Podcasts about Adam Smith

It's not hard to find critics of capitalism in the current moment but this has always been true: as long as we have had capitalism we have had critics of capitalism. What are the recurring themes of these critiques and how have they helped to shape the economics profession and capitalism itself?John Cassidy is an author at the New Yorker magazine and also the author of several books. His most recent two are Capitalism and Its Critics: A History: From the Industrial Revolution to AI and How Markets Fail: The Logic of Economic Calamities.Greg and John discuss the multifaceted and varied criticisms of capitalism throughout history. Over the course of the conversation, Greg recounts how John's books have investigated economic crises, the behavioral finance revolution, and the diverse critiques of capitalism from both the left and right. John brings up several examples of historical economic figures, from Adam Smith to Marx, and examines how crises have shaped economic thought and policy. Greg and John also make a point to highlight lesser-known critics and movements, underscoring their unsung importance of economic history.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:When both the left and the right turn against capitalism04:05: In 2016, when Trump was running for the Republican nomination and Bernie Sanders was running for the Democratic nomination, I thought, if you go back into history, it's a long time since we've had sort of major candidates running for office as critics of capitalism from the right and the left. Bernie, of course, has always been a critic of capitalism. He's independent socialist—I'd call him a social democrat, but we can get into what those terms mean if you want. But what's really new was Trump, running from the right with a critique. I mean, people have sort of forgotten now, but when he started out, he was criticizing the banks. He was criticizing big businesses for offshoring. He was running with a critique of capitalism from the right. So that got me thinking about maybe there's a book in how we got here. How can America, sort of world capital of capitalism and always very supportive of the system, come to this state of affairs where the two major candidates are running against it basically?A historical approach to capitalism12:21: Capitalism means anything involving large-scale production on the basis of privately owned assets. Private means of production. And if you adopt that broad definition, then mercantile capitalism, slavery, the plantation economies is a form of capitalism.Why economists often miss the real economy09:51: I realized in sort of maybe the late nineties, early 2000s, that if you want to speak to an economist about what was going on in the economy and what's happening in Washington, there really wasn't much point in calling up Harvard or MIT or Chicago or whatever, because the economics department would say, "Well, we don't really have anybody who covers that. You need to go to the business school, or you need to go to the business economists." So I think maybe there's been a backlash against that since the Great Financial Crisis. I know there's been a lot of efforts inside various universities, especially in Europe, to make the syllabuses more relevant, more sort of real-world based. But I still think at the higher levels of the subject, it's still extremely abstract.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Adam SmithDot-com BubbleGreat RecessionNeoliberalismKeynesian EconomicsMilton FriedmanKarl MarxRosa LuxemburgIndustrial RevolutionCapitalismLudditeWilliam ThompsonRobert OwenThomas CarlyleGlobalizationDependency TheoryAnna WheelerFlora TristanJoan RobinsonRobert SolowPaul SamuelsonJ.

At long last, Professor Kozlowski tackles that most divisive of all political thinkers: Karl Marx. Today we'll talk about the legacy of Marx (especially in the USA), and take our first steps to understanding Marxist views of capitalism through Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations and excerpts from Marx's own Capital.Additional readings include: Weber's The Protestant Work Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, Durkheim's The Division of Labor in Society, Sinclair's The Jungle, Dickens' The Old Curiosity Shop, and the Capitalist Utopian classic, Bellamy's Looking Backward: 2000-1887. And, since you asked, my video game recommendation this week is Offworld Trading Company - a game about peak Capitalism at its absolute scuzziest.If you or somebody you know would like to learn more about pinko scumbag Professor Kozlowski's other online projects, check out his website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

Is America really stronger if we tax people for sending money to their families overseas—or is it just another government cash grab that punishes hard work and generosity? That's the question we're tackling today, and trust me, the answers might surprise you. If you've ever wondered why some politicians push for a “remittance tax” and whether it actually helps—or hurts—Americans, this is the episode you can't afford to skip. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS Most people have never even heard of a remittance tax, yet it's one of those sneaky policies that sounds good on paper but collapses under real-world scrutiny. On today's show, we break it down in plain English. What is it? Who pays it? And why would Adam Smith—the father of modern economics—be rolling in his grave if he saw this policy come to life? Here's the reality: every dollar sent home by workers in America has already been taxed through income, sales, and property taxes. So why is the government coming back for a second bite of the apple? We walk through the numbers, the history, and the false promises behind this policy, showing how it raises little revenue while creating massive unintended consequences. But this isn't just about spreadsheets and percentages. It's about the lives of real people—citizens and non-citizens alike—who are working, paying their dues, and trying to help their families. Is it fair to punish generosity? Or are we falling into the same mercantilist trap that Adam Smith warned about centuries ago, treating money as something to hoard instead of something that fuels prosperity? By the end of this episode, you'll see the remittance tax debate in a whole new light. We'll connect the dots between history, economics, and the kitchen-table struggles of American families today. More importantly, we'll show how bad policies like this distract from real solutions that would actually make life better for hardworking Americans. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (CardioMiracle.com/TBNS) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

You've been there: You look up and realize you did it again—that thing you know you shouldn't do and said you'd never do again. But here you are. And for a moment, it felt good—until it didn't. The guilt, shame and regret kicked in so quick. And the fallout was far worse than you thought. Why do we all do this? Why do we continue to take the bait, even when we see the hook? Why do we fall for it again and again? Is it possible to resist it before it wrecks what matters most? Can you actually exit the cycle of repetition and regret?

