The answer to our question seems to lie in the political and legal institutions of each nation Rule of law—what you own depends not
on force or who you know, but is protected by law that treat all persons equally
Private property rights—the rights to use and sell resources are clearly defined, cheaply enforceable, and fully transferable
Open markets—people are free to buy and sell when, where and to or from whom they wish, including citizens of other nations

Secure property rights, rule of law, and open markets encourage people to make long term investments in human and physical capital Education, buildings, innovation, land quality,
infrastructure, etc These investments raise the capital stock—
both physical and human capital stocks This in turn generates income over the long
run, raising living standards and human well being

Answer the key questions by a system of supply and demand. (in other words, it allows buyers and sellers to voluntarily exchange things)
The ability of markets to coordinate economic activity is emphasized by Adam Smith in
“The Wealth of Nations.” This is what he referred to as
the Invisible Hand

...every individual necessarily labours to render the annual revenue of the society as great as he can. He generally, indeed, neither intends to promote the public interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it. By preferring the support of domestic to that of foreign industry, he intends only his own security; and by directing that industry in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention. Nor is it always the worse for the society that it was no part of it. By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of the society more effectually than when he really intends to promote it. I have never known much good done by those who affected to trade for the public good.

What is Adam Smith basically saying with this passage? If individuals are allowed to pursue their
own self-interest, then the often times the result will be a more efficient economy. There is NO PLANNING
What do you think Adam Smith envisioned as the role of Government in the economy?

Answer the key questions by relying on past customs and practices:
“The Inuit of northern Canada serve as a prime example of a traditional economy. For thousands of years, the Inuit parents have taught their children the survival skills needed to survive in the Arctic Circle's severe climate. The children are taught to fish, hunt, and make effective tools. Once learned, these skills are passed down to the next generation.”
