| 內容簡介: |
It is in Books IV and V of The Wealth of Nations that Adam
Smith offers his considered response to the French Physiocrats,
perhaps the first great school of economic theorists, and assesses
the nature of the mercantile system, particularly the colonial
relationship with America, whose achievements could have been even
more spectacular if conditions of free trade and economic union had
existed. Even on the eve of the Declaration of Independence, Smith
famously predicted that America "will be one of the foremost
nations of the world." It is also here that he develops the case
for a limited state role in economic planning, notably to combat
market failure and induce efficiency in areas such as education,
public works, justice, and defense. His pioneering analysis still
provides many subtle and penetrating insights into one of today''s
most vital and controversial policy debates.
Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Andrew Skinner
