NEW COLLECTION OF PAPERS ON PHILOSOPHY OF ADAM SMITH JUST PUBLISHED

:

PROPRIETY AND PROSPERITY: new studies on the Philosophy of Adam Smith, edited by David F. Hardwick and Leslie Marsh, Forward by Vernon Smith, Palgrave Macmillan, 2014.

Included in the 14 chapters by the contributors is mine: Chapter 11: ‘The Invisible Hand Phenomenon in Economics’, pp. 198- 222, one of 4 chapters on the ‘invisible hand’.

Readers may not be surprised to note that my four colleagues writing on the invisible-hand take different approaches to the one I take on Lost Legacy. I may comment on their approaches on the Blog.

There is also chapter 14 by my friend and colleague, Craig Smith, Glasgow University: ‘Smith, Justice, and the Scope of the Political’.
