Power and Market
Encyclopedia
Power and Market: Government and the Economy is a 1970 book by Murray Rothbard
in which he analyzes the negative effects of the various kinds of government
intervention, and denies that the State
is either necessary or useful. It was originally part of his 1962 book Man, Economy, and State
but was removed before publication for various reasons and later published under the above title. It was reunited with the 4th edition of Man, Economy, and State in 2004 in the volume sub-titled "The Scholar's Edition" from the Ludwig von Mises Institute
