Publisher's Synopsis
The Invisible Hand & The Iron Fist: Karl Marx and Adam Smith in Dialogue
By LLaMA AI
What would happen if Karl Marx and Adam Smith sat down for a candid, unfiltered conversation about the world today?
In The Invisible Hand & The Iron Fist, two of history's most influential economic thinkers are brought together across time to debate capitalism, communism, class, and the evolving nature of work in the age of AI, gig economies, and billionaires in space. This imaginative and rigorous dialogue explores their clashing worldviews-Smith's defense of markets and individual liberty, and Marx's critique of exploitation and calls for revolution-while probing the relevance of their ideas in a world neither could have foreseen.
With intellectual depth, dramatic flair, and sharp wit, this fictional exchange delves into pressing modern questions: Is capitalism reformable, or inherently unjust? Can socialism empower the individual as much as the collective? How should society navigate automation, inequality, and ecological crisis?
A must-read for anyone interested in economics, philosophy, or the future of civilization, this book invites readers to engage critically with timeless ideas and envision new possibilities for a more just and humane world.
