In the present paper we tried to put the denominated «A. Smith’s problem» as a base to reconsider the interrelation between Ethics and Economics. Firstly we make a critical revision on the attempts to integrate the Smith’s works on morals and economy, secondly we propose an alternative solution constructed on the Smithian concepts of sympathy and impartial spectator. In our approach, moral is built as an extension of sympathy relations and constitutes a precondition for the market existence. The analysis carried out allows to clarify the way morals constitutes a base of the economic system and, at the same time, how economy conditions morals.
