Rousseau is seen as a critic of modernity; Smith as an apologist. However, Istvan Hont finds significant commonalities in their work, arguing that both were theorists of commercial society but from different perspectives.CommercePhilosophyVANC032774ECEconomicsPolitical aspectsVANC032775ECGBLondonVANL000015CambridgeVANL000024330.121HontIstvanVANV082818691060KapossyBélaVANV082819SonenscherMichaelVANV082820Harvard universityVANV108082650ITSOL20221202RICAhttp://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=1017342E-book – Accesso al full-text attraverso riconoscimento IP di Ateneo, proxy e/o ShibbolethBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI ECONOMIAIT-CE0106VAN03NVAN0107282BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI ECONOMIA03CONS e-book(1017342) 03BDE542 20170112 BuonoPolitics in commercial society1412648UNISOB02246nam 22005174a 450 991078294450332120230422043147.00-313-00244-4(CKB)1000000000004354(EBL)269085(OCoLC)55141453(SSID)ssj0000186082(PQKBManifestationID)11197175(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000186082(PQKBWorkID)10217293(PQKB)10726879(Au-PeEL)EBL269085(CaPaEBR)ebr10020831(MiAaPQ)EBC269085(EXLCZ)99100000000000435419991202d2000 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrJokers wild[electronic resource] legalized gambling in the twenty-first century /Thomas Barker and Marjie BritzWestport, Conn.
