This segment on my lecture on the philosophes focuses on the work of Immanuel Kant and Adam Smith. Kant, most famous for writing the Critique of Pure Reason, stated that Enlightenment involves an individual's decision to escape from nonage and think independently. His categorical imperative provided a framework for deciding whether or not an action is moral by considering what would happen if that action became universal law. Adam Smith, the father of classical economic theory and the author of Wealth of Nations, advocated for an economy free from government intervention. Smith claimed that an economy guided by the "invisible hand" of self-interested individuals would produce a more prosperous society than an economy guided by a central authority. This fits in well with other Enlightenment theories, which stress the importance and sufficiency of natural law.

These videos are terrific, Tom. Thank you!
Everyone ignores Smith's most important work, the theory of moral sentiments. It describes his moral philosophy. He believes that people are inherently selfish, but believes that human beings are capable of sympathy. He also showed the limits of non - interference, which is why he favored basic government intervention and limited wealth redistribution. Smith also distrusted both big business and big government. He was also in favor of free trade, but not unlimited free trade. Smith agreed with the mercantilists in regards to limiting trade during times of war. Smith was also in favor of progressive taxation.
Thanks, Mr Richey. Always enjoy the videos. Greetings from Australia. I watch for the pleasure of learning (or maybe it's because I didn't pay enough attention to history when I was younger.) Great series and I look forward to watching more of the videos.
+redastair Few students care about history enough to pay much attention in high school. It’s a privilege to be able to provide “better late than never” education to so many people worldwide.
This series is one of the best philosophy videos that I have watched on RUclips!
Thanks Tom. You are providing an excellent and much need service. We need more teachers like you in the classrooms, and more Patriots like you in government. Listen up youngsters. You have an American hero for a teacher. Very rare
Just started watching your videos. They're great. Your voice always reminds me if Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) from Friday Night Lights.
Currently studying for my undergraduate final oral exam in philosophy, thanks for the refreshers!
Did you pass
this man is literally a God, I didn't understand my readings and then I found this series and its helped so much.
Had to cover Kant in my ethics based philosophy class this year 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 mans philosophy is hard core
i learned about kant a month ago in Philosophy!!lol still nice to look back to it haha
Self-interest well understood makes us kinder.
Good video, just like other videos by Mr. Richey. But I wish he had also discussed Smith Theory of Moral Sentiments and the connection between 'impartial spectator' and 'invisible hand'
Thank you, sir.
Thanks Tom for doing an awesome job. I just Kant understand some of Kant's topics but this helped.
HAHAHA I see what you did there!
Thank you so much Tom I have subbed to your channel. Is there a possibility you could do a video on Leibniz which would include Truth of reasoning vs. Truth of facts
Tom Richey thank you for everything you do. Without you I would have a F in ap euro. Keep it up!
In thefree market, in spite of the fact that everybody is looking out for the self-interest, there is an invisible hand that makes it, so the public good is achiefed. Many years later, Milton Friedman said, the reverse of public sector. Public sector is where everybody is looking for the public good, but at the end of the day there is sort of invisible hand that makes it so private interests are always achieved first.
I think you need to add something about Moral Sentiments. The books, even though they were published so far apart, need each other for balance
Below is an expanding and (roughly) chronological list of links to European history videos (generally these feature lecturers who summarize material well and deliver it in an engaging way, such as Tom Richey and Paul Sargent, or great animators featuring maps that illustrate the passage of events geographically). The units correspond to those of AP EURO (see link all the way at the end). A few videos on a 'Crown and Church estates' series from Marty Rady (of University College London) are sprinkled in, which feature the importance of Central Europe, an area that is generally not covered sufficiently in most introductory courses. While most of these materials are appropriate for AP Euro students, undergraduates, particularly those who want a refresher before taking more advanced courses, and life-long learners may also benefit from them. These materials compare quite favorably with 'massive open online courses' (MOOCs), and often are better, IMHO. Combined with a reading of some primary sources (many now easily available online in translation) and viewings of art from the eras covered (many great works can be viewed in high-resolution online), one can acquire a fairly good understanding of the last 500 years or so of European history in a relatively short period. Anything comparable would simply not have been possible for most people 20 years ago, and probably not even 10 years ago. Kudos to the content providers!

Wow!! Who did this? Thanks so much.
