The Austrian School of Economics

07/13/2011 Jörg Guido Hülsmann

Jeffrey Tucker interviews Jörg Guido Hülsmann, professor of economics at the University of Angers in France, and discusses the brilliant and engaging book by Eugen Maria Schulak and Herbert Unterköfler: ‘The Austrian School of Economics: A History of Its Ideas, Ambassadors, and Institutions’.

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.
