    The Case for a 100 Percent Gold Dollar
    by Murray N. Rothbard
    Part 2 of 2

    Rothbard not only argues for the gold standard; he shows how it can be restored in a practical, step-by-step plan. No other system will stop the seemingly endless monetary inflation of the Federal Reserve system. He also makes his strongest case against fractional reserve banking. This essay was written in 1962 and this edition includes Rothbard's sweeping introduction from 1991, in which he argues that the true gold standard is more viable than ever.

    Narrated by Jeff Riggenbach.

    WHAT HAS GOVERNMENT DONE TO OUR MONEY?
    by Murray N. Rothbard
    Part 3 of 3
    The Monetary Breakdown of the West

    Rothbard shows precisely how banks create money out of thin air and how the central bank, backed by government power, allows them to get away with it. He shows how exchange rates and interest rates would work in a true free market. When it comes to describing the end of the gold standard, he is not content to describe the big trends. He names names and ferrets out all the interest groups involved.

    Episode 36 - Economic Depressions: Their Cause and Cure - Murray N. Rothbard - Audiobook

    As announced on our most recent shows, we will be transitioning "the Read Rothbard Podcast" to audiobooks of Murray's books and articles.

    The second post is his "Economic Depressions: Their Cause and Cure" which is a great follow-up to last week's "Anatomy of the State". This gives a cogent understanding of where market-cycles come from, why they occur and how to prevent them.

    The former "Read Rothbard Podcast" where we talk about movies from an anarcho-capitalist perspective will be re-launched as "the Actual Anarchy Podcast".

    More information to come, but here are the details about this book:

    Economic Depressions: Their Cause and Cure
    by Murray 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. Music by Kevin McLeod.
