Political Economy as Moral Philosophy: Dugald Stewart of Edinburgh

Author

  • Rashid, Salim

Abstract

Dugald Stewart was a professor of Moral Philosophy at Edinburgh who lectured on political economy between 1798 and 1808. These influential lectures tried to turn political economy away from a study of wealth towards wider social concern. While supportive of f ree trade, Stewart was also highly critical of Adam Smith's analysis of the measure of value, of the division of labor, and of Smith's rep resentation of the Physiocrats.
