Conversation with Steve Pejovich DVD (Digital): Steve Pejovich Conversation with Steve Pejovich DVD (Digital)
Steve Pejovich; Contributions by Bill Jersey
R525 Discovery Miles 5 250 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In this interview with Bill Jersey, Pejovich reflects on his experience in economics. With insight and humour, he demonstrates the power that empirical cases can bring to bear on theoretical problems. Born in Belgrade under the tyranny of the Nazis, Pejovich spent his early life subject to the despotism of the Communists, but his life was transformed when he moved to the United States as an adult, where he experienced a government based on ideas of 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness'. In the expansive state of Texas, where he made his new home, Pejovich realised his vision of economic freedom and culture vitality. Pejovich is one of the most dynamic and insightful theorists writing on property rights. Some of his books include "The Economics of Property Rights: Towards a Theory of Comparative Systems" and "Law, Informal Rules, and Economic Performance: The Case for Common Law". Its approximate running time is 52 minutes.

Forrest McDonald; Contributions by Bill Jersey
R525 Discovery Miles 5 250 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Forrest McDonald is considered one of the most original and influential historians writing on the American Founding period. With interviewer Bill Jersey, McDonald shares reflections on his life and examines his intellectual formation in Texas in the 1950s, which led him to write "We The People: Economic Origins of the Constitution". When published, his landmark book challenged the long-standing theory proposed by Charles A Beard. He also exposes the drama of the American cultural turbulence of the 1960s through his experiences at Brown University and Wayne State University. McDonald discloses the motivations and theories behind several of his most celebrated books, including Novus Ordo Seclorum: The Intellectual Origins of the Constitution and E Pluribus Unum: The Formation of the American Republic, 1776-1790, which is published by Liberty Fund. In this DVD Forrest McDonald discusses his radical reinterpretations of Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson, among other founding figures. From his home in Alabama, he speaks about his sense of the nature of the American Republic, the role of the Presidency, the status of the Bill of Rights, the interaction between economics and history, and the effect his reading of history has had on the field and his legacy. Its approximate running time is: 59 minutes.
