En esta edición de La Edad de Oro se recuperan las versiones originales de sus ilustraciones. Estamos ante un clásico de la literatura juvenil iberoamericana, una obra por reconquistar.

La historia demuestra que las sociedades que abrazan la libertad alcanzan mayores niveles de prosperidad. La Era Milei revela que el milagro argentino no es una quimera, sino el resultado natural de aplicar principios sólidos y coherentes. Philipp Bagus, destacado exponente de la Escuela Austriaca y discípulo de Jesús Huerta de Soto, ofrece en esta obra una mirada lúcida del presente argentino y una hoja de ruta para el futuro del liberalismo. Más que un análisis de la figura presidencial, este libro es una exploración profunda de los valores que han impulsado el desarrollo de las naciones: la defensa de la propiedad privada, la reducción del Estado y la recuperación de una ética en la economía de mercado. Bagus explica cómo el fenómeno Milei transformó ideas marginales en una fuerza capaz de desafiar el statu quo en América Latina. Con claridad pedagógica, analiza las causas del colapso económico argentino, las estrategias para combatir el estatismo y el impacto cultural del enfoque paleolibertario. Las ideas tienen consecuencias, y esta obra es una poderosa prueba de ello.

Over and over, U.S. government officials and their mainstream media allies called Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine an “unprovoked attack.” The slogan became so overused that people began to ask the obvious question: Why do they protest so much? In Provoked: How Washington Started the New Cold War with Russia and the Catastrophe in Ukraine, Scott Horton explains how since the end of the last Cold War and the fall of the Soviet Union, successive U.S. administrations pressed their advantage against the new Russian Federation to the point that it finally blew up into a full-scale war between Russia and Ukraine. From NATO expansion into Eastern Europe, to “shock therapy” economic policy, the Balkan and Chechen wars, color-coded revolutions, new missile defense systems, assassinations, Russiagate and ultimately the brutal conflict in Ukraine, Provoked shows what really happened and why it did not have to be this way.

En Hacia una Nueva Libertad, Rothbard propone un escape de una vez por todas de los dos principales partidos políticos, las ideologías que adoptan y sus planes centrales para usar el poder estatal contra las personas. . El libertarianismo es la alternativa radical de Rothbard que dice que el poder estatal es impracticable e inmoral y debe ser frenado y finalmente abolido.Para defender su caso, Rothbard despliega todo su sistema de pensamiento: derecho natural, derechos naturales, economía austriaca, historia estadounidense, teoría del estado y más.Es implacable, científico, analítico y moralmente enérgico, un libro que presenta un caso abrumador. De hecho, le dio a todo un movimiento su conciencia intelectual y le valió a Rothbard los títulos de "Sr. Libertario" y "El mayor enemigo vivo del estado".¿Sociedad sin Estado-nación? Rothbard muestra que este es el camino para la paz, la prosperidad, la seguridad y la libertad para todos. En toda la historia de las ideas libertarias, ningún libro ha combinado con más éxito el rigor ideológico, la exposición teórica, la retórica política, la ilustración histórica y la perspicacia estratégica. Rothbard dedicó toda su vida a la investigación y toda su energía intelectual a este proyecto y logró escribir un clásico.El libro es el resultado del único contrato que Rothbard recibió de una editorial comercial convencional. Se le pidió que resumiera todo el credo libertario. Mirando el manuscrito original, que estaba casi completo después de su primer borrador, parece que fue un placer para él escribirlo casi sin esfuerzo. Es impecable, implacable y lleno de vida.No cortó esquinas ni tiró golpes. Apareció en 1973 y creó todo un movimiento que se propuso aplastar el monopolio político.

The Southwyck Mall was the shopping hub in the South Toledo area during the 1980’s and 90’s. Kids visited Hobby Center Toys and Old Towne, families ate at Big Boy, Forum Cafe, Hot Sam’s, and Orange Julius.

Gathering almost 400 vintage images, the original floor map and the history of every store through the 1980’s, author Chris Bores delivers another trip down memory lane with long lost histories of each business unearthed from the early days of Toledo’s historic Southwyck Mall.

Se prometió que Bitcoin, BTC, sería una tecnología liberadora, una alternativa de libre mercado al dinero controlado por el estado. Pero esa promesa se rompió cuando un pequeño grupo de individuos con información privilegiada se hiciera cargo del proyecto y cambiara fundamentalmente su diseño. La verdadera historia de BTC y su diseño original la conocen muy pocas personas debido a años de fuerte censura, ingeniería de redes sociales y estrictos controles de información. La realidad es que BTC ha sido secuestrado y cambiado para peor. Esa es la conclusión innegable de El secuestro de Bitcoin, un libro repleto de historia y verdades incómodas, que descarga una andanada desmitificadora contra las narrativas más populares que rodean a BTC. Roger Ver es el primer inversor del mundo en empresas emergentes de BTC y ha sido un nombre destacado en la industria de las criptomonedas desde su inicio. Sin embargo, como confiesa en la introducción, este libro no es una historia de amor. Es la exposición devastadora de la corrupción, la propaganda y la centralización del poder en BTC.

Zweig, Ph.D., Editor, The Zweig Forecast
