The Institute of Analysis of Systems and Territories (IAST) in collaboration with Samuel Fleischacker, distinguished emeritus professor at the University of Illinois, Chicago, is organizing an unprecedented conference titled "Prejudices of the Imagination: What Adam Smith Added to the Enlightenment Project."


Scheduled for November 22 at the Toulouse School of Economics (TSE), this presentation will highlight often overlooked dimensions of Smith's revolutionary thinking. Fleischacker, renowned for his contributions in the field of moral and political philosophy and the author of "Adam Smith and Being Me Being You: Adam Smith and Empathy," is known for his versatile expertise and nuanced understanding of contemporary societal issues, ranging from critical analyses of the history of liberalism to profound reflections on the philosophy of religion.


This presentation is a flagship event of the "Smith Around the World" international conference series, a collaborative effort between the IAST and the University of Glasgow. Don't miss this unique opportunity to delve into Adam Smith's innovative ideas and engage in an enriching intellectual discussion.
