La Richesse des nations
"L'Économie politique, considérée comme une branche des connaissances du législateur et de l'homme d'État, se propose deux objets distincts : le premier, de procurer au peuple un revenu ou une subsistance abondante, ou, pour mieux dire, de le mettre en état de se procurer lui-même ce revenu et cette subsistance abondante ; - le second, de fournir à l'État ou à la communauté un revenu suffisant pour le service public ; elle se propose d'enrichir à la fois le peuple et le souverain."Dans ce texte fondateur de l'économie politique moderne, Adam Smith analyse, à partir des exemples de l'Angleterre et des Pays-Bas, les origines de la prospérité d'un État. Élaborant une théorie sur la division du travail, la concurrence sur le marché ou encore l'idée d'un intérêt individuel convergeant vers l'intérêt commun, La Richesse des nations (1776) pose les bases du libéralisme économique.
