ABOUT THE MISES SEMINAR

The Australian Mises Seminar is an event that brings together respected economists, political philosophers and supporters from around the world for a weekend of principled, fun and lively liberty related discussion.

Named in honour of Ludwig von Mises, perhaps the most gifted economist and philosopher of the 20th century. Mises was a prolific author who spawned a global movement dedicated to carrying on his tradition. One of his students, F.A. Hayek, went on to receive the Nobel Prize in Economics. Another of his students, Murray Rothbard, extended Mises’ ideas and founded what is now the modern libertarian movement.

The spirit of the seminar is best encapsulated by Mises' lifelong motto taken from Virgil's Aeneid: "Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito" — 'Do not give in to evil, but proceed ever more boldly against it'.

We look forward to you joining the rest of the remnant at our next event.
