Invisible Hand

What is Invisible Hand

The phrase “the invisible hand” is a metaphor that was developed by Adam Smith, a Scottish moral philosopher. It is used to explain the incentives that free markets frequently generate for individuals who are motivated by their own self-interest to act in the benefit of the public. In the beginning, Smith only offered particular examples when he invoked the phrase. It is mentioned once in his Theory of Moral Sentiments, which was published in 1759, as a component of an argument that defends monopolistic land ownership through the trickle-down effect. However, it is also used once in his Wealth of Nations, where he explains that foreign traders can be trusted provided the incentives are appropriate, which frequently eliminates the need for governments to intervene. This is the most famous usage of the phrase.
