In this volume, scholars in economics, philosophy, and political science take up questions that range throughout Smith's work, seeking to find connections between his moral theory and political economy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume, based on the 2013 A. V. Elliot Conference on Great Books and Ideas at Mercer University, represents a great diversity of disciplinary perspectives. Its authors take up a wide range of concerns that exist in the intersection of Smith's political and moral theory. It also includes several articles that attempt to compare his work to thinkers that preceded and followed him, coming from as far back in the tradition as the Italian Renaissance, and moving forward in history to claim Smith's relevance for contemporary research in experimental economics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mercer University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47019145003248,"sku":"9780881465297","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780881465297_p0.jpg?v=1763850868","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780881465297","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
