Mainstream economists claim that they can use econometric models to emulate human action and, thus, create an economic laboratory. These models, however, cannot tell us about cause-and-effect, which is vital to understanding praxeology and economic behavior.Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/can-econometric-models-fulfill-role-economic-laboratory

Bob Murphy examines Henry Hazlitt's treatment of inflation in Economics in One Lesson, highlighting key insights on monetary expansion, Cantillon effects, and the distinction between nominal and real variables. The lecture offers a clear, Austrian perspective on why inflation distorts rather than enriches, and why its consequences are uneven and often misunderstood.Recorded at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama, on July 24, 2025.Mises University is the world's leading instructional program in the Austrian School of economics, and is the essential training ground for economists who are looking beyond the mainstream.
Bob Murphy and Jonathan Newman take on the rising popularity of Modern Monetary Theory and explain why it stands in direct opposition to Austrian economics. Using clips from the documentary Finding the Money, they critique MMT's core assumptions, from government spending and deficit myths to the origins of money itself. They offer historical evidence, economic logic, and biting rebuttals to MMT's claims, exposing its flaws and clarifying what's really at stake in today's monetary debates.Recorded at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama, on July 24, 2025.Mises University is the world's leading instructional program in the Austrian School of economics, and is the essential training ground for economists who are looking beyond the mainstream.

A central belief of collectivists is that people think collectively, too. Whether one is a member of a class, religious group, or ethnic group, collectivism holds that each group has distinct interests that determine how individuals in the group think.

In this welcome lecture to the 2025 Rothbard Graduate Seminar, Joseph Salerno dismantles the myth that Murray Rothbard was an outsider to mainstream economics.Drawing on Rothbard's deep academic training and early career, Salerno reveals how Rothbard was a thoroughly trained neoclassical economist before his conversion to Austrian economics. The talk highlights Rothbard's engagement with institutionalism, positivism, and Keynesianism, and how his discovery of Mises and praxeology transformed his outlook, ultimately forging one of the most original and radical economists of the 20th century.Recorded at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama, on Sunday, June 8, 2025.

Bob takes a close look at Oren Cass's recent appearance on Tucker Carlson, where Cass argued for free trade to a skeptical conservative audience. Bob unpacks Cass's arguments about tariffs, comparative advantage, and trade deficits—not to attack, but to clarify. Using classical and Austrian economics, Murphy shows why U.S. economic malaise can't be solved with tariffs, but also why dismissing Cass's concerns outright is a strategic and economic mistake.Oren Cass on The Tucker Carlson Show: Mises.org/HAP501aOren Cass on The Infineo Podcast: Mises.org/HAP501bThe Human Action Podcast Episode on Comparative Advantage: Mises.org/HAP501cOren Cass, "Free Trade's Origin Myth": Mises.org/HAP501dOren Cass, "The Truth About Tariffs": Mises.org/HAP501eThe Mises Institute is giving away 100,000 copies of Murray Rothbard's, What Has Government Done to Our Money?

Why do economists across the spectrum—even Paul Krugman and Karl Marx—support free trade? Mark Thornton explores this surprising consensus. Do tariffs force people to think more like economists, considering long-term ramifications taught by Bastiat and Hazlitt.Is it a true understanding of the Austrian perspective, or just a fleeting moment of clarity? Mark suggests economists often compartmentalize principles, opening the door to conflicting ideologies.Tune in to discover why free trade might be the one issue that forces economists to think straight, and what Austrians can learn from the mainstream.Additional Resources"Why Smart People Are Rightly Confused About Tariffs" (Unanimity, Episode 4): http://mises.org/U4“The Twin Deficits” (Minor Issues, Episode 115): https://mises.org/MI_115"Free Trade in the Twenty-First Century” (Minor Issues, Episode 113): https://mises.org/MI_113"Tariff Increases vs. Tax Cuts" (Minor Issues, Episode 107): https://mises.org/MI_107Join us May 15-17, 2025, at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama, for our Revisionist History of War Conference.
