Education and State Influence

The state plays a significant role in shaping educational institutions from early childhood to higher education, often promoting narratives that favor economic interventionism. This influence leads to the indoctrination of students with ideologies that may not align with principles of individual freedom and critical thinking. To counteract this, initiatives like the Mises Institute focus on teaching and promoting Austrian economics, aiming to foster a more accurate understanding of history and economics. Events like 'Educating for Liberty' help further these goals by bringing together experts to engage in discussions about the importance of education in cultivating a free society.
