The wealth of nations: books i-iii

Œuvre monumentale, La richesse des nations est par excellence le texte fondateur de l’économie politique. Rendant caduques les théories mercantilistes de son temps, Adam Smith y développe la fameuse théorie de la «main invisible», selon laquelle le libre jeu du marché et des intérêts individuels suffit à faire valoir l’intérêt général, sans aucune intervention étatique. Père du libéralisme économique, auteur d’analyses pionnières sur les concepts de valeur et de croissance, Adam Smith demeure aujourd’hui une référence incontournable, bien que loin d’être incontestée…

Adam Smith (1723-1790) gilt als Begründer der modernen Ökonomie. Wie kaum ein zweiter Denker hat der schottische Aufklärer die Entwicklung des Kapitalismus exakt beschrieben und auch entscheidend durch seine Theorien beeinflusst.

Schon zu Lebzeiten wurde sein hier vorliegendes Hauptwerk "Der Wohlstand der Nationen" (1776) zu einem großen Überraschungserfolg - sowohl in Fachkreisen als auch beim interessierten Publikum. Das Werk ist zwar ausladend und auf den ersten Blick etwas verzweigt, doch Smith überzeugt mit seinen klaren Formulierungen und vielen praktischen Beispielen, die in ihrem Kern auch heute kaum etwas von ihrer Gültigkeit verloren haben.

Von Marx bis heute erntet Smith vor allem für seine zentrale These Kritik: Die "unsichtbare Hand" der freien Märkte bringe eine freie Welt hervor, und den Wohlstand für alle. Doch ganz gleich, ob man die Thesen Smith' teilt: Wer moderne Staaten und die Märkte des Kapitalismus verstehen will, kommt um diesen Klassiker nicht herum. Selbst zeitgenössische Wirtschaftsexperten berufen sich immer wieder auf Adam Smith - sowohl linke und kapitalismuskritische Denker als auch liberalkonservative Denker sehen in Adam Smith quasi den Stein von Rosette, um die kniffligen Chiffren der Finanzkrisen und Weltprobleme zu deuten. 

Das vorliegende Buch wurde sorgfältig editiert und enthält Adam Smiths "Der Wohlstand der Nationen" im ungekürzten Original-Wortlaut der deutschen Übersetzung.

Der Wohlstand der Nationen - Vollständige deutsche Ausgabe

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.Criticizing 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.
