From Propriety to Property, or is it the Other Way Round?

Author

Listed:
  • Paolo Ramazzotti

Abstract

If we acknowledge that Adam Smith's two major works are related, we will be better equipped to appreciate the features of the economy we live in. The shift from a close-knit community to a more extensive range of economic relations, however, involves qualitative changes that question Vernon Smith's linear causation from propriety to property and human betterment.
