Considered the father of modern economics, I believe he wrote the wealth of nations in order to establish boundaries between the state and economic freedoms.

Prior to 1776, the state (England) controlled who, what, where and when items could be bought, traded or sold. They established price points and inflationary means to fund the crown.

Smith wanted it known that economics should be free of the constraints of the state and allowed to "run free."
