Agenda 21

10/06/2005 Mises Wire Sean Corrigan

“You cannot OWN property, comrade, you might misuse it. Leave it to us self-appointed Global Guardians to take care of things for you, instead.”

Make Ourselves Miserable Now

08/27/2008 Mises Daily Sean Corrigan

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.
