From Jeffrey's foreword: This much I can assure the reader: after reading this book, you will never think about the U.S. Constitution and America’s founding the same way again. Sheldon Richman’s revealing and remarkably well-argued narrative will permanently change your outlook. The Constitution, far from limiting government, was actually designed to bring about a new one that betrayed the ideals of the Declaration of Independence itself. The ratification of the Constitution was a counter-revolution.There is a reason it has done a poor job in protecting freedom: it was never intended to do so.

• Liberty Classics — The Road to Serfdom
  Let Jeffrey Tucker introduce you to (or reacquaint you with) one of the most famous books in the libertarian tradition: Friedrich Hayek’s Road to Serfdom. An unimpeachable classic work in political philosophy, intellectual and cultural history, and economics, The Road to Serfdom has inspired and infuriated politicians, scholars, and general readers for half a century. Originally published in 1944—when Eleanor Roosevelt supported the efforts of Stalin, and Albert Einstein subscribed lock, stock, and barrel to the socialist program—The Road to Serfdom was seen as heretical for its passionate warning against the dangers of state control over the means of production

• Free Association — Reasons for Optimism
  Despite all that seems bleak and bloody, Sheldon and Lucy look at the reasons for optimism. What makes you hope for the future? Rising technologies? The entrance of the whole world into the global market? The increasing (if occasionally stumbling) acceptance on libertarian ideas?
• Liberty Classics — Machiavelli's The Prince
  How to wipe away the illusions promised by political control? An excellent place to start is Niccolo Machiavelli’s The Prince. Written in 1513, it considered the founding document of what is today called political science. It is an eye opening read, simply because it is such an unvarnished account of the primary purpose of the state. It is a manual for states to do the best possible job at achieving their aims. And what is that aim? Back in the day, the excuses for power were to secure the population against invasion, to protect the people’s faith against heresy, to control the mob so as to restrain chaos that makes life impossible. Today the exoteric reasons for state control include those but add many others: to being about income fairness, to stop unjust discrimination, to clean up the environment, and so on. See Jeffrey's new article on Machiavelli and 4 other essential books for liberty lovers.
• Jeffrey Tucker - What Has Government Done to Our Money?
  Jeffrey Tucker returns, ready to explore one of the biggest little books in liberty: Murray Rothbard's What Has Government Done to our Money? Innumerable economists, investors, commentators, and authors have learned from this book through the decades. After fifty years, it remains the best book in print on the topic, a real manifesto of sound money. Rothbard boils down the Austrian theory to its essentials. The book also made huge theoretical advances. Rothbard was the first to prove that the government, and only the government, can destroy money on a mass scale, and he showed exactly how they go about this dirty deed. But just as importantly, it is beautifully written. He tells a thrilling story because he loves the subject so much.

• Jeffrey Tucker — Liberty Classics: The Way to Will Power
  Enjoy an evening with Jeffrey Tucker and the greatest works of the libertarian tradition. Tune in this week for his review of Henry Hazlitt's The Way to Will Power: Henry Hazlitt’s The Way to Will Power, written in 1922, is a splendid as a manual for the management of personal life. It’s extraordinary to think that Hazlitt not only wrote the best-selling economics text of all time but also wrote a fantastic book on how to manage one’s life with expertise and success. It is a lucid and entertaining book on psychology, applying common sense to discussions of will, self-confidence, and desires. He applies economic concepts of value-scales, and choice among values or desires. He offers a valuable early critique of psychoanalysis.

• Jeffrey Tucker – Liberty Classics: Socialism
  Everyone's favorite Chief Liberty Officer, Jeffrey Tucker, is back for another dose of Liberty Classics. This week, he's chatting about Ludwig von Mises's great work, Socialism. This book is a legendary classic. This is not a book for the shelves. It is a book to read and engage right now, right where you are. It is a book that explains vast amounts of the reality we are living right now. It was written in 1922, but it works as a decoder to today’s headlines. How can that be? Most people assume that socialism has somehow been defeated. Not so. It has spread out all over the world in different forms. Mises’s book addresses every conceivable form of the socialist idea. He shows you how to find the errors in Obamacare, QE3, the education bubble, the U.S. imperial wars, environmentalism, and so much more. There are insights on every page.
• Liberty Classics: Against Intellectual Property
  In this episode of Liberty Classics, Jeffrey Tucker and Stephan Kinsella discuss Against Intellectual Property. "Mises had warned against patents, and Rothbard did too. But Kinsella goes much further to argue that the very existence of patents are contrary to a free market, and adds in here copyrights and trademarks too. They all use the state to create artificial scarcities of non-scarce goods and employ coercion in a way that is contrary to property rights and the freedom of contract." For more by Jeffrey Tucker, check out his book, 25 Life-Changing Classics. Make sure you also check out Stephan Kinsella's Liberty.me guide, Do Business Without Intellectual Property!
• Liberty Classics: Resist Not Evil by Clarence Darrow
  This remarkable book is the most comprehensive, sweeping, compelling, and unsettling case ever penned against what is laughingly called the "criminal justice" system. It is a classic, devastating at its core, that is made newly available to speak to us in our times in which the state is completely out of control. Clarence Darrow is best known today as the Chicago lawyer who defended John T. Scopes in the Scopes Monkey Trial in 1925. But that case actually played a minor role in his life. He was an attorney by training who, from experience, learned that the entire state apparatus of courts, trials, and prisons was the worst single feature of the state. He saw the entire machinery as a gigantic fraud, a purveyor of injustice, a producer of criminality itself, as has noted by many in the legal treatment of the Eric Garner murder. Join Jeffrey Tucker on December 28th at 8pm EST for this session in our Liberty Classics series. Jeffrey Tucker will guide you, week by week, through 25 of the most important works in the classical liberal and libertarian tradition, all of which are available free with your subscription to Liberty.me!
• Liberty Classics: Essentials of Economics by Faustino Ballvé
  The enduring power of this book is due to the enduring power of economic logic. If it is done well, it applies in all times and places. And this book does economics extremely well. In times when economics is subject to vast political manipulation, when people have abused the science to push political agendas contrary to everything economics stands for, this book stands out as a clear, objective, and rational statement of the core of what economics teaches. Join us Sunday, December 14th at 8pm EST for Liberty Classics, as Jeffrey Tucker guides you, week by week, through 25 of the most important works in the classical liberal and libertarian tradition, all of which are available free with your subscription to Liberty.me!

