  "Economic Calculation in the Socialist Commonwealth" is a seminal work by Ludwig von Mises, first published in 1920. In this book, Mises argues that the absence of private ownership of the means of production in a socialist economy inevitably leads to a lack of rational economic calculation, which in turn results in inefficiency, waste, and ultimately the breakdown of the economic system. Mises contends that without private property and market prices determined by supply and demand, socialist planners lack the necessary information to allocate resources efficiently. This inability to accurately assess costs and benefits leads to misallocation and a decline in overall prosperity.

  The Age of Absolutism - Kings...

  The Age of Absolutism was a period in European history marked by the rise of powerful monarchs who sought to centralize authority and rule without interference. Spanning from the late 16th century to the early 19th century, this era saw kings and queens across Europe consolidate power, diminishing the influence of nobles, clergy, and representative bodies. At the heart of absolutism was the belief in the divine right of kings, the idea that monarchs were chosen by God and therefore answerable only to Him. This belief not only justified their rule but also placed them above challenge, reinforcing their ability to govern with near-unlimited power. 
  The roots of absolutism can be traced back to the political turmoil of the late medieval period. Feudalism had weakened, and as centralized states emerged, rulers sought to strengthen their authority. The Protestant Reformation further contributed to this shift, as religious conflicts created instability. Monarchs capitalized on these crises by presenting themselves as the ultimate unifying force within their realms. By controlling the military, bureaucracy, and economy, they ensured that no other institution could rival their power. 
  One of the most famous examples of an absolute monarch was Louis XIV of France, known as the "Sun King." His reign (1643–1715) epitomized absolutism. Louis XIV built the extravagant Palace of Versailles, a symbol of his dominance, and controlled every aspect of government. His declaration, "L'État, c'est moi" (I am the state), reflected his belief in total sovereignty. Similarly, Peter the Great of Russia modernized and expanded his empire, using absolute power to transform Russia into a formidable European force. Other rulers, like Philip II of Spain, Frederick the Great of Prussia, and Maria Theresa of Austria, also embraced absolutist policies to strengthen their nations.

  It is difficult to imagine a more heinous crime than the sexual abuse of children. Yet, terrifyingly, a new case of child sexual abuse is reported every seven minutes. In response to this crisis, self-appointed groups of citizens are fashioning themselves as pedophile hunters." Operating outside the law, these groups use social media to bait and expose those seeking to engage children sexually, both on- and offline. Their work has been remarkably effective, but at what cost? Following four years of unprecedented access to the UK's most prolific team of pedophile hunters, Mark de Rond offers balanced and insightful answers to the perplexing question of why these groups persist in using extreme methods to hold predators to account in view of less harmful alternatives. In doing so, he invites us to consider the societal impacts of pedophile hunters on our laws and institutions, as well as societal cohesion and safety.
