An Introduction to Austrian Economics, Part 2

from FFF LibertyView

Buy the book here: Austrian Economics is the most powerful explanation of why governments, no matter how well-intentioned, lack the knowledge, wisdom and ability to direct the lives of multitudes of people better than those people can do for themselves. In this series of easy-to-understand lectures, economist Richard Ebeling introduces you to the central ideas in Austrian Economics, as well as their importance for us today. Richard is the BB&T Distinguished Professor of Ethics and Free Enterprise at The Citadel, former president of The Foundation for Economic Education, and the former Ludwig von Mises Professor of Economics at Hillsdale College where he also served as head of the economics department. Launched in conjunction with a new ebook entitled Austrian Economics & Public Policy at Amazon.com , this lectures series why and how it is that all these attempts at government social engineering have failed and often with disastrous consequences.
