Democracy--the god that failed : the economics and politics of monarchy, democracy and natural order by Hans-Hermann Hoppe( Book )

24 editions published between 2001 and 2018 in English and Undetermined and held by 411 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"The core of this book is a systematic treatment of the historic transformation of the West from monarchy to democracy. Revisionist in nature, it reaches the conclusion that monarchy is a lesser evil than democracy, but outlines deficiencies in both. Its methodology is axiomatic-deductive, allowing the writer to derive economic and sociological theorems, and then apply them to interpret historical events."--Jacket

The economics and ethics of private property : studies in political economy and philosophy by Hans-Hermann Hoppe( Book )

The collapse of socialism across Eastern Europe - as manifested most dramatically by the events of the forever memorable November 9, 1989, when the Germans of East and West reunited, moved and overjoyed, on top of the Berlin Wall - has added more support and urgency to the central thesis of this volume than I had ever hoped for. Whether the following studies deal with economic topics, such as employment, interest, money, banking, business cycles, taxes, public goods, or growth; with philosophical problems as the foundations of know ledge, and of economics and ethics in particular; or the reconstruction and theoretical explanation of historical and sociological phenomena such as exploitation, the rise and fall of civilizations, international politics, war, imperialism, and the role of ideas and ideological movements in the course of social evolution - each ultimately contributes to but one conclusion: The right to private property is an indisputably valid, absolute principle of ethics and the basis for continuous 'optimal' economic progress. To rise from the ruins of socialism and overcome the stagnation of the Western welfare states, nothing will suffice but the uncompromizing privatization of all socialized, that is, government, property and the establishment of a contractual society based on the recognition of the absoluteness of private property rights. *** In writing the following studies I received help from many sides. Special thanks go to my wife Margaret, who again took on the task of de Germanizing my English; to Llewellyn H

Die folgenden Studien behandeln die Frage, Wie soli eine Gesellschaft geordnet wer den; und warum so und nicht anders'? Derart mit normativen Problem en befagt, unterscheiden sie sich grundsatzlich von der in der sozial- und politikwissenschaftli chen Literatur gegenwartig immer exklusiver gepflegten Form empirischer For schung, bei der normative Fragen entweder vollstandig ausgeblendet oder - ver breiteter noch und fragwurdiger! - durch beliebig herbeizitierte subjektive Meinun gen, gelost' werden, und die von daher praktisch irrelevant bleiben mug oder als partikularistische (parteiliche) Propaganda einzustufen ist. Die vorliegenden Unter suchungen knupfen demgegenuber bewugt an die Tradition der Klassiker politischer Theorie an. Wie etwa Th. Hobbes oder J. Locke, D. Hume oder J.J. Rousseau, A. Smith oder K. Marx in ihren Arbeiten allgemein, objektiv begrundete Losungen fUr praktische Probleme formulieren wollen, so auch diese Arbeit; wie sie sich nicht an den methodisch-methodologischen Kanon empirisch-analytischer F orschung halten, so folgen auch die hier vorgelegten Studien einer nicht-empirischen Forschungslo gik; und wie sie sich nicht urn die Grenzen der wissenschaftlichen Fiicherteilung kummern (konnen), so reichen auch die folgenden Analysen von Philosophie bis Okonomie. * In inhaltlicher Hinsicht fallt die vorliegende Arbeit nicht weniger aus dem Rah men. 1m Gegensatz zur von Th. Hobbes bis R. Nozick reichenden offiziell-offi ziosen Tradition der politischen Theorie wird die These entfaltet und begriindet, daB es fur die Existenz eines Staates (auch eines liberalen Minimalstaates) nicht den Schimmer rechtfertigbarer Griinde gibt

"This book presents the theoretical and practical arguments for liberalism. Mises contrasts liberalism with other conceivable systems of social organization such as socialism, communism, and fascism. He is also more specific here than elsewhere in applying the liberal program to economic policy, domestic and foreign."--Jacket
