Is the state a natural institution, an organic part of society with necessary functions? Or is it an artificial construct that only exploits society? Or is it something else entirely?
 
Great scholars have contributed to the philosophy of politics since the ancient world, each making a contribution for or against the idea of liberty, an idea that is both ancient and modern.
 
In this week-long seminar, intellectual historian David Gordon explains the thought of all the greats and deals with that of unknowns as well.

Registration is $195 for non-Members. Registration includes daily boxed lunches, refreshment breaks, closing pizza party, transportation between the dorm and the Institute each day, and the use of Mises Institute research libraries and computers.
