a very violent attack

Gavin Kennedy

Chapter 11 in Adam Smith, 2008, pp 187-209 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In 1780, Smith described his criticism of mercantile political economy as a ‘very violent attack … upon the whole commercial system of Great Britain’ (Corr251). Four years later he stepped up his attack by adding to the third edition (1784), an equally robust broadside (WN442-62; Corr266).
