Comparison of Economic Thoughts between "guanzi" and "the Wealth of Nations

About This Novel

In recent years, China's economy has developed rapidly. Its high-speed rails, highways, port facilities and overall manufacturing scale have left the United States, the world's largest economic power, behind. This has puzzled many Westerners, who are looking for reasons. In fact, the answer is very simple. "Guanzi" written by Guan Zhong and his followers during the Spring and Autumn Period in China more than 2,000 years ago already contains various economic thoughts in "The Wealth of Nations" written by the Western thinker Adam Smith. Although the economic thoughts in "Guanzi" are not as systematic and scientific as the economic thoughts in "The Wealth of Nations", it was written in China more than 2,000 years ago and originated in China's Spring and Autumn Period. Comparing the two books, people found that the two books have almost the same ideological outline. Adam Smith's "The Wealth of Nations" quickly moved Britain towards the first capitalist society. But "Guanzi" was formed in the early days of feudal society. After more than two thousand years of feudal society, when China entered the market economy, the commodity economic concept of "Guanzi" immediately erupted like a volcano. The ancient commodity economic culture of the Chinese nation fully demonstrated the creativity of the people. This is why Westerners and many Chinese themselves are puzzled by the rapid development of China's economy. If you read this book, it may help you and me find the answer.
