The British can be said to be the advanced capitalist countries in Europe.

He attacked one type of government intervention after another.,8,严复翻译成原富,国富论在亚当斯密生前曾出版过5个版本(1776, 1778, 1784, 1786, 1789)1897年严复开始翻译原富, 1902年上海南洋公学译书院出版。多为意译,甚至脱离原文,就书中某一观点阐述自己的观点。,9,郭大力 王亚南1936年出版国富论,10,本书的地位,有人认为,如果没有国富论,就没有马克思的资本论。有人认为,本书是现代政治经济学研究的起点,被誉为西方经济学的“圣经” 。它标志着经济学作为一门独立学科的诞生。200多年来,经济学家所做的工作只是为亚当斯密的理论打补丁、做完善。,The contribution,Marxs judgment of the wealth of nations by Adam Smith: with Adam Smith, political economy has grown into a whole, it is included in the scope of a certain extent, has been formed. for the first time, the basic problem of political economics has been put forward by him ;,国富论论述的问题,the role of self-interest, the division of labor,the function of markets, the international implications of a laissez-faire economy.,13,his contribution,The wealth of nations is a great work, Adam Smith put the self-interest of heart did a harmonious unity with the male, the heart, let us know the self-interest and public interest are not contradictory to each other, but complement each other, is conducive to the progress and development of the community as a whole.,重要观点和主张,4.重视“看不见的手”对经济的调节作用,5.商品的价格,由市场来决定,1.社会进步是建立在个人的生存及发展的基础上的,2.私人应当有权拥有及支配自己的财富,3.使追求利润的过程中同时促进社会的进步,Book One,Of the Causes of Improvements in the Productive Powers of Labour, and of the Order according to which its Produce is Naturally Distributed among the Different Ranks of the People论劳动生产力改进的原因,以及劳动产品自然地分配给各阶级人们的顺序,16,Book Two,Of the Nature, Accumulation, and Employment of Stock 论财富的性质、蓄积和用途,17,Book Three,Of the different Progress of opulence in different Nations 论不同国家中财富的不同发展,18,Book Four,Of Systems of Political Economy论政治经济学的体系,19,Book Five,Of the Revenue of the Sovereign or Commonwealth 论君主或英联邦国家的收入,20,有待研究的若干问题,有无“亚当斯密问题”?何谓“看不见的手”?如何处理政府与市场的关系?,有无“亚当斯密问题”?,19世纪德国人提出了“斯密问题”(das Adam Smith Problem):在道德情操论中提出的同情原理与他在国富论中提出的利己心原理相互矛盾。斯密在道德情操论中把人的行为归结于同情,而在国富论中却把人的行为归结于自私。能够解决经济短缺问题(economic scarcity)的是个人利益和效用,还是仁爱和同情?,22,道德情操论,“人,不管被认为是多么的自私,在他人性中显然还有一些原理,促使他关心他人的命运,使他人的幸福成为他的幸福必备的条件,尽管除了看到他人幸福他自己也觉得快乐之外,他从他人的幸福中得不到任何其他好处。”,23,国富论,“我们决不能指望从屠夫、酿酒师或面包师的仁慈中获得我们的晚餐。我们只能从使他们关心他自己的利益中来获得我们的晚餐。我们要向他们讲述的不是不是他们的人道博爱,而是他们的私利。绝不要向他们谈论我们自己的需要,而是要谈论他们的利益。只有乞丐才会把自己的生活主要地寄托在同胞的施舍上。”,“在追求他个人利益时,他时常比他真实地有意促进社会利益还更加有效地促进了社会的利益。我从来没有听说过那些伪装为了公共利益而经商的人做了多少好事。诚然,那种装模作样,在商人中并不普遍存在,所以无须说什么去劝阻他们。”,何谓“看不见的手”?,亚当斯密所说的invisible hand的原意是指什么?在Theory of Moral Sentiments一书的Part IV第一章中使用了invisible hand一词:“in spite of their natural selfishness and rapacity, though they mean only their own conveniency, though the sole end which they propose from the labours of all the thousands whom they employ, ,26,“尽管他们(富人)的天性是自私的和贪婪的,虽然他们只图自己方便,虽然他们雇佣千百万人来为自己劳动的唯一目的是满足自己无聊而又贪得无厌的欲望,但是他们还是同穷人一样分享他们所做的一切改良的成果。一只看不见的手引导他们对生活必需品作出几乎同土地在平均分配给全体居民的情况下所能作出的一样的分配。从而不知不觉地增进了社会利益,”,如何认识政府与市场的关系?,国富论要回答的问题就是如何促进国家财富的增长。实现增长的途径就是laisser faire,即发挥“看不见的手”的作用。,28,invisible hands,Social nature has an invisible hand to lead the people to make the best choice for society and the individual and no government and individuals can replace the role of this invisible hand, if you want to replace the role of this invisible hand, will cause confusion. What is the invisible hand? Smith although there is no direct expression, but the book has told us, that the invisible hand is the soul of the human heart.,亚当斯密与中国,国富论有60处提到“China”,8处提到Chinese.“China has been long one of the richest, that is, one of the most fertile, best cultivated, most industrious, and most populous countries in world. It seems, however, to have been long stationary.”,亚当斯密:如果一个社会的经济发展成果不能真正分流到大众手中,那么它在道义上将是不得人心的,而且是有风险的,因为它注定要威胁社会稳定。温家宝:道德缺失是导致这次金融危机的一个深层次原因。一些人见利忘义,损害公众利益,丧失了道德底线。我们应该倡导:企业要承担社会责任,企业家身上要流淌着道德的血液。,31,
