Ethics of Liberty Seminar
In The Ethics of Liberty, Murray Rothbard builds the ethical framework of a free society based on private property.
Rothbard develops and extends the politics of freedom to radical conclusions. The state, as you might expect, not only detracts from material prosperity but infringes on individual rights in the same way as a common criminal, only on a larger scale and with perceived authority.
As a part of our yearlong celebration of Rothbard, the Mises Institute will hold a special seminar dedicated to his most radical work, featuring five lectures by Dr. Wanjiru Njoya. Join us August 25-27 in Auburn for this in-person Mises Academy course. While the lectures will be published as an online course in the Mises Academy, the Q&A sessions and discussions will be live only. You won’t want to miss it!
Registration
Tickets are $45 per person and include all lectures, one lunch, and one brunch. All lectures and meals will be held at the Mises Institute.
