Leature with Dr. Samuel Fleischacker, PhD
10:10am
at English Building, 102
Lecture 1: “Learning from Adam Smith Today”
Time: 10:10 am - 11:00 am
Location: ENG Building, 102

Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations was published 250 years ago (exactly: in March, 1776) — why suppose it is still relevant? There are answers to that question that take Smith to anticipate left- or right-wing policies in the modern day. I shall instead talk about aspects of Smith that are useful for thinking about policy regardless of our particular political perspectives.

Lecture 2: “What Was So Great about 18th-Century Scotland?”
Time: 11:15 am - 1 2:05 pm
Location: Convocation Center, 2016

It’s widely agreed that the center for philosophy in the United Kingdom, during the Enlightenment, was Scotland rather than England. This lecture will explain why, focusing on the work of Frances Hutcheson, David Hume and Adam Smith, and on the importance of sociability, and of emotion, in their work.

Film Screening - The Real Adam Smith: Part 2 – Ideas That Changed the World
11:15am
at Convocation Center, 2016
In Part 2, “Ideas That Changed the World,” Norberg shifts the focus to Smith’s impact on today’s global economy. This episode illustrates how principles of free trade and economic freedom that Smith championed in The Wealth of Nations have shaped modern prosperity—spanning breakthroughs in China’s economic liberalization to Hong Kong’s rise under Sir John Cowperthwaite.

These two 56-minute episodes together trace Smith’s development from moral philosopher to the “father of modern economics,” showing how his insights into morality and trade continue to underpin today’s interconnected global markets.
