Adam Smith’s masterpiece, first published in 1776, is the foundation of modern economic thought and remains the single most important account of the rise of, and the principles behind, modern capitalism. Written in clear and incisive prose, The Wealth of Nations articulates the concepts indispensable to an understanding of contemporary society; and Robert Reich’s Introduction both clarifies Smith’s analyses and illuminates his overall relevance to the world in which we live. As Reich writes, “Smith’s mind ranged over issues as fresh and topical today as they were in the late eighteenth century—jobs, wages, politics, government, trade, education, business, and ethics.”
Adam Smith was born in a small village in Kirkcaldy, Scotland in 1723. He entered the University of Glasgow at age fourteen, and later attended Balliol College at Oxford. After lecturing for a period, he held several teaching positions at Glasgow University. His greatest achievement was writing The Wealth of Nations (1776), a five-book series that sought to expose the true causes of prosperity, and installed him as the father of contemporary economic thought. He died in Edinburgh on July 19, 1790.
亚当·斯密与原始积累 ——《国民财富的性质和原因的研究》读书报告 1、亚当·斯密笔下的资本积累:节俭的神话 作为被现代经济学和现代管理学追认为开山鼻祖的亚当·斯密,其著名著作《国富论》尤其是其中“看不见的手”的比喻,已经为人所熟知,并用来证明自由贸易和政...
评分大学时候,迷上了经济学,其实在高中就喜欢政治,历史。不过直到接触到经济学之后,才发现,原来社会竟然能够被分析的这样淋漓透彻。 大学期间,读了很多的经济学的著作,不过开始的时候都是读最近期的,可是近期的著作数学用的越来越高深,我虽然学的是工科,可是大学的时候...
评分 评分很佩服该书的两位译者!两位译者有一项独特的能力,他们写的每一个字你都能看懂,但是你就是不知道他这句话是什么意思。妈的!
评分翻译真心差,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...
一开始读得很痛苦,因为18世纪的英文和今天的略有不同,需要一段时间来适应,而且Smith的行文以现代学术论文标准来看略嫌繁冗,所以读到Money这一部分的时候几乎要崩溃了。。。但是越读就越佩服,此书不仅仅是西方经济学的开山之作,而且对于西方地方自治传统的形成、殖民史、宗教史、重商主义与重农主义的确切含义等,都有广泛而深入的涉猎。更重要的是,读完才会明白,此书不仅仅是自由主义经济学的源头,而且还是英国式社会主义——费边社会主义的重要起源之一。Smith绝非Mises那种只要经济自由不管底层人民死活的极端自由主义者,他对于经济自由的爱好,一直保持在合理的范围内。
