by Robert Higgs
Higgs argues that the main cause of the growth in the size and scope of government during the past century lies in government’s responses to national “crises” (real or imagined), including economic upheavals and, especially, war. The result is ever-increasing government power, which endures long after each crisis has passed.
by Robert Higgs
What is fundamentally wrong with government today? In Against Leviathan, economist and historian Robert Higgs, offers an unflinching critical analysis of government power. Topics include Social Security, the paternalism of the FDA, the nature of political leadership, civil liberties, and the conduct of the national surveillance state.
by Robert Higgs
A refutation of many popular myths about the Great Depression and New Deal, the World War II economy, and the postwar national-security state that is still so pervasive today.
by Robert Higgs
Exploring the politics and morality that pulled the United States into wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, this collection of essays, stories, and satirical pieces lambasts the highest officials in the executive branch for incompetence and moral blindness.
by Robert Higgs
Robert Higgs illustrates the false trade-off between freedom and security by showing how the U.S. government’s economic and military interventions reduced the civil and economic liberties, prosperity, and genuine security of Americans in the 20th century.
Robert Higgs is Retired Senior Fellow in Political Economy at the Independent Institute, and Founding Editor and former Editor at Large of The Independent Review.
