Adam Smith, Paperback / softback Book

Adam Smith Paperback / softback

Part of the Major Conservative and Libertarian Thinkers series

Paperback / softback

Description

The Scottish philosopher Adam Smith (1723-1790) was as a pioneer of political economy.

In fact, his economic thought became the foundation of classical economics and his key work, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, is considered to be the first modern work in economics. For Smith, a free competition environment was the best way to foster economic development that would work in accordance with natural laws.

The framework he set up to explain the free market remains true to this day.
