Welcome back to the series, Perspectives on Peace, hosted by Chris Coyne. The first four episodes of this series will focus on The Legacy of Robert Higgs (Mercatus Center, 2024) and will feature a collection of short interviews with many of the chapter authors.

This episode focuses on state power, peaceful cooperation, and the regime uncertainty of Robert Higgs, featuring authors Ed Stringham on “Two Paths toward Anarcho-pacifism: Lessons from Christianity and Modern Economics”, and Don Boudreaux on “Regime Uncertainty and Market Uncertainty.” In their conversations, the authors explain their motives for writing and summarize their respective chapters.

  • Edward P. Stringham is the Shelby Cullom Davis Professor of American Business and Economic Enterprise at Trinity College. Ed is an alum of the Mercatus PhD Fellowship.
  • Donald J. Boudreaux is a Senior Fellow at the F.A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University and a Professor of Economics at George Mason University.
