From my own (along with Chris Coyne and Peter Leeson) presentation of the contra-whig positions see our paper published in the .  I cannot recommend this lecture highly enough.  Rothbard was a major influence on me when I started studying economics, and various aspects of his way of viewing things has continued to shape me ever since.  Obviously, I also have some serious disagreements of style and substance.  But listen to this lecture transplanted me back in time, though I was not there for this, I heard a series of similar lectures in DC in I believe in 1985 (with Steve H ..read more

I attended grad school from 1984-88, and one thing about GMU I so fondly remember was the spirit among my fellow students at CSMP.  Two of the more advanced students Roy Cordato and Karen Palesek were mentors to those of us coming up behind them.   Wonderful people, inspiring and dedicated teachers and exemplary scholars.  They were also highly trained and skilled musicians before becoming economists.  That unique skill set let Roy in a moment of inspired joy to create the first Austrian ..read more

So if GMU -- Masonomics -- has done anything consistently over its history -- from the early 1980s when its PhD program was formed to the most recent graduating class, it has tried to be a place that cultivates the talents of the natural economist through proper training so they they as ordinary individuals with the aid of economic science can too rise to the heights of an observational genius. And in so doing, make sense of the senseless that we see everyday out our windows, on our computers and TV screens, or read in the news or on our cellphones with Twitter and other social media.  Th ..read more

I will write more about Steve in the days to come, but for now, watch this interview  and listen to his lecture.  He truly was not just a teacher, but a GREAT teacher.   , his temperament, and his interest in reaching out to the left -- that I cannot be objective about him and his work."   Don was a teacher, he taught us to be teachers . It was not a derogatory term in our universe, never was.  Lavoie students are teacher/scholars.  In fact, we were taught we had a moral obligation to be dedicated and effective teachers.  Steve exemplified that.
