2065438+June 2002 1 day, the business school of Glasgow University, which was established nearly 30 years ago, was officially renamed Adam Smith Business School. The new name is to commemorate Adam Smith, a great ethicist and political economist and alumnus of Glasgow University, for his outstanding contribution to the school and the whole economic field, so as to remember and spread his ideological legacy.

Adam Smith is considered as one of the most influential figures in the world. From 1723 to 1740, Adam Smith studied in his hometown of Scotland. During his stay at Glasgow University, Adam Smith completed Latin, Greek, Mathematics and Ethics. From 1740 to 1746, I went to Oxford College to study, but I didn't get a good education in Oxford. The only gain is reading a lot of books that Glasgow University lacks. 1750 years later, Adam Smith returned to Glasgow, where he not only served as a professor of logic and moral philosophy, but also took charge of school administration until 1764. During this period, his Theory of Moral Sentiments published in 1759 was highly praised by academic circles. Then I started writing The Wealth of Nations at 1768. 1773, The Wealth of Nations was basically completed, but Adam Smith spent more than three years polishing the book. 1776 was published in March, which caused extensive discussion among the public, affecting not only Britain, but also Europe and the United States. Therefore, the world respects Adam Smith as "the father of modern economics" and "the patron saint of free enterprise".
