Economic Depressions: Their Cause and Cure
TAGS Booms and BustsBusiness CyclesInterventionism Economic Depressions: Their Cause and Cure JUNE 27, 2012Murray N. Rothbard Murray Rothbard was the master of reducing complicated theories to their very essence while retaining theoretical rigor, and this essay is a case in point. It was originally written in 1969 and published in the form of a tiny book that achieved a huge circulation. Its continued relevance speaks to an aspect of the Austrian theory that other theories can't boast. It is a real theory that applies across time and place, and its persuasive power is not contingent on the particulars of any individual boom bust cycle. Narrated by Harold Fritsche.
