The collapse of socialism across Eastern Europe - as manifested
most dramatically by the events of the forever memorable November
9, 1989, when the Germans of East and West reunited, moved and
overjoyed, on top of the Berlin Wall - has added more support and
urgency to the central thesis of this volume than I had ever hoped
for. Whether the following studies deal with economic topics, such
as employment, interest, money, banking, business cycles, taxes,
public goods, or growth; with philosophical problems as the
foundations of know ledge, and of economics and ethics in
particular; or the reconstruction and theoretical explanation of
historical and sociological phenomena such as exploitation, the
rise and fall of civilizations, international politics, war,
imperialism, and the role of ideas and ideological movements in the
course of social evolution - each ultimately contributes to but one
conclusion: The right to private property is an indisputably valid,
absolute principle of ethics and the basis for continuous 'optimal'
economic progress. To rise from the ruins of socialism and overcome
the stagnation of the Western welfare states, nothing will suffice
but the uncompromizing privatization of all socialized, that is,
government, property and the establishment of a contractual society
based on the recognition of the absoluteness of private property
rights. *** In writing the following studies I received help from
many sides. Special thanks go to my wife Margaret, who again took
on the task of de Germanizing my English; to Llewellyn H."
