Next month my new book, Rollback: Repealing Big Government Before the Coming Fiscal Collapse, will be released. That’s the one I’ll be promoting like crazy. In the meantime, though, I am also editor of this just-released book, Back on the Road to Serfdom: The Resurgence of Statism, published by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute. A bunch of really good essays by top scholars. (Ignore Amazon’s claim that it ships in 1-4 months. It is shipping right now.)
In addition to my introduction, essays include: Brian Domitrovic, “Economic Policy and the Road to Serfdom: The Watershed of 1913”; Carey Roberts, “Hamiltonianism: The Origins of the Modern State”; Per Bylund, “The Modern Welfare State: Leading the Way on the Road to Serfdom”; Antony P. Mueller, “The Origins of the Crisis”; Mark Brandly, “The Dangers of Protectionism”; Dane Stangler, “Entrepreneurship and Government”; Timothy P. Carney, “The Cultural Costs of Corporatism: How Government-Business Collusion Denigrates the Entrepreneur and Rewards the Sycophant”; John Larrivee, “It’s Not the Markets, It’s the Morals: How Excessively Blaming Markets Undermines Civil Society”; Gerard Casey, “Religion, the Market, and the State”; Paul A. Cantor, “The Road to Cultural Serfdom: America’s First Television Czar.” Check it out.
