Rotschild, Emma. 2012. Values, classical political economy, and the Portuguese empire. Values and Justice. Special Issue. Journal of Economic Methodology 19(2): 109-119.Abstract
The article explores early criticisms of Adam Smith, with particular reference to long-distance commerce, the Portuguese empire, and the writings of William Julius Mickle. The changing relationship between merchants and sovereigns, and between economic and political power, was of central importance, the article suggests, to disputes over Smith's ideas of self-interest.Terms of Use
