Call for papers: The Fate of Anglo-American Capitalism

Is there a future for the robust sort of capitalism favoured by Adam Smith or have we reached a limit to Anglo-American capitalism as the engine of human betterment? Over the last few decades scholars from many points of view have found the basis for a uniquely defensible position in Smith's work. It is therefore appropriate that the Adam Smith Review proposes a symposium devoted to the theme: "Is Anglo-American capitalism passing away?" We are particularly interested in contributions that view current economic events through a lens informed by Smith's teaching on institutions, money and economic growth. Please send proposals and suggestions for contributions to Sandra J. Peart, Dean, Jepson School of Leadership Studies (speart@richmond.edu) by November 1, 2009; full papers to be submitted for refereeing by January 15, 2010.

Routledge have now brought out a paperback version of ASR1. Visit their website.
Later volumes of ASR will also be available in paperback in due course.
