<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 />

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 />

Order No.: B300<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 />
