, becoming a US citizen in 1830. After Friedrich Wilhelm Steuben in the second half of the 18th century, List was to become the second famous German emigrant to US in the first half of the 19th century.
