Exploring Economic Sociology — Peter Boettke & Christopher Coyne

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, we begin a series on topics in economic sociology hosted by Peter Boettke. He is joined in this episode by Christopher Coyne as they discuss issues surrounding the knowledge problem and its application to foreign and domestic interventions. Later in the podcast, they also address challenges that classical liberals still face regarding the role of government and the conditions necessary for a society of free individuals.

Om Podcasten

The Hayek Program Podcast includes audio from lectures, interviews, and discussions of scholars and visitors from the F. A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. The F. A. Hayek Program is devoted to the promotion of teaching and research on the institutional arrangements that are suitable for the support of free and prosperous societies. Implicit in this statement is the presumption that those arrangements are to some extent open to conscious selection, as well as the appreciation that the type of arrangements that are selected within a society can influence significantly the economic, political, and moral character of that society.