I can't help but call Glenn "Dean Hubbard" since I met him as a student at Columbia Business School. That was 2005, making him one of the guests I've known the longest.I invited him to the podcast after seeing a talk he gave on the 300th birthday of Adam Smith. My recent learning more about Smith and other Enlightenment thinkers led me to find relevance between their thinking about how to live together without hurting each other and how we handle polluting and depleting today. I knew Glenn studied Smith for longer and in more depth than I have so I invited him to share about Smith.We started with his background, having worked with the White House. He then shared about Smith, in particular not seeing just his economics in Wealth of Nations, also his philosophy in Theory of Moral Sentiments.I shared some of the views I've been developing, though not comprehensively. He responded, politely and informatively, considering my inexperience expressing my ideas. He pushed back and educated.I couldn't help also sharing how much I'd learned at business school that was relevant to sustainability and I found little elsewhere, especially the social and emotional skills of leadership. I couldn't help building up my alma mater and the value of leadership in the task of changing culture.Glenn's home page at Columbia Business School Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textTransaction costs provide the key to understanding Adam Smith's complete philosophical system and how his two great works form an integrated whole. • Smith's two essential claims: humans desire to learn proper behavior and have an innate propensity to truck, barter, and exchange• Sympathy in Smith's view means synchronizing feelings with others—not perfect emotional matching but sufficient "concords" for social harmony• Three core principles guide proper behavior: justice (respecting others' person, property, and promises), beneficence (proper use of what's ours), and prudence (sacrificing present comfort for future well-being)• Self-command turns virtuous intentions into actual proper behavior• Four sources of moral judgment: motive, reaction, convention, and consequence• As societies scale up, we move from moral community (acting from love) to moral order (following rules from their utility)• Smith's "Chinese earthquake" example anticipates the modern trolley problem by revealing how moral agency affects our decisions• The "man of system" tries to impose ideal plans without regard for human nature or gradual change• Smith's egalitarian views positioned economics against slavery and hierarchical social structuresAlso posted, with resources for teaching and learning, at Adam Smith Works, thanks to Amy Willis. If you have questions or comments, or want to suggest a future topic, email the show at taitc.email@gmail.com !

Listen on Apple Podcasts Listen on Spotify Dr. Phillip W. Magness is an economic historian and the David J. Theroux Chair in Political Economy at the Independent Institute. Magness' research has appeared in multiple scholarly venues, including the Economic Journal, the Journal of Political Economy, the Journal of Business Ethics, the Southern Economic Journal, and Social Science Quarterly. He is the author of several books including, most recently, The 1619 Project Myth, which is the subject of this conversation. Our conversation was wide-ranging, including an overview of the original 1619 Project of the New York Times, conceived of and edited by Nikole Hannah-Jones; how it was a departure from similar historical projects of the Times before it; the strengths of the 1619 Project; the particular shortcomings of the Project's claims about the economic consequences of slavery; the attempt by the 1619 Project to tie slavery to capitalism; the actual anti-slavery origins of capitalist theory, starting with Adam Smith; the anti-capitalism ante-bellum arguments in the philosophical defense of slavery; the flawed scholarship of the “New History of Capitalism” school; the Project's distortion of the importance of cotton to the American economy before the Civil War, and the strange rehabilitation of “King Cotton” theory; the criticisms of leading historians of the colonial and revolutionary era of Hannah-Jones's claims about the importance of slavery to support for the American Revolution in the South; the status of the “20 and odd” enslaved Blacks who were brought to Jamestown in 1619; the varied influence of the Sommersett ruling in the colonies; Lord Dunmore's famous declaration after the American Revolution had begun; Hannah-Jones's dismissive response to academic criticisms of her claims; that Hannah-Jones was correct in her assessment of Abraham Lincoln's advocacy of “colonization” as a solution to emancipation; the New York Times's strange unwillingness to correct its 1619 Project errors transparently, as it would otherwise do in other contexts; the explicit political and policy agenda behind the 1619 Project; the slow walking-back of some of the Project's most controversial claims via ghost-editing; the insertion of The 1619 Project in public school curricula; and how to develop a school history curriculum that does give a balanced treatment of the history of slavery and Reconstruction.

Obviously we all have favorites—a favorite ice cream, sports team, or streaming show. And we LOVE talking about them. There's nothing better than finding out someone loves what you love (or hates what you hate). It's natural to like some things more than others. But what about people? Most of us have a certain people we look up to. And if we're honest, maybe there's a few we look down on. Maybe it's a specific person, or type of person, or entire group of people. Is that ok? Because—It's hard not to play favorites. And if you've ever been overlooked, ignored, stigmatized, or ostracized—you know it stings to realize you didn't make the cut. This was something Jesus talked a lot about. Why was He so passionate about it? What did he expect His followers to do about it?

