Description

“Towards the 250th anniversary of The Wealth of Nations

YSI Pre International Adam Smith Society Conference Workshop in Lecce, March 2025

 

Pre-conference workshop, 27 March 2025

Lecce, Italy

 

This pre-conference workshop offers young and early career scholars working on Adam Smith a chance to discuss their work in detail with peers in a friendly and supportive context, and to get feedback from world-leading Smith scholars.

Introduction

The YSI History of Economic Thought working group is organizing a one-day pre-conference workshop on 27 March 2025 ahead of the International Adam Smith Society (IASS) annual conference in Lecce, Italy (28-30 March 2025).  This is an excellent opportunity for ten young scholars working on Smith to be able to discuss their work in detail with peers and senior Smith scholars.

2026 marks the 250th anniversary of Adam Smith’s magnum opus, the Wealth of Nations. Seeking to build on the momentum of Smith’s 2023 tercentenary, this major anniversary invites scholars to revisit his groundbreaking work of political economy.  A special issue of the Adam Smith Review will mark this anniversary and scholars presenting at this workshop and the subsequent conference will be invited to submit their papers for publication. In addition, up to three workshop participants will be invited to the University of Chicago in Paris to complete their papers following the conference. They will benefit from Faculty support and a workspace, providing the optimal conditions to prepare
