Maria Pia Paganelli (Trinity University) discusses the founder of free-market economics in the run-up to the 300th anniversary of his birth in June of 1723.
Why read the Wealth of Nations today? Its examples are dated. Its policies are irrelevant. Its economic theories are full of mistakes. Even its political ideology is ambiguous. Our circumstances and institutions are different. So, why bother reading this old book?
Co-Editor of the Oxford Handbook of Adam Smith and President of the International Adam Smith Society, Maria Paganelli tackles these questions in the PEP's first public event of the new year.
Sept. 30 at 4:30 in Rocky 3.
The event is free and open to the public, and is sponsored by the Political Economy Project.
