For several years now, Adam Smith's Theory of Moral Sentiments
(1759) has been attracting increasing attention. Smith is concerned
not only with the question of rational grounds for moral action,
but also and above all with moral feelings and a corresponding
moral education. Thus his theory offers a promising alternative to
the theories of David Hume and Immanuel Kant, which have often been
cited in past debates. Working from the moral philosophy of Adam
Smith, who is known principally as a political economist, it is
possible to develop a many-facetted contribution to present-day
debates (liberalism, business ethics). This volume, with papers by
renowned moral philosophers and Adam Smith scholars, documents the
various perspectives from which Adam Smith's moral philosophy is of
particular interest today.
