Recent studies have investigated connections between Adam Smith’s economic and philosophical ideas and Catholic Social Teaching (CST). Scholars argue that their common background lies in their respective anthropologies, both endorsing a relational view of human beings. I raise one main concern regarding these analyses. I suggest that the relationality endorsed by Smith lacks a central element present in CST—the other-oriented perspective which is the intentional concern for promoting the good of others. Some key elements of CST, such as love, gift, gratuitousness, and fraternity, find a very different space in Smith’s social view and very little space in his economic view. Moreover, I show how CST relationality is more in accordance with a civil economy view of the market as a place of fraternity and mutual assistance.

最近的研究调查了亚当·斯密的经济和哲学思想与天主教社会教学（CST）之间的联系。学者们争辩说，他们的共同背景在于各自的人类学，都认可人类的关系观。我对这些分析提出了一个主要的关注。我建议，史密斯所认可的关系缺乏在CST中存在的核心要素，即面向他人的观点，这是对促进他人利益的故意关注。CST的一些关键要素，例如爱，礼物，免费和博爱，在史密斯的社会视野中发现了一个截然不同的空间，而在他的经济视野中却发现了一个很小的空间。此外，我根据公民经济将市场视为博爱和互助之地的观点，进一步说明了CST的关系如何。
