亚当·斯密与经济史学

Adam Smith and Economic History

亚当·斯密的《国富论》是西方经济学的奠基之作,也是经济史学的开创之作。亚当·斯密在《国富论》中提出的理论和方法都是经济史学赖以建立的基础。今天的经济史学界,虽然新观点、新方法、新材料、新问题不断涌现,但最基本的理论基础和话语体系仍然是亚当·斯密创立的。

Adam Smith's An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations is not only the foundational work of mod-ern economics but also the pioneering work of economic history.The theories and methods put forward by Adam Smith in this book are the foundation of economic history.In today's economic history field,although new viewpoints,methods,materials,and ques-tions are constantly emerging,the fundamental theoretical foundation and discourse system are still established by Adam Smith.
