Sinopsis

Who is Adam Smith
 
An influential character during the Scottish Enlightenment, Adam Smith was a Scottish economist and philosopher who was a pioneer in the concept of political economy. He was also an important player throughout the time period. His two seminal publications, The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) and An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776), garnered him the title of "The Father of Economics" or "The Father of Capitalism" by a number of individuals. The latter, which is frequently shortened to "The Wealth of Nations," is widely regarded as his major achievement. It is also the first modern work that approaches economics as both an all-encompassing system and an academic field. Instead than attempting to explain the distribution of wealth and power in terms of God's will, Smith makes an appeal to natural, political, social, economic, legal, environmental, and technological variables, as well as the interactions that occur between these aspects. A number of different economic ideas were presented in this text, one of which being Smith's concept of absolute advantage.

    A bold, concise history of Western economic interventions in Africa, by the former director of the Centre of African Studies at the University of Cambridge 
     
    For centuries, Westerners have tried to "fix" African economies. From the abolition of slavery onward, missionaries, philanthropists, development economists, and NGOs have arrived on the continent, full of good intentions and bad ideas. Their experiments have invariably gone awry. 
     
    Historian Bronwen Everill argues that these interventions fail, and frequently cause harm, because they start from a misguided premise: that African economies just need to be more like the West. Ignoring Africa's own traditions of economic thought, Americans and Europeans assumed a set of universal economic laws that they thought could be applied anywhere. They enforced specifically Western ideas about growth, wealth, debt, unemployment, inflation, women's work, and more, and used Western metrics to find African countries wanting. 
     
    The West does not know better than African nations how an economy should be run. By laying bare the myths and realities of our tangled economic history, Africonomics moves from Western ignorance to African knowledge.