Revelation 3:1–6 | Adam Smith

Adam Smith may be known as 'The Father of Economics,' but 400 years before him, Muslim scholar Ibn Khaldun was putting forward economic theories that are now taken for granted. IDEAS explores Ibn Khaldun's famous book, Muqaddimah and the lessons it has for us on the philosophy of history, economics, biology, sociology, and political theory. *This episode originally aired on June 24, 2021.

We all have moments where we learn something that shifts our perspective. Maybe it was an inconvenient truth, an inspiring story, or a profound observation. And now that you know it, you can't unknow it. Maybe you feel like you should do something about it. But what? Sure, you could get started, but how do you know you're doing the absolute best thing. You just need to know a bit more—just a few more searches, articles, and experts—and THEN you'll be ready to act. Besides, you've already done the most important thing—you raised awareness. But is just being aware getting you anywhere?

Revelation 2:18-29 | Adam Smith

Rep. Adam Smith (D-Seattle/Bellevue) joins Rantz in-studio to debate immigration, trans rights, antisemitism, and the economy.

After the 2008 financial crisis, and especially after the COVID pandemic of 2020, an increasing number of Americans are questioning the wisdom of unregulated markets and envisioning a more active role for the state. Scholars have coined a panoply of neologisms to capture this view of the political economy, including political scientist Kenneth Vogel's “marketcraft.” The term indicates that the state not only lays the foundation for markets through the protection of the rule of law and property rights, but it also shapes market economies through policy interventions and regulatory institutions like the Federal Trade Commission.Chris Hughes' new book, “Marketcrafters: The 100-Year Struggle to Shape the American Economy,” traces how governments led by both major parties have worked with the private sector since the country's founding to intentionally and strategically shape markets. The narrative reveals how Adam Smith's proverbial “invisible” hand has always been rather quite visible.Hughes is a co-founder of Facebook who left the company in 2007 to work for former President Barack Obama and is now completing his PhD at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School. Hughes joins Bethany and Luigi to discuss the government's historical role, both in success and failure, of marketcrafting to rebalance economic power and create fairer and more efficient markets. Their journey takes us from the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913 in response to a series of banking failures to recent mass investment in the semiconductor industry. Together, they discuss how to stop marketcrafting from becoming a victim of the political process, how it is operationalized differently in times of normalcy versus times of crisis, and how it must navigate the limits of individual and institutional power. Finally, they also discuss whether it is truly possible to craft markets in advance or only to correct market flaws after a crisis, with Hughes' own prior stomping grounds at Facebook as their case study.Read an excerpt of the book on ProMarket here.

In this episode, Phil Treadwell and Adam Smith dive into how less competition in today's market actually creates more opportunity for those willing to show up consistently. They talk about getting back to basics—having real conversations, picking up the phone, and building authentic relationships. Adam shares that true success isn't about perfect scripts or aggressive selling, but about listening, asking better questions, and simplifying your message to connect on a deeper level. The conversation is a powerful reminder that mindset, consistency, and genuine engagement are what truly set top professionals apart. Adam Smith is the President and founder of The Colorado Real Estate Finance Group, Inc., established in 2005, and owner of Just The Tips Coaching. He has originated billions in mortgage and finance deals, helping thousands of clients and coaching sales professionals on lead generation, client retention, and zero-cost marketing. Adam is the author of best-selling sales books, hosts a weekly podcast, and frequently speaks for major real estate and mortgage organizations nationwide. He has been recognized as one of the most connected and influential mortgage professionals in the country multiple times and holds several industry awards. Beyond his business, Adam is actively involved in community service, including leadership roles in charitable organizations and emergency response teams in Colorado. 01:30 Less Competition, More Opportunity 06:25 Is it Back to Basics? 10:20 Have the Conversation 13:15 Engagement Doesn't Mean Selling 18:15 The Lost Art of Phone Calls 23:00 Let Them Talk 25:40 Craft the Questions 31:50 Don't Create Problems 36:45 Find the Bite-Sized Piece 40:00 You're Not the Only One Connect with Adam: Website | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | YouTube BE IN THE ROOM WHERE GROWTH HAPPENS: M1A Mastermind Group If you are enjoying the MME podcast, please take a second and LEAVE US A REVIEW.

What is capitalism, really? Drawing on Adam Smith, Douglass North, and his own experience as a teacher and economist, economist Michael Munger of Duke University discusses three stages of economic development with EconTalk's Russ Roberts: voluntary exchange, markets, and capitalism. Along the way, the conversation explores the moral and institutional foundations that make impersonal exchange possible, the transformative power of the division of labor, and how capitalism uniquely enables "time travel" through liquidity and equity finance. The conversation closes with a discussion of human needs beyond material well-being.
