摘　　要：作为经济学的奠基之作,亚当·斯密在二百多年前所写的《国富论》立论宏大,曾起过伟大的历史作用,时至今日,它是否还有现实意义?作者经过认真研读并联系现实社会主义所经历的曲折,认为斯密的《国富论》尽管存在不少矛盾和错误观点,但其中所蕴含的思想,对我国正在进行的经济体制和政治体制改革仍然具有深刻的启示:商品经济是人类社会不可逾越的发展阶段———市场机制是商品经济阶段最有效的运行机制———生产力水平和人的本质是经济机制选择的基本依据———公民权利是市场机制运行的制度前提。斯密的深邃思想犹如市场经济大洋深处的灯塔,将照耀我们前进的航向。An inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations was written by Adam Smith more than 200 years ago. As a classic work on economics, it has substantial content and played a great role in history. Does it have any practical significance today? Having studied the book and the practice of socialism, we think that Smith's thought still has practical significance to the reform of economy and politics in China. Market economy is a stage that can't be omitted in the development of human society, and market mechanism is the most effective in the stage of market economy. Productive force and human nature are the essential basis for the selection of economic mechanism. Civil rights are the prerequisite for the operation of mechanism. Like a lighthouse in the ocean of market economy, Smith's thought mentioned above will light our course.
