Adam Smith was no ordinary 18th century figure. Considered the “father of modern economics,” Smith was first and foremost a moral philosopher. In a new, two-part documentary, The Real Adam Smith: A Personal Exploration by Johan Norberg, the noted author, economic analyst, and Cato Institute Senior Fellow examines Smith’s rise to prominence with his 18th century ideas, and the impact of those economic and ethical ideas today.
