Title

Roots of Economic Dichotomy: A Comparative Analysis of Adam Smith and Karl Marx by Eric Seiler

Subject

Economics

Description

One of the most commonly referenced dichotomies in the field of economics is that which pits capitalism against communism. The economists behind these ideologies, Adam Smith and Karl Marx, respectively, are generally seen as foils of each other, not having anything in common while having strictly opposing ideals. This paper aims to analyze the works of Smith and Marx in order to see just how strong of a dichotomy exists between the two while exploring the idea that there may have been some agreement between the two.
