Socialism is the perceived corrective means to arrive at peace between groups in conflict, sometimes in competition with socializing groups, e.g. the monarchy versus bourgeois socialism

'Having spent 10 years putting together this material in sum, Smith's 1776 Wealth of Nations had an enourmous impact among the rising bourgeois of Europe and the freshly independent United States of America.

The institutions of Fuedalism, largely still surviving throughout Europe in 1776, placed a variety of restrictions and impedements on the rising industrial bourgeoisie — US revolutionists had ardently broken from it in the same year. Smith's work provided the theoretical cannon shot for the chorus of growing bourgeois to strike back against Feudalistic bureaucracy and philosophy; giving them a philosophical manifesto behind which to stand, and an idealized government towards which to fight for. Smith was convinced that Feudalism's controls over the further development of Europe's economies would strangle industrial growth; and explained that the only correct way to practice economics was to do it by the dictates of capitalism, not the now defunct feudalism.
