Hello all!

I recently published my first book, Praxeological Ethics. As the name implies, the book takes the science of Praxeology - as laid out by Ludwig von Mises - and shows how we can understand ethics through applications of Praxeological concepts. I go on to show the implications this has for lots of important ethical questions, such as the Is-Ought Problem, the philosophical basis of moral principles, systems of law, and more. Even if you don't agree with all my conclusions, I can guarantee you will at least find it interesting.

You can find it on Amazon, but there is also a free PDF copy of it in the Austrian Economics Discord Server (DM for server link). Let me know what you guys think of it.

Why are some austrian economists critical of Mises monopoly price thoery despite him never using it to support anti trust law, something that he as far as I know he never supported.

Title question. I am a fan of anarcho-capitalists like Michael Huemer, David Friedman, and Bryan Caplan. I also would like to know your thoughts on Gold standard vs FIAT. By the way, I found this subreddit because of Rob Thorpe and I deeply respect Rob Thorpe.

As far as I can understand (I am a newbie so bear with me), Hayekian side of Austrian School is methodologically more empirical and Hayek made a departure from praxeology. I wanna learn about Hayekian side of school so I would really appreciate some resources to read more, aside from Hayek himself, or explanations about the emprirical side of the Austrian School. I really enjoyed reading some of Hayek's ideas like Spontenous Order and The Use of Knowledge

All my instincts from what I've read are that inflation benefits big banks and the big corporations taking loans from them at the expense of others, but I've run into an econometric argument saying the reverse.

Do you know any good recommended readings on this, ideally with data?

Theory is fine too: I've read Man, Economy, and State, but it's been awhile.

I recently stumbled upon an interesting article that explores the topic of bank failures. Thoughts?

I know there has already been a post on this, but I thought another wouldn't hurt.

It is a badly kept secret that there is a Discord server on Austrian Economics. I know that Discord has a reputation as system only used by gamers. But listen to me for a minute....

Every year the server has a conference. Notable Austrian Economists are invited to present. That will be done using Discord's audio and video conferencing features. This year the conference will be on Sat 7th Jan and Sun 8th Jan.

This year, lots of people who you'll have heard of (if you follow Austrian Econ!) will be speaking. The topic is "Inflation money and the state".

The following economists be speaking:

• Walter Block.
• Deirdre McCloskey.
• Saifedean Ammous.
• Stephan Kinsella.
• Mark Thornton.
• Jonathan Newman.
• Patrick Newman.
• Jeff Deist.

I'm not an organizer of all this. But, I attended last year, and I thought it was great. This year there are many more speaker than last year.

Dates and times: Jan 7th & 8th. Each session will be from 1pm to 4pm EST. This is the server's web address.

Hello all! In this upcoming week, the Austrian Economics Discord is hosting our second annual Austrian Economics Discord Conference! We have a great slate of speakers confirmed for the event, and we will have time set aside for a Q-and-A with each one of them. The conference will be on January 7th and 8th, from 1 PM EST - 4 PM EST each day. You can join the server with the link below, and I hope I'll see you all there!

Howdy all. Me and the folks on the Austrian Economics Discord Server are starting up a book club going through Per Bylund's new primer on Economics, "How to Think About the Economy". Its a great book for anyone unfamiliar with Economics and looking for a place to dive in. If you are interested in joining the book club, or just want to hop in the server to chat with like-minded people, use the link below. Cheers!
