Details

Based on the interest in Adam Smith's The Theory of Moral Sentiments, we will continue with some additional Adam Smith, this time fromThe Wealth of Nations. We will look at the start of his argument about the formation of political economy and try to draw connections back to the moral framework he developed in The Theory of Moral Sentiments.

If time allows, please read Book I of The Wealth of Nations (~220 pages).
If time is short, please focus on Book I, Chapters 1-7 (~60 pages).
