4. Adam Smith wrote two major books that are to democratic capitalism similar to

what Marx’s Das Kapital is to socialism, 这是一个名词性从句，相当于一个名词解释前面的democratic capitalism。也就是说他写的一本关于民族资本主义的书，其核心概念也就是马克思所谓的社会主义。

民主资本主义=社会主义

呵呵，看来资本主义确实是不可逾越的阶段啊，被一些人歪曲了快半个世纪。看看类似丹麦等北欧高福利国家，舒服得完全符合我们所描述的共产主义。

哦，那么先行词是资本主义，然后what是关系代词了？多谢了！

对于阁下的政治观点，我完全同意！
