Adam smith applied enlightenment ideas of reason to his economic philosophy of laisser-faire and a free market economy. which statement below best explains his concept of natural law in the government’s role in the economic lives of its citizens?

You didn't include statement choices, but my assumption is it's something like this:   The government stays out of business regulation to let the people operate as they please.

Explanation/context:

Adam Smith (1723-1790) was a powerful critic against what he called the "mercantile system" of his day, because it restricted trade and thus restricted economic growth.  The mercantile system believed the wealth of the world was a fixed amount, measured primarily in gold and silver accumulated.  The system promoted a nation selling its products abroad but not needing to buy from others, or imposing heavy tariffs if importing anything.  Colonies were crated to provide raw materials and resources to the mother country and a market for the mother country's products.  Commerce was heavily controlled by the government through charters granted to specific trading companies.

Adam Smith countered by advocating a free market -- the opportunity for all nations to increase their wealth by exchanging goods freely with one another according to what would become known as capitalist principles.  The "laissez-faire" terminology for this is a French term, which came from a French group of thinkers called the Physiocrats (meaning "rule by nature').  They and Smith were in agreement about getting government out of the business of controlling business.

overtime, the civil rights movement changed in a way that not only it benefited african-americans, but benefited other ethnicity's such as latinos, asians, or women too! that's why the results of the movement be called mixed.

the civil rights movement brought about tremendous changes. no longer were blacks denied the right to vote, to eat, shop, and swim where they , and more importantly, to attend integrated schools. despite its many accomplishments, however, the civil rights movement had its shortcomings. for example, many people, both young and old, lost their lives, homes, jobs, and families. still other individuals were so damaged by psychological trauma that they ceased being productive members of the community. the movement left intact the economic inequities that had contributed to the maintenance of segregation. and finally, racism remained alive and well long after the movement's end. like most movements of its kind, the civil rights movement left behind a mixed legacy of triumph and tragedy.
