About this episode

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, we'll hear part one of Peter Boettke's interview with David Levy and Sandra Peart on their latest book, "Towards an Economics of Natural Equals." In it, Levy and Peart engage with how the Virginia School's economics of natural equals makes consent critical for policy. The trio addresses the lasting legacy of the Virginia School of Political Economy, asking how economics can recover its political economy roots and prioritize the discussion that makes intelligence in democratic action possible. In addition, they investigate the two ways of doing economics described by James Buchanan and examine the influence of Frank Knight on the Virginia School. CC Music: Twisterium.
