    About Lesson

    Laissez-faire


    Laissez-faire is a free-market, capitalist economic theory that rejects government interference. According to proponents of laissez-faire, government involvement in industry and markets hinders economic progress.


    The laissez-faire or free market philosophy, which English economists of the era popularized, was also supported by Spencer.
