亚当·斯密与弗里德曼的比较研究

只有把《国富论》与《道德情操论》结合,才能完整准确地理解亚当·斯密的自由市场经济学说.亚当·斯密主张经济人要有道德自律,努力使公平与市场经济结合,承认政府干预的必要性.弗里德曼号称20世纪的亚当·斯密,但他提倡的完全自由放任、个人自由和私利至上、否定政府干预的市场原教旨主义思想,却误读和曲解了亚当·斯密学说.

A Comparative Study of Adam Smith and Milton Friedman

Only through a thorough study of The Wealth of Nations and The Theory of Moral Sentiments could we have a correct understanding of Adam Smith’s theory of free market economy.Adam Smith advocated that economic man should have moral discipline,try to integrate justice with market economy and accept the necessary interference of the government.Milton Friedman,sometimes called an Adam Smith of the 20th century,advocated complete economic and personal freedom as well as personal interests and denied the necessary interference of the government like a fundamentalist,whose theory is a misunderstanding of Adam Smith’s theory.
