This collection of Mises's trenchant essays takes its title from his famous post WWII speech, "Planning for Freedom," in which he drew the connection between the openly authoritarian "planning" of Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia, and the earnest but nonetheless dangerous attempts at a "third way" of a "mixed economy."

He warned that, no matter how it was labeled, only a society in which private individuals, and not governments, make the plans, can yield the prosperity and peaceful order for which all people yearn.

In this ebook, you will find that famous speech, along with 12 other eye-opening articles by Ludwig von Mises.
