click to correct the pronoun if needed. in 1776, economist adam smith theorized that labor—not gold or silver—was the ultimate source of a nations wealth. because of his revolutionary ideas, many people now call he the father of modern economics.

Brief Explanations

In the sentence "many people now call he the father of modern economics", the pronoun "he" is incorrect. The verb "call" takes a direct object, so we need to use the objective case pronoun "him".

Answer:

Change "he" to "him". The corrected sentence is: "Because of his revolutionary ideas, many people now call him the father of modern economics."
