8、ethod to market economics. Their ideas did not just spread among intellectuals, but to those people in business, government and the sciences who actually shaped the Western world. It all started during the period that historians call the Scottish Enlightenment (启蒙运动), which is usually seen as taking

9、 place between the years 1740 and 1800. Before that, philosophy was mainly concerned with religion. For the thinkers of the Scottish Enlightenment, the proper study of humanity was mankind itself. Their reasoning was practical. For the philosopher David Hume, humanity was the right subject for philo

10、sophy because we can examine human behavior and so find real evidence of how people think and feel. And from that we can make judgments about the societies we live in and make concrete suggestions about how they can be improved for universal benefit. Hume“s enquiry into the nature of knowledge laid

11、the foundations for the scientific methodthe pursuit of truth through experiment. His friend and fellow resident of Edinburgh, Adam Smith, famously applied the study of mankind to the ways in which mankind does business. Trade, he argued, was a form of information. In pursuing our own interests thro

12、ugh trading in markets, we all come to benefit each other. Smith“s idea has dominated modern views of economics. It also has wide applications. He was one of the philosophers to point out that nations can become rich, free and powerful through peace, trade and invention. Although the Scottish Enligh

13、tenment ended a long time ago, the ideas which evolved at that time still underpin (构成的基础) our theories of human exchange and enquiry.

British Prime Minister Tony Blair wants the G8 to cancel debt to the world“s poorest countries. He wants them to double aid to Africa to 50 billion pounds by 2010. He ha

18、s also proposed reducing subsidies to Western farmers and removing restrictions on African exports. This has not got the approval of all members because it will hurt their agricultural interests. On climate change, Blair wants concerted (共同的) action by reducing carbon emissions (排放). US President Ge

19、orge W. Bush agrees to give help to Africa. But he says he doesn“t like the idea of increasing aid to countries as it will increase corruption. Bush said he would not sign an agreement to cut greenhouse gas emissions at the summit, according to media. The US is the only G8 member not to have signed

20、the Kyoto Protocol (京都议定书). Although the US is the world“s biggest polluter, Bush so far refuses to believe there is sufficient scientific data to establish beyond a doubt that there is a problem. French President Jacques Chirac supports Blair on Africa and climate change. He is determined to get th

21、e US to sign the climate change deal. German Chancellor Gerhard Schroder remains doubtful of Blair“s Africa proposals. Schroder“s officials have dismissed the notion that money will solve Africa“s problems as “old thinking.“ Berlin says that African states should only receive extra money if they can

22、 prove they“ve solved the corruption problem. Russian President Vladimir Putin was doubtful about the value of more aid to Africa. But he has seen a way to make this work to his advantage. Putin intends to use the aid to Africa as a springboard (跳板) next year to propose aid to the former Soviet repu
