ANTHROPOCENE    

Humans have lived in the geological era of the fourth Holocene of the new age for 10,000 years. However, some scientists have determined the human impact on Earth and stated that the era of the Holocene has ended and that the new era of Anthropocene has begun. This means that human activity is equal to asteroid impacts and tectonic movements. Paul Crutzen, Nobel Prize laureate, has used the term “Anthropocene” for the first time. His proposal has been accepted in geology and biology and there has been participation in discussion by experts in philosophy of science, humanities, and social sciences which has been spreading widely around the world.

THE REAL ADAM SMITH Title
THE REAL ADAM SMITH: A PERSONAL EXPLORATION BY JOHAN NORBERG  
Produced by Free to Choose Media 
THE REAL ADAM SMITH: A PERSONAL EXPLORATION BY JOHAN NORBERG, takes an intriguing, two-part look at Smith and the evolution and relevance of his ideas today, both economic and ethical. It's difficult to imagine that a man who lived with horse-drawn carriages and sailing ships would foresee our massive 21st century global market exchange, much less the relationship between markets and morality. But Adam Smith was no ordinary 18th century figure. Considered the 'father of modern economics,' Smith was first and foremost a moral philosopher. The revolutionary ideas he penned in The Wealth of Nations and The Theory of Moral Sentiments, changed the world. Norberg explores Smith's insights regarding free trade and the nature of wealth to the present, where they are thriving and driving the world's economy.

1/23 (Tue) @ 3pm         
1/26 (Fri) @ 8:30pm

He talks with some of the most distinguished Adam Smith scholars, as well as leaders of some of the world’s most admired companies to discover how Smith’s ideas continue to be relevant and drive the global economy today.
