Ep2: Money and the Logic of Economic Calculation - Gene Callahan

In this episode of The Lens of Liberty, we explore the role of money not merely as wealth, but as a tool that makes economic calculation possible in complex societies.

episode Ep. 1: Markets Aren’t Zero-Sum — Gene Callahan cover

Ep. 1: Markets Aren’t Zero-Sum — Gene Callahan

Markets are often described as battlefields. Winners and losers. Economic wars. Crushed competition. But what if that language completely misunderstands how voluntary exchange actually works? In this first episode of The Lens of Liberty, John Riley explores a foundational idea in economics: the market is not a zero-sum game. When individuals trade freely, both sides expect to benefit — or the exchange doesn’t happen. This episode features an excerpt from Economics for Real People [https://www.audible.com/pd/Economics-for-Real-People-An-Introduction-to-the-Austrian-School-Audiobook/B07C4FC1MP?qid=1772222199&sr=1-3&ref_pageloadid=WZKoALK8v89yYelo&pf_rd_p=83218cca-c308-412f-bfcf-90198b687a2f&pf_rd_r=7HAZQYPBET2EX2KY6ZRD&plink=P9XcDaysUooOF7bL&pageLoadId=dSS32OdKe7x01VBL&creativeId=0d6f6720-f41c-457e-a42b-8c8dceb62f2c&ref=a_search_c3_lProduct_1_3]by Gene Callahan, published by Libertarian Publishing, explaining how markets are rooted in social cooperation rather than conflict. Before we talk about inflation. Before we talk about monetary policy. Before we talk about government intervention. We have to understand what voluntary exchange really is. In Episode 2, we’ll examine how money emerges from barter, why it transforms economic calculation, and why “money changes everything” in ways that still shape today’s monetary system.

New episodes of The Lens of Liberty explore first principles in economics, history, and political philosophy — without the usual headlines and hysteria.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
