Today would have been Murray Rothbard’s ninety-sixth birthday.
This year marks twenty-seven years since we lost Murray, but we continue to benefit from his genius. Not only do his great works on economic theory, history, and political philosophy continue to be consumed by aspiring young scholars around the world, but we continue to add new Rothbardian material to our online library.
There may never be another Murray Rothbard, but the Rothbardian tradition has never been stronger.
Help celebrate Murray’s birthday with a copy of Man, Economy, and State pocket edition. Everyone who makes a donation of $30 or more today will get one. All donations will fund student scholarships.
The Mises Institute exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian school of economics, and individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard. These great thinkers developed praxeology, a deductive science of human action based on premises known with certainty to be true, and this is what we teach and advocate. Our scholarly work is founded in Misesian praxeology, and in self-conscious opposition to the mathematical modeling and hypothesis-testing that has created so much confusion in neoclassical economics.
