<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"First published in 1944 by Yale University Press."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Published in 1944, during World War II, <strong><em>Omnipotent Government</em></strong> was Mises's first book written and published after he arrived in the United States. In this volume Mises provides in economic terms an explanation of the international conflicts that caused both world wars. Although written more than half a century ago, Mises's main theme still stands: government interference in the economy leads to conflicts and wars. According to Mises, the last and best hope for peace is liberalism--the philosophy of liberty, free markets, limited government, and democracy.</p> <p><strong>Ludwig von Mises</strong> (1881-1973) was the leading spokesman of the Austrian School of economics throughout most of the twentieth century.</p> <p><strong>Bettina Bien Greaves</strong> is a former resident scholar and trustee of the Foundation for Economic Education and was a senior staff member at FEE from 1951 to 1999.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>....Throughout the book Mises alternates between explanations of economic theory and demonstrating the results in practice. He takes the reader through the philosophical arguments and rhetorical tricks of the Marxists and shows the results of such policies. He covers the collapse of the Weimar Republic, how anti-Semitism was hitched to etatism and economic justifications, the rise of National Socialism, the results of central planning, and even how monetary systems and gold standard play into the operation world economies. <br /><br /> www.whatwouldthefoundersthink.com<br /> August 2011<br>
