Is Government the New God? - The Religion of Authoritarianism

The Impact of Ideas in History

In this lecture we examine the role ideas play in the course of human history, concentrating on the thought of Ludwig von Mises. We pay specific attention to how societies change and contrast Mises views to those who utilize a philosophy of history to explain historical change, such as Karl Marx. =================================================== Support us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/academyofideas Recommended Readings: Human Action by Ludwig von Mises - http://amzn.to/1sAEWm3 (affiliate link) Planning for Freedom by Ludwig von Mises - http://amzn.to/1OZSzpe (affiliate link) Visit http://www.academyofideas.com for more videos, video transcripts and more! =================================================== --- Learn more about your ad choices.
