Richard Wagner and Peter Boettke on James Buchanan and F. A. Hayek

Peter Boettke sits down with Richard Wagner to revisit some of Wagner's works on the theories of James Buchanan, political economy, and fiscal sociology. Wagner discusses his treatment of Buchanan in 'James M. Buchanan and Liberal Political Economy' in comparison to Boettke's treatment of Hayek in 'F. A. Hayek: Economics, Political Economy and Social Philosophy,' and the pair take a peek at Wagner's forthcoming work on macroeconomics. CC Music: Twisterium

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.
