War and Inflation

A state without money or a state that must tax its citizens to raise money for its wars is necessarily limited in its imperial ambitions. Keep in mind that this is only a problem for the state.

Milei Snubs the Spanish Political Establishment

Javier Milei’s recent “snub” of Spain’s political establishment during a recent visit there may have been a “violation” of diplomatic protocol, but it also was a statement that Spain’s socialism itself is uncivilized.

Friday Philosophy with David Gordon

Argument by Fiat

In his latest book, Late Admissions: Confessions of a Black Conservative, Glenn Loury engages in what David Gordon calls an argument by fiat. While Loury makes a good faith effort to explain his points, his logic is nonetheless lacking.

What is the Mises Institute?

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard. 

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
