Radical Austrianism, Radical Libertarianism

Walter Block, who authored the still-controversial Defending the Undefendable 30 years ago, just wrapped up his weeklong seminar at the Mises Institute, “Radical Austrianism, Radical Libertarianism.” This seminar was podcast live all week and is now available as free MP3 downloads at Mises.org (look in the Media section). Block offered a great (and very entertaining) overview of both Austrian economics and libertarianism (not the same thing, he stresses, despite what some people think). Subjects included free trade, the homesteading principle, minimum wage laws, environmentalism, abortion, reparations, and much more. Fer chrissakes, it’s FREE. Go hunt it up and listen!
