Abstract The central core of the work of Adam Smith is identified here, with particular reference to his own words. His argumentation is full of surprises and paradoxes, and it offers key insights for sociology, especially as it allows us to better understand key features of the modern world.
期刊介绍:
Consolidating its reputation for historical and comparative sociology of the highest order, European Journal of Sociology publishes articles of interdisciplinary scope which represent some of the best writing in the social sciences today. The journal has a strongly international perspective, with a special interest devoted to the transition from totalitarism to democracy, to the multiple citizenship and publishes a third issue every year exclusively devoted to state-of-the-art surveys, the elucidation of central concepts and review essays which explore key topics with reference to the most relevant recent publications. The journal receives contributions from young scholars as well as highly respected names such as Robert N. Bellah, Jon Elster and Lord Runciman.
