The person who has been known up until today as the "father of modern economics" is Adam Smith. A thinker and philosopher from Scotland, born in 1723 and died in 1790, Adam Smith was given this important title because of his ideas and theories on laissez-fair and the tendency of free markets to regulate themselves by way of competition, supply, demand and self-interest. He wrote several books where he proposed his economic ideas, among which we have: The Theory of Moral Sentiments, where he expresses this ideal of a hidden hand, which means the capacity of markets to autoregulate and An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. He was also the proponent of the theory of compensating wage differentials, which states that jobs that are riskier pay much better wages to workers because of the risk they represent, versus jobs that offer little to no risk. He is also known as the father of Capitalism.

How did past religions and bellied systems assist or impede the development of independent nations, such as colonial and post-co
Helen [10]

Answer:

Religions and past beliefs systems have mostly been a disrupting element for development in India, the Middle East, and post-colonial Africa.

Explanation:

The reason is mainly because in these areas of the world, diverging religions and past belief systems were lumped together in the country borders that former European colonial empires devised.

For example, in India, the British unified Muslims with Hindus and other Indian religions, but social conflict soon proved to be too disrupting, and this led to the separation of India and Pakistan.

In Syria, Christians, Sunni Muslims, and Shia Muslims were forced to live in the same country by the French. To this day, Syria keeps essentially the same borders, and the Syrian Civil War (still ongoing) is a testament to the problems that people of different religions and belief systems living together in the same space can cause to a country or region.
