<strong>About</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Mises</strong> <strong>Institute</strong><br />
OUR MISSION<br />
The <strong>Ludwig</strong> <strong>von</strong> <strong>Mises</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> champions <strong>the</strong> economics of<br />
liberty in academics and in public life. We seek a radical shift<br />
in <strong>the</strong> intellectual climate to restore <strong>the</strong> free and enterprising<br />
society. In this cause, we defend <strong>the</strong> market economy, private<br />
property, and sound money, and oppose all forms of government<br />
intervention.<br />
OUR WORK<br />
Working with young people at more than 900 colleges and<br />
universities, and with our Members around <strong>the</strong> world, we<br />
offer student fellowships, teaching programs, conferences,<br />
books, and academic and popular periodicals. All combine to<br />
advance <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>ory and practice of freedom, <strong>the</strong> key to prosperity<br />
and civilization, and to show that statism causes poverty<br />
and social chaos.<br />
OUR HISTORY<br />
Founded in 1982 and named for <strong>Ludwig</strong> <strong>von</strong> <strong>Mises</strong>, <strong>the</strong> economist<br />
of <strong>the</strong> century, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Mises</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> has inspired students,<br />
professors, writers, statesmen, and businessmen to commit<br />
<strong>the</strong>mselves to <strong>the</strong> ideas and practice of liberty. As <strong>the</strong> standard-bearer<br />
of <strong>the</strong> Austrian School of economics, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Institute</strong><br />
has enjoyed <strong>the</strong> support of such luminaries as Murray N.<br />
Rothbard, F.A. Hayek, and Henry Hazlitt.<br />

5th Edition<br />
with an Introduction by<br />
Paul Johnson<br />
Applied Austrian economics doesn’t get any better than this.<br />
America’s Great Depressionis a staple of modern economic literature<br />
and is crucial for understanding a pivotal event in American and<br />
world history.<br />
Since it first appeared in<br />
1963, it has been <strong>the</strong> definitive<br />
treatment of <strong>the</strong> causes<br />
of <strong>the</strong> depression. The book<br />
remains canonical today<br />
because <strong>the</strong> debate is still<br />
very alive.<br />
Had <strong>the</strong> book appeared<br />
in <strong>the</strong> 1940s, it might have<br />
spared <strong>the</strong> world much<br />
grief. Even so, its appearance<br />
in 1963 meant that freemarket<br />
advocates had <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
first full-scale treatment of<br />
this crucial subject.<br />

edition features a new<br />

REASSESSING THE PRESIDENCY<br />
THE RISE OF THE EXECUTIVE STATE<br />
AND THE DECLINE OF FREEDOM<br />
EDITED BY JOHN V. DENSON<br />
832 pgs. (hardback) $35.00<br />
ISBN: 0-945466-29-3<br />
Order No.: B284<br />
This is <strong>the</strong> first fullscale<br />
revision of <strong>the</strong> U.S.<br />
presidency written from<br />
an Austrian–libertarian<br />
perspective. These original<br />
essays zero in on a much<br />
neglected reality that <strong>the</strong><br />
executive department of<br />
<strong>the</strong> U.S. government has<br />
always been <strong>the</strong> sum total<br />
of <strong>the</strong> American welfare–<br />
warfare state (exactly as<br />
<strong>the</strong> antifederalists in <strong>the</strong><br />
founding era predicted).<br />
Whereas conventional<br />
histories tell a Whiggish<br />
story of ever-increasing<br />
progress, <strong>the</strong>se essays<br />
observe that <strong>the</strong> presidents<br />
and <strong>the</strong>ir administrations,<br />
from George Washington to<br />
Bill Clinton, have been responsible from <strong>the</strong> continual decline in<br />
liberty, particularly in <strong>the</strong>ir use of <strong>the</strong> war power.<br />
This volume, in its incredible scope and attention to scholarly<br />
detail, undertakes a complete rethinking of political history. It is<br />
<strong>the</strong> story of how <strong>the</strong> U.S., step by step, abandoned its libertarian<br />
roots.<br />

EGALITARIANISM AS A REVOLT AGAINST NATURE<br />

Rothbard’s treatise<br />
of applied libertarian<br />
political and economic<br />
<strong>the</strong>ory fueled <strong>the</strong> current<br />
intellectual revolt against<br />
<strong>the</strong> centralized social and<br />
economic management of<br />

He argues that<br />
egalitarian <strong>the</strong>ory always<br />
results in a politics of<br />
statist control because it<br />
is founded on revolt against<br />
<strong>the</strong> ontological structure of<br />
reality itself, an attempt to<br />
replace what exists with a<br />
romantic image of an idealized<br />
primitive state of nature.<br />
The implications of this<br />
are worked out on topics such as market economics,<br />
child rights, environmentalism, feminism, foreign policy,<br />
redistribution, and a host of o<strong>the</strong>r issues that are driving public<br />
debate today. The <strong>Mises</strong> <strong>Institute</strong>’s edition is reset, and includes<br />

These essays argue that <strong>the</strong> political<br />
impulse to secede is a vital part of <strong>the</strong><br />
Lockean classical-liberal tradition, one<br />
that emerges when national governments<br />
become too big and too ambitious.<br />
These important essays argue that<br />
<strong>the</strong> threat of secession should be revived<br />
as a bulwark against government<br />
encroachment on individual liberty and<br />
private property rights, as a guarantor<br />
of international free trade, and as<br />
protection against attempts to curb<br />
<strong>the</strong> freedom of association.<br />

“Economists of <strong>the</strong> Twentieth<br />

as <strong>the</strong> leading Austrian<br />
School thinker after <strong>Mises</strong>.<br />
In <strong>the</strong>se essays, some new<br />

Rothbard argues that<br />
economics is a deductive<br />

Economists are accustomed<br />
to thinking of <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
discipline as a modern<br />
science. Rothbard proves<br />
<strong>the</strong>m wrong. Long before<br />
he begins his discussion of<br />
more familiar 18th- and 19thcentury<br />
<strong>the</strong>orists, he covers<br />
hundreds of thinkers <strong>the</strong><br />
world over. This may prove<br />
to be <strong>the</strong> book’s major and<br />
lasting contribution.<br />
For Rothbard, <strong>the</strong> economic<br />
thought of <strong>the</strong> ancients, early<br />
Christians, and scholastics<br />
is surprisingly sophisticated.<br />
The implications of <strong>the</strong> Reformation<br />
are discussed, along<br />
with <strong>the</strong> proto-Austrian<br />
influence of <strong>the</strong> scholastic<br />
tradition, <strong>the</strong> high-water<br />
mark of economic thought<br />
before <strong>the</strong> marginal revolution.<br />
Rothbard views Adam<br />
Smith as having severed<br />
economics from its grounding<br />
in individual, purposeful<br />
human action.<br />
