For NSP 61 we spoke with Christopher Coyne about the economics or warmaking. We also discussed the boomerang effect, pacifism, revolution, and libertarian anarchism.

Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at the Mercatus Center, and the Director of the Initiative for the Study of a Stable Peace (ISSP) through the Hayek Program. He is also a Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute and a Non-resident Fellow at the Quincy Institute. Coyne serves as the Co-Editor of The Review of Austrian Economics and of The Independent Review.
