Adam Smith

Asked to name history’s great economists, most people could manage to come up with Adam Smith and John Maynard Keynes. Although the economy has expanded out of all recognition since they were alive, both are still frequently employed in political debate.
Keynes was the big State spender whose ideas Gordon Brown used to justify his public spending splurge to get the economy going after the banking crisis of 2008. Keynes would, however, have been appalled at Brown’s failure to pay off government debt in the good years.
Smith was the free-marketeer; the small-government man whose words could be slipped unnoticed into a Conservative think-tank: governments ‘are themselves always, and without any exception, the greatest spendthrifts in the society. Let them look well after their own expense, and they may safely trust private people with theirs. If their own extravagance does not ruin the State, that of their subjects never will.’ By coincidence, Smith was a man of Kirkcaldy, the small town on the northern shore of the Firth of Forth where Gordon Brown grew up. Born there in 1723, the son of a customs officer, Smith did not in his lifetime go by the term ‘economist’. There was no such academic discipline in his day in Britain, although there was a school of economistes in Paris.
Smith was a moral philosopher who came to the study of wealth and money via the works of his mentor, David Hume
