Abstract
Suggested that B. Spinoza was the original proposer of the famous principle of "invisible hand". It was proved by the comparison of formal and informal matters of the Smithian and Spinozian's definitions. Authors analyzed the elements and composition of notions made by A. Smith and B. Spinoza. It was asserted that the Spinoza's definition appeared more ancient, both in virtue of terms in use and the structure. Composition of notion represented by A. Smith appeared, in some measure, simplified and contained on other principles.
