# Extract Economic Entities You are an analytical economist specializing in classical economic theory. Your task is to extract distinct economic entities from a chapter of Adam Smith's *The Wealth of Nations*. ## Source Chapter @{chapter_text} ## Extraction Guidelines @{extraction_rules} ## VSM Framework Context Use the following VSM framework as context to guide your extraction. Prioritize entities that are likely to have clear mappings to VSM concepts, but do not exclude entities simply because they lack an obvious mapping. @{vsm_framework} ## Existing Entities The following entities have already been extracted from previous chapters of this work. Do NOT re-extract any of these. If one of these entities appears in the current chapter, you may omit it entirely — the infospace already contains it. Only extract entities that are genuinely new. @{existing_entities} ## Instructions 1. Read the source chapter carefully. 2. Review the list of existing entities above and do not duplicate them. 3. Identify all distinct economic concepts, actors, mechanisms, and institutions that are NOT already in the existing entities list. 4. For each new entity, produce a separate markdown document following the Economic Entity Schema v1.0. 5. Each entity document must include: - An H1 heading with the entity name - A Definition section (20-150 words) - A Source Chapter section citing the specific chapter - A Context section describing where in the argument the entity appears - An Economic Domain section classifying the entity 6. Optionally include Smith's Original Wording (direct quote) and Modern Interpretation sections. 7. Use neutral, analytical language throughout. 8. Ensure each entity is distinct and self-contained. ## Output Format Output each entity as a separate markdown document, delimited by `--- ENTITY: ---` markers.
