Here's a fascinating talk by Peter Klein on the relationship between Man, Economy, State, and teh interwebs, given in 1998 to Mises Institute supporters. It's especially interesting in light of some of the incredible changes in technology and policy we've seen in the last decade or so.

I spoke to the local Campaign for Liberty group last night and wanted to thank everyone who made it an excellent event. It was everything a speaker could want: a large and enthusiastic crowd (they said they counted 72 people, I think), great conversation, and excellent questions peppered with healthy skepticism. My long-run optimism is, perhaps, a bit schizophrenic. We've made a mess of things recently, and I don't think we're making very good policy right now. At the same time, however, there are a lot of ideas on the table that weren't seriously considered even a few years ago. I had a fantastic time, I enjoyed meeting people I had previously only met via email or blog comments, and I learned a lot. It's hard not to be at least a little optimistic when that many people are willing to give up a Monday evening to talk about economics and public policy. Here's a list of reading recommendations and links to articles, podcasts, and videos that you might find interesting; I assembled it for a "Think Globally, Act Locally" panel at Rhodes a few weeks ago and it's sort of a Beta version of an economics education clearinghouse I hope to put together at some point.
