The Economics of Sport at the Mises Institute

The Economics of Sport at the Mises Institute

Mises Institute Associated Scholar Frank Daumann of University of Jena in Germany visited the Mises Institute campus in September and discussed current research, and his latest book, The Economics of Doping, 2nd Ed. He hopes to return in March to present a paper at the Austrian Economics Research Conference.

Here is Dr. Daumann’s presentation from the 2013 Austrian Economic Research Conference, and here is audio of the presentation itself, titled “Doping: Never-ending story? Never-ending glory!” And here is an older interview with Dr. Daumann’s from 2011 titled “The Economics of Sports.”

Dr. Daumann is pictured with Dr. Mark Thornton in this totally natural, un-posed photograph taken at the Mises Institute:

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.
