Öz

Adam Smith’e ve onun öğrencisi George Stigler’e göre, kişisel çıkar insan davranışını motive eder. Dolayısıyla, ekonomist Stigler’in kıvrak zekâ, netlik, ve örneklerle iktisatçıların önem arz etmediğini ileri sürdüğünü okumak en azından kafa karıştırıcıdır. Kafa karıştırıcıdır, çünkü başka bir yerde o, aynı başarıyla, iktisatçıların sık sık kendilerine ait katkıların önemini mübalağa etmek yoluyla üne kavuştuklarını öne sürmektedir
