About This Item
Irvington-on-Hudson, NY: The Foundation For Economic Education, Inc., 1961. Book. Illus. by Priscilla C. Houle. Good. Hardcover. Signed by Author(s). The title comes from Mises's description of the reality of central planning and socialism, whether of the national variety (Nazism) or the international variety (communism). Rather than creating an orderly society, attempts at central planning have precisely the opposite effect. By short-circuiting the price mechanism and forcing people into economic lives contrary to their own chosing, central planning destroys the capital base and creates economic randomness that eventually ends by killing prosperity. A nice copy of a scarce title. In good condition with some marginalia on some pages between 18-39. .
