Are you speaking about the Adam Smith that thought his book about morals was more important than The Wealth of Nations that lived in the 18th century or are you speaking about the public image of Adam Smith that's popular today?
The terms self-governance, self-respect, and personal responsibility don't appear in Adam Smith works about morals.
