Description
Ludwig Von Mises's Liberalism: The Classical Tradition is a foundational text in defense of a free society. First published in 1927, it has been a guiding force for a global movement dedicated to liberty for over eight decades. In this work, Mises presents a modern defence of classical liberalism, correcting the errors of the old liberal school by rooting the idea of liberty in private property. He argues that the program of liberalism can be condensed into a single word: property, and that all other demands of liberalism result from this fundamental demand. Mises also explores other key aspects of his philosophy, including political decentralization, separation of church and state, freedom of movement, tolerance, and education. This book provides a thorough examination of the principles of liberal politics, offering insights into issues such as nationalities problems and rationalism as the foundation of liberal order.
