亞當·斯密(Adam Smith, 1723-1790)是經濟學的主要創立者。他於1723年齣生在蘇格蘭的剋科底,青年時就讀於牛津大學。1751年到1764年在格斯哥大學擔任哲學教授。在此期間發錶瞭他的第一部著作《道德情操論》,確立瞭他在知識界的威望。但是他的不朽名聲主要在於他在1776年發錶的偉大著作《國傢財富的性質和原因的研究》。該書一舉成功,使他在餘生中享受著榮譽和愛戴。1790年,亞當·斯密在剋科底去逝。他一生未娶,沒有子女。
First published in 1776, the year in which the American Revolution officially began, Smith's "Wealth of Nations" sparked a revolution of its own. In it Smith analyzes the major elements of political economy, from market pricing and the division of labor to monetary, tax, trade, and other government policies that affect economic behavior. Throughout he offers seminal arguments for free trade, free markets, and limited government. Criticising mercantilists who sought to use the state to increase their nations' supply of precious metals, Smith points out that a nation's wealth should be measured by the well-being of its people.Prosperity in turn requires voluntary exchange of goods in a peaceful, well-ordered market. How to establish and maintain such markets? For Smith the answer lay in man's social instincts, which government may encourage by upholding social standards of decency, honesty, and virtue, but which government undermines when it unduly interferes with the intrinsically private functions of production and exchange. Social and economic order arise from the natural desires to better one's (and one's family's) lot and to gain the praise and avoid the censure of one's neighbors and business associates. Individuals behave decently and honestly because it gives them a clear conscience as well as the good reputation necessary for public approbation and sustained, profitable business relations.
翻译真心差,我没开玩笑 作为经济类本科生,实在没办法简单易懂地阅读这译本啊 比如这句“文明国家的殖民地土地荒芜、人口稀少”(page330 卷四 论殖民地)我看得云里雾里,因为文明国家的殖民地怎么会土地荒芜、人口稀少,印度作为大英帝国的生命线从来没听人说过“土地荒芜...
評分郭大力、王亚南翻译,北极星的电子书。 看得很累。亚当斯密的文字、逻辑极为清晰,累的原因是内容太多了。这本书的很多概念、观点到现在也在主流经济学中占据了显要的位置。所以人的头脑好像并没有随着时间而进化得更聪明,天才也就那些,倒是人们的工具都越来越多,越来...
評分 評分斯密论分工 狄更斯在《双城记》的开头这样描述十九世纪的英国“这是最好的时代,这是最坏的时代。”而事实上十九世纪是一个资本的时代。源于英国的工业革命席卷了全球,带来第一波世界性的产业革命,财富与生产力双双向前,资本主义从此取得了历史的胜利。正当其时,脱胎于...
Social and economic order arise from the nature desires to better one's lot and to gain the praise.
评分My friend thinks this book is lovely, I said we cannot be friends anymore. (I think Adam Smith cares more of people without any gifts, and tries to help them with cooperation.)
评分主要讀瞭Book I,分工的社會根源、影響因素以及貨幣的興起、商品的真實價格(自然價格)與名義價格,以及兩者的關係。斯密重點分析瞭構成價格的基礎(勞動),以及價格的構成因素(工資、租金、貿易利潤);從分工角度理解,斯密這裏主要處理分工的經濟維度,是亞裏士多德尼馬學Book V經濟觀點的重述和充實。
评分My friend thinks this book is lovely, I said we cannot be friends anymore. (I think Adam Smith cares more of people without any gifts, and tries to help them with cooperation.)
评分最早提齣瞭 division of labor,分析瞭分工、市場以及政治經濟學等等,很理性,有識有史。
