Issues for discussion on 2.seminar (Adam Smith's View of Man) A) Reconstruct, please, argumentation, which is sumerized in this frgment: “It will be observed that Adam Smith's account of the development of our moral sentiments is essentially self-centered. We care for others because, (i) by a sympathetic response, we feel as they feel, (ii) because we enjoy the sharing of sympathy, and because (iii) we wish to appear admirable in our own eyes; (iv) and-we conform to the rules of conduct accepted in society largely because we wish to be admired by others. Versus The impact of these factors is weakened by the fact that the forces generating feelings of benevolence have to overcome those arising from self-interest, more narrowly conceived, with our perception of the outcomes distorted by self-deceit.” B) Is there the discussed Smith works based on the “doctrine of a harmonious order of nature, under divine guidance” or something else, whato is it according to Coase? C) Why Coase defend the consistency of Smith’s thought on human nature in The Theory of Moral Sentiments and those expressed in the Wealth of Nations, and how? D) How Cosed fulfIiled his declared purpose of the paper: “the inclusion of other motives in his analysis does not weaken but rather strengthens his argument for the use of the market and the limitation of governmental action in economic affairs.”? Offer for visual support of discussion: If you send me your short prepared issues to disussion with your notes or separeted since the 20.00 on Sunday, I can prapare the summary, send it to server and display it by the help of dataprojector. TAKE OUR SEMINAR WITH SYMPATHY, DON’T BE AFRAID OF IT! Podnět Magdy Lazanské: Vazeny pane docente, pod dojmem z dnesniho seminare jsem se rozhodla Vam napsat jeden navrh. Minuly semestr jsem navstevovala kurs doktorky Sanderove, jehoz soucasti byly rovnez seminare nad cizojazycnymi texty. Na rozdil od naseho seminare, kde je situace jeste ztizena anglickym jazykem, se vzdy rozproudila diskuse. Mam pocit, ze toto spocivalo zejmena v jedne veci. Pred cetbou clanku nam vzdy PhDr. Sanderova rekla, na co se mame zamerit. Proto se domnivam, ze by nasim seminarum velmi pomohlo, kdyby jste pred cetbou clanku vzdy vyzdvihl hlavni body, na ktere se mame zamerit a ke kterym si mame utvorit vlastni nazor, protoze mam pocit, ze clanky samy o sobe nejsou nejjednodussi a diskutovat je v globalu je o to obtiznejsi. Je to ciste muj navrh na zlepseni kvality seminaru. Nechavam samozrejme na Vasem uvazeni, zda je podnetny ci nikoliv. Jeste pripojuji omluvu, ze pristiho seminare se nebudu moci zucastnit. Jsem na 16:30h. objednana k lekari a tuto schuzku bych velmi problematicky presouvala. Uz jsem se Vam v patek zminovala, ze i na seminar PSA se dostavim s mirnym zpozdenim. Dekuji za pochopeni Magda Lazanska
