| Summary |
"Adhesiones á la Venta de los Ferro-carriles de la Provincia" by Manuel B. Gonnet is a political discourse written in the late 19th century. The work discusses the proposal to transfer the provincial railways from state to private ownership, emphasizing the principles of economic liberty and efficiency in railway management. The text reflects an ongoing debate between governmental control and private enterprise in the context of Argentine politics. At the start of the discourse, the author addresses the legislative assembly, outlining the arguments for privatizing the railways and countering opposition claims that public sentiment favors state ownership. Gonnet argues that the government's management has been inefficient, stifling progress and that privatization would enhance service and economic returns. He draws on international examples to advocate for a minimal role of government in industrial matters, asserting that the interests of society flourish under a system where individual initiative is unencumbered by state intervention, thus positioning his proposal as a move towards increased economic freedom and progress for the province.