I have a video suggestion!!what states were created in Europe in the 19th century i think its pretty important everything that went down that century lol
Tom can you do a video on Ibn Khaldun
Dr. Who? For Kant stuff?
Look at all the books behind him. Hey Tom, is Leviathan back there? 😁
would be Kant against Smith's idea of selfish idea ? I mean, Kant would say ''You must act by the categoric imperative, so you don't drive your accions by your senses, if they can fool one time, they fool you all the times''
Smith says it's good to act by your selfish senses, in other way, invisible hand will take you over the market, you would act in way not to get their benevolence but to get their interest in us
The autogenetated subtitle thing translates Philosophes as "phyllis oafs" 😂😂😂
Immanuel Kant...but at least Immanuel tried ;-)
Jamie Ramone AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUGGGHH!!!!!!!!!!!! NO!!!
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!
great
Categorical Imperative, That is a flawed assumption - using bloodshed as an example it never always good nor never always bad. In defense of oneself it takes bloodshed of the aggressor to prevent harm to ones personal well-being. In this regard bloodshed is good and acceptable. It is also bad in the sense that the blood of the innocent is shed out of malevolence.
Also if Kant stated that enlightenment is about thinking for yourself and not allowing institutions do your thinking for you, why did he trumpet an institution, "the categorical imperative," that would basically do your thinking for you and give leeway to anyone with the desire to put what they viewed as right in the forefront of what others perceived as right thus stripping any ability for one to think for himself in regards to what is good for them.
Do you see the contradiction.
And also reason and experience do not necessarily go hand and with one another for the sole fact that an experience has the capacity to cause you to develop mistaken reasoning. For example, consider Karl Marx. Marx lived experienced a time of unfettered monopoly and tyrannical cronyism, cronyism that he falsely equated to capitalism due to his experience implying that all business owners were fundamentally flawed and in turn believing that capitalism was fundamentally flawed because those crony's called themselves capitalists. Capitalism is the opposite stressing the importance of a monopoly free and competition ridden free market in which the business owner must obey and enrich the lives of the consumer so that they continue to give him their money as well as enrich the lives of the worker so that they continue to work for them.
You have the exact voice of Neil Cavuto.
a manual can't tell me what to do
Immanuel kant, tell me what to do!
Yeah there's the contradiction and irony. Well put. Don't listen to the Church, but listen to me (the modern mantra).
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
We need visible hand of government to set standards. For example heavy metals in water. You're not going to hire a lab to find max dosage of selenium. You give your government authority to protect you.
+Peter Huang If a private provider is providing water as a service, they have the incentive to test the water themselves because bad water would put them out of business. Government could be helpful in this situation but certainly not necessary.
Tom richey. John Snow I think would be the first example of this not being true. And that was unintentional. Self interest leads to efficiency which could lead test being seen as too expensive
3:48 Hahaha how i met your mother helping us learn lol
Offer up their money worth and trade for exchange goods for value. The money becomes capital money instead of paper up cash.
I didn't skip the ads o7
Thank this will help me on the debate😂😁😁
+Briana Corrielus Always glad to help!
Can u do frederick Nietzsche??
Yea sell them their money worth and you trade for exchange goods for value. The money becomes capital money not depreciating.
Who's here after the latest crowd cast stream
>that's "butcher's meat" reference
Richey will save net neutrality
"not willfully cheating . . ." But what if someone IS willfully cheating? Don't we need a mechanism to investigate that cheating and if found to expose and/or punish it? If you claim you are making beer with ONLY barley, hops, yeast and water and I claim that, in addition to those ingredients, your beer also contains rice, how are these conflicting claims evaluated? How are false claims sanctioned?
Greed is good
In a nutshell Kant says practising Christianity doesn't encourage critical thinking, yet universities were started by the Church in the 1200s. I suppose the Enlightenment was the dawn call for mass education. The Enlightenment thinkers seem to have been disenchanted Christians, while the 1600-1700 thinkers were practising Christians.
First
Kantstitutes😂
Realy interesting substance. But pls refrain from making those terrible cringy jokes. And I hope you can respect that i don't have half a day before you finaly manage to get to the relevant point of your hour long side tangants. Extra info is great but keep it "snappie" if you will.
Would love to see/learn more so keep up making these if you'd please.
