Murray Rothbard Knihy

Vývoj peněz na svobodném trhu a jejich úplné ovládnutí státy, to je téma proslulé Rothbardovy knihy sepsané velmi působivě pro nejširší okruh čtenářů. Zneužívaní této ohromné moci nad penězi a celou ekonomikou je jen dalším logickým krokem. Profesor Rothbard popisuje mechanismus uchvácení peněz a popis ničivých vládních intervencí a zhoubné politiky centrálních bank do rozpadu brettonwoodského systému. Vývoj od 70. let až ke vzniku eura zachycuje a vysvětluje v obsáhlém doslovu Guido Huelsmann. Celá kniha prokazuje, že za inflaci a hospodářské krize jsou odpovědny centrální banky – nástroj, kterým stát ovládá peníze.

In recent years, libertarian impulses have increasingly influenced national and economic debates, from welfare reform to efforts to curtail affirmative action. Murray N. Rothbard's classicThe Ethics of Libertystands as one of the most rigorous and philosophically sophisticated expositions of the libertarian political position.What distinguishes Rothbard's book is the manner in which it roots the case for freedom in the concept of natural rights and applies it to a host of practical problems. An economist by profession, Rothbard here proves himself equally at home with philosophy. And while his conclusions are radical--that a social order that strictly adheres to the rights of private property must exclude the institutionalized violence inherent in the state--his applications of libertarian principles prove surprisingly practical for a host of social dilemmas, solutions to which have eluded alternative traditions.The Ethics of Libertyauthoritatively established the anarcho-capitalist economic system as the most viable and the only principled option for a social order based on freedom. This edition is newly indexed and includes a new introduction that takes special note of the Robert Nozick-Rothbard controversies.

This gives a succinct account of Rothbard’s view of the state. Following Franz Oppenheimer and Albert Jay Nock, Rothbard regards the state as a predatory entity. It does not produce anything but rather steals resources from those engaged in production. In applying this view to American history, Rothbard makes use of the work of John C. Calhoun.How can an organization of this type sustain itself? It must engage in propaganda to induce popular support for its policies. Court intellectuals play a key role here, and Rothbard cites as an example of ideological mystification the work of the influential legal theorist Charles Black, Jr., on the way the Supreme Court has become a revered institution.

Ekonomie státních zásahů je první do češtiny přeložená kniha světoznámého libertariánského ekonoma M. Rothbarda, která rozebírá všechny myslitelné způsoby vládních zásahů do svobodné směny (jako jsou nejrůznější druhy daní, vládní výdaje, licencování povolání atd.) a dokazuje, že jejich společnou vlastností je snižování lidského blahobytu. Dokládá, že ke zvyšování blahobytu všech lidí je nutný svobodně fungující trh bez existence vládních zásahů.

A classic that for over two decades has been hailed as the best general work on libertarianism available. Rothbard begins with a quick overview of its historical roots, and then goes on to define libertarianism as resting "upon one single axiom: that no man or group of men shall aggress upon the person or property of anyone else." He writes a withering critique of the chief violator of liberty: the State. Rothbard then provides penetrating libertarian solutions for many of today's most pressing problems, including poverty, war, threats to civil liberties, the education crisis, and more.

"Few economists manage to produce a body of work that boasts a serious following twenty years after their deaths. Murray N. Rothbard is a rare exception. More than two decades since his passing, his influence lives on, both in the work of a new generation of social scientists, and among a growing number of the general public. One reason for Rothbard's continuing popularity is his ability to reach across disciplines, and to connect them. This book provides a window into the brilliance of Rothbard's achievements in the social sciences, humanities, and beyond ..."--Back cover

Murray Rothbard, a pivotal figure in the American libertarian movement, explores the concept of "anarcho-capitalism," advocating for a society free from government control. He argues that the coercive nature of government is the greatest threat to individual liberty and societal welfare, labeling it a "gang of thieves writ large." Rothbard builds on the Austrian School's idea of spontaneous order, asserting that all services currently monopolized by the state could be more efficiently delivered by the private sector, promoting a vision of a truly free market.

In this, the first of two volumes, Murray Rothbard - one of the major figures in twentieth-century Austrian economics - argues with clarity and force that economics is a deductive science based on the fundamental realities of action, scarcity and the passage of time. Such conviction is demonstrated in the first part of this book, where Professor Rothbard analyses method. The second part focuses on some of the theoretical debates within the Austrian school, including property and justice rights, welfare economics, value and efficiency. In the third section Rothbard considers the Austrian approach to money and calculation, including discussion of the definition of the supply of money, freely floating exchange rates and calculation and its role under socialism. This latest volume of Murray Rothbard's work goes some way to represent the important contributions he made to the field. The second volume of Murray Rothbard's essays on Austrian economics is also available.
