• A claim for equality of material position can be met only by a government with totalitarian powers. - Friedrich A. Hayek

The Mises Seminar (Sydney, November 25-26)

Posted by Sukrit Sabhlok on 29th January 2011 11:25am

The Mises Seminar will bring together Australians interested in libertarianism and the Austrian school of economics. The event comprises a dinner on Friday, November 25, and an all day seminar on Saturday, November 26. The events can be purchased separately, or together as a package deal at a discount.

The seminar will field a line-up of prominent anti-state, anti-war and pro-market thinkers from around Australia, with special guest Professor Hans-Hermann Hoppe. Our speakers understand that free-markets generate prosperity, and that government intervention is both economically and socially destructive.

Leading scholars and authors will discuss a wide range of subjects including the causes of the business cycle, problems with mainstream economics, and the prospects for liberty. The seminar will provide an opportunity for libertarians to connect with like-minded colleagues from across Australia.
