"Anarchy Unbound" Book Panel


Please join us for an upcoming panel discussion featuring Peter T. Leeson, Duncan Black Professor of Law and Economics at George Mason University, and his new book Anarchy Unbound: Why Self-Government Works Better Than You Think hosted by the F.A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics and Economics at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University.


Date:

Thursday, August 28, 2014

 

Time:

2:00 – 3:30 p.m.

 

Location:

George Mason University, Fairfax Campus

Johnson Center Cinema

In this book, Professor Leeson uses rational choice theory to explore the benefits of self-governance. Relying on experience from the past and present, this book provides evidence of anarchy “working” where it is least expected to do so and explains how this is possible. Anarchy Unbound challenges conventional self-governance wisdom by showcasing the incredible ingenuity of private individuals to secure social cooperation without government.

We will be pleased to hear from the author, Peter Leeson, as well as chair, University Professor of Economics and Philosophy at George Mason University Peter Boettke, and commenters, Barak Richman, Edgar P. and Elizabeth C. Bartlett Professor of Law at Duke University, and John Hasnas, Associate Professor in the McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University.
Although the event is free and open to the public, we ask that anyone interested in coming to the event RSVP online.