• Liberty Classics: The Rise and Fall of Society by Frank Chodorov
  It might be the greatest book you have never heard of. It is a full-scale manifesto of political economy, one that follows a systematic pattern of exposition but which never slows or sags from beginning to end. The book is not a difficult read in any sense, but there is so much wisdom in its pages that it cannot possibly be fully absorbed in one reading. It covers economic theory, ancient history, political theory, American history, social theory and political reality and has so many asides and pithy statements that you find yourself absolutely stopping as you read: I must reflect on this; I must remember this. Join Jeffrey Tucker as he discusses this liberty classic Sunday, November 23rd at 8pm ET!
• Liberty Classics: The Politics of Obedience by Étienne de La Boétie
  Why does the state have power and why does it persist? Renaissance philosopher and public intellectual Étienne de La Boétie explained that it is due to public tolerance. Despite all the coercion used by the government, it is the deference of the people toward public authority that gives tyrants their power.

• Liberty Classics: The Art of Being Free by Wendy McElroy
  Can we live full, free, and prosperous lives in these times, starting now? McElroy says that we can and we must. She presents a new way of thinking about how to build civilization even when it is so under attack. In her view, the worst mistake we can make is to allow our lives to be consumed by politics and the awful realities that surround us. We must instead surround ourselves by people and things we truly love. The best way to fight back, she says, is to find and build freedom for ourselves. We must discover the art of being free.

• Liberty Classics: Economics of Illusion by L. Albert Hahn
  L. Albert Hahn's 1949 book, The Economics of Illusion, was a blistering attack on the Keynesian paradigm which then dominated academia. A prominent German banker and economist, Hahn immigrated to the U.S. from Germany in 1940 as World War II threatened to expand. As Hahn was a former Keynesian himself, he possessed a keen understanding of the true perils of that system, particularly during war, and sought to tear it down from its foundations.

Join Jeffrey Tucker to discuss this controversial liberty classic Sunday, September 28th at 8pm ET!
• Liberty Classics: The Use of Knowledge in Society by F.A. Hayek
  Knowledge is a good, perhaps the most important good, something vastly more important than all physical property combined. It is the driving force of history, the immortal, sharable, reproducible, malleable substance that has built our world and makes possible the forward motion of history. This essay shows why it is not possible for this knowledge to be produced or used by centralized agents in the civic order; rather, knowledge must be generated, extracted, and put to use by real actors using real property and interacting with the world around them. Social complexity grows organically from experience of time and place, and this can never be produced from the outside regardless of the supposed intelligence of the the planning class. Tune in to Liberty.me LIVE Sunday, September 21st at 8pm EDT to join Jeffrey Tucker in exploring this brilliant essay.

Hayek argues in this book written in 1974. Join Jeffrey Tucker for a discussion of this book, and of current innovations in monetary denationalization, June 6th at 8pm EDT!
• Liberty Classics: Resist Not Evil by Clarence Darrow
  This remarkable book is the most comprehensive, sweeping, compelling, and unsettling case ever penned against what is laughingly called the criminal-justice system. It is a classic, devastating at its core, that is made newly available to speak to us in our times in which the state is completely out of control. Clarence Darrow is best known today as the Chicago lawyer who defended John T. Scopes in the Scopes Monkey Trial in 1925. But that case actually played a minor role in his life. He was an attorney by training who, from experience, learned that the entire state apparatus of courts, trials, and prisons was the worst single feature of the state. He saw the entire machinery as a gigantic fraud, a purveyor of injustice, a producer of criminality itself. Join Jeffrey Tucker on May 25th at 8pm EST for this session in our Liberty Classics series. Jeffrey Tucker will guide you, week by week, through 25 of the most important works in the classical liberal and libertarian tradition, all of which are available free with your subscription to Liberty.me!
