Why Anti-Capitalism?

The Anti-Capitalistic Mentality, by Ludwig von Mises. 114 pp. Princeton, N.J.: D. Van Nostrand Company. $3.75

Economic science and common sense have demonstrated time and again the superiority of unhampered capitalism over all other economic systems, yet the triumph of collectivist ideas and policies remains the major fact of our century. Why? Why are people giving up the high living standards and individual liberty, those corollaries of laissez-faire capitalism? Professor Ludwig von Mises—one of the great economists of our age—here breaks new ground in probing the answers to this question.
