It is a rare individual who is able to draw from many disparate traditions in economic thought and combine these into a coherent research program.  Brian J. Loasby, longtime professor of economics at the University of Stirling, United Kingdom, is one such individual.  This first of two volumes of essays written in his honor demonstrates the diversity of thought inspired by his work.  Professor Loasby, longtime professor of economics at the University of Stirling, United Kingdom, is one such individual.  This first of two volumes of essays written in his honor demonstrates the diversity of thought inspired by his work.  Professor Loasby has been a persistent critic of mainstream approaches to the issues of knowledge, entrepreneurship, and organization in economics—issues that stand at the forefront of Austrian research agenda.  In fact, contributions from Austrians and Marshallians (another nonmainstream school emphasizing dynamic rather than static analysis) to this volume show a surprising degree of complementarity, and serve as a forceful challenge to Walrasian orthodoxy.

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.
