Basic Reading

A reader has written asking for my suggestions on basic readings in the philosophy of libertarianism. I suggest:

1. Leonard Read's "I, Pencil." To read click here.

2. The Essential Frederic Bastiat available from Liberty Institute and also from the Friedrich Naumann Stiftung.

3. My little primer, Free Your Mind: A Beginner's Guide to Political Economy, available from the Centre for Civil Society.

4. Ken Schooland's The Adventures of Jonathan Gullible: A Free Market Odyssey published in India by Academic Foundation in association with Liberty Institute.

Happy reading!

    You didn't mention that classic: "Economics in One Lesson" by Henry Hazlitt. That is a great intro to the subject and to libertarian ideas.

    Hazlitt's "Economics In One Lesson" is entirely based on Bastiat's "What Is Seen And What Is Not Seen."

    Since the original is very much there in "The Essential Frederic Bastiat," which I recommended, I did not find it necessary to recommend Hazlitt's copy. Of course, it is also a great book. If you get your hands on it, do read it.
