Adam Smith wrote in a Scotland where Calvinism, Continental natural
law theory, Stoic philosophy, and the Newtonian tradition of
scientific natural theology were key to the intellectual lives of
his contemporaries. But what impact did these ideas have on Smith's
system? What was Smith's understanding of nature, divine
providence, and theodicy? How was the new discourse of political
economy positioned in relation to moral philosophy and theology? In
this volume a team of distinguished contributors consider Smith's
work in relation to its Scottish Enlightenment religious
background, and offer stimulating theological interpretations of
his account of fallible human nature, his providential account of
markets, and his invisible hand metaphor. Adam Smith as Theologian
it is a pioneering study which will alter our view of Smith and
open up new lines of thinking about contemporary economics.
