# Benevolence
## Definition
The disposition to do good to others out of goodwill rather than self-interest.
Smith argues that benevolence is an insufficient basis for economic organisation
in a complex society. While a person may secure the friendship of a few through
appeals to benevolence, they cannot rely on it to obtain the co-operation of
the "great multitudes" they need in civilised life. Even beggars, who depend
chiefly on benevolence for their subsistence, conduct most of their actual
transactions through exchange.
## Source Chapter
Book I, Chapter 2: "Of the Principle which gives Occasion to the Division
of Labour"
## Context
Benevolence serves as the foil to self-interest. Smith systematically argues
that while benevolence exists, it cannot scale to support the complex
interdependencies of a specialised economy, making self-interested exchange
the necessary coordinating mechanism.
