Abstract

This article aims to put to the test Michel Foucault’s diagnosis about the thought of Adam Smith (1723-1790) as being part of the structure of Life, Labour and Language proper to the modern episteme. In order to question Foucault’s hypothesis, the text puts forward a medieval archaeology of modern economy, calling the attention on the medieval Franciscans and their ideas about the market and the law. As far as this point is concerned, several medieval Franciscan thinkers are taken into account amongst which the doctrines of Pedro de Juan Olivi stand out. Finally, we carry out a reflection about the validity of the triple structure advanced by Foucault regarding Smith in contrast with the present times of economic globalization.
