Question

Mark is an excellent cook. He does not have any formal training but learned to cook by following the recipes of several famous chefs and his mom. Every weekend, he invites friends over for dinner so he can try new dishes and get honest feedback from his friends. Mark wants to start his own restaurant someday because he thinks he would be successful and become wealthy. Which of Adam Smith’s ideas made Mark think of starting a restaurant?

Answer 1

Smith is most famous for his 1776 book, The Wealth of Nations. Smith's writings were studied by 20th-century philosophers, writers, and economists. Smith's ideas–the importance of free markets, assembly-line production methods, and gross domestic product (GDP)–formed the basis for theories of classical economics.

Smith believed that economic development was best fostered in an environment of free competition that operated in accordance with universal “natural laws.” Because Smith's was the most systematic and comprehensive study of economics up until that time, his economic thinking became the basis for classical economics
