Description

Explore the deep connection between human emotion and economic theory with Adam Smith and the Economy of the Passions. Part of the Routledge Studies in the History of Economics series, this book examines how the pursuit of wealth and self-interest works alongside wider social goals. Professor Jan Horst Keppler provides a fresh look at Adam Smith's work, focusing on how the desire for social recognition and sympathy drives economic behavior. The text explores how the need to see ourselves reflected in our peers serves as a way to moderate and transform human passions. By looking at the emotional structures that exist beneath market activity, this book offers a unique perspective on the foundations of economic thought. It is an essential read for students and researchers interested in the history of economic ideas and the psychological drivers behind market movements.
