Discussion: The Theory of Moral Sentiments

Author: Adam Smith

Description: Published in 1759, The Theory of Moral Sentiments explores human morality through empathy, social harmony, and self-interest. Adam Smith argues that human beings are inherently social and that moral judgments arise from our capacity to sympathize with others. This sentiment is central to understanding ethical behavior. Smith’s concept of the “impartial spectator” serves as a guide for assessing actions and decisions.
