Joseph T. Salerno on Murray Rothbard, Demagogic Politics, and the Austrian Economists with ISI

Dr. Joseph Salerno recently joined Tom Sarrouf on the podcast Conservative Conversations with ISI, a product of the Intercollegiate Studies Institute.

In this episode, they discuss Murray Rothbard’s political and economic thought, why a demagogue is necessary for the masses to re-establish control over their government in the age of social democracy, and a primer on the economic theory of the Austrian economists, as well as their underlying anthropology and praxeology.

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.
