This volume represents some of Rothbard’s most advanced and radical theorizing on topics impacting on human liberty. Appearing first in 1974, this volume, more than any of other, came to build a generation of libertarian scholars that looked beyond the trapping of conventional left-right thinking, and hence laid the groundwork for the current intellectual revolt against centralized social and economic management.

A Humane Economy offers an understandable and compelling explanation of how economies operate. A sweeping and brilliant exposition of market mechanics and moral philosophy, Rpke’s masterwork cuts through the jargon and statistics that make most economic writing so obscure and confusing.
