Abstract
Adam Smith, twórca ekonomii politycznej i znany liberał gospodarczy często kojarzony jest z koncepcją państwa nocnego stróża. Uważna analiza Bogactwa Narodów prowadzi jednak do wniosków, że to określenie nie opisuje jego poglądów zbyt trafnie. Oprócz obronności i wymiaru sprawiedliwości, szkocki filozof widział także szereg innych obszarów, w których powinno działać państwo. Według autora Bogactwa narodów państwowa interwencja jest konieczna m. in. w takich kwestiach, jak budowa dróg i kanałów, ochrona handlu, bankowość i ubezpieczenia, zaopatrzenie w wodę, edukacja czy nawet ochrona zdrowia.
Adam Smith, the founder of classical economics and well-known liberal thinker is often associated with the concept of a night watchman state. A careful analysis of Wealth of Nations leads to the conclusion that this term does not describe his views accurately. Apart from the defense and justice, the Scottish philosopher saw a number of other areas where the state should be active. According to the author of The Wealth of Nations, state intervention is necessary, inter alia, on issues such as the construction of roads and canals, protection of trade, banking and insurance, water supply, education and even health care.
