Commentary 

Each century presents its unique set of problems for lovers of freedom, peace, and prosperity. While the great vanguards of liberty in the 20th century dealt with the looming shadow of centralization and were engaged in a battle against socialists and statists who argued for centralization and adjudication of individual liberty for the sake of universal material opulence, free markets with the fall of the curtain on the 20th century have definitely shown that universal material opulence is only compatible with individual economic freedom and liberty.

An economics and a libertarian scholar with research interests in capital theory, monetary theory, and business cycles, Vibhu Vikramaditya writes about events in the economy from a legal and economic standpoint with a proliberty outlook and believes that safeguarding the liberty and rights of each individual is the most important act toward peace, prosperity, and growth. His other works can be found at the Austrian Economics Center, the Libertarian Institute, and BeingLibertarian.com. He can be reached at [email protected] and on Twitter @vibhu3333
