Murray Newton Rothbard (; March 2, 1926 – January 7, 1995) was an American heterodox economist of the Austrian School,〔The following sources identify Rothbard as an economist, philosopher, political theorist, Austrian economist, and movement-builder, among other things: * David Boaz, (Libertarianism – The Struggle Ahead ), originally published at Encyclopedia Britannicablog, April 25, 2007; reprinted at Cato Institute website.

("Revisionism and Libertarianism." ) ''The Libertarian Forum''.〕 and a political theorist whose writings and personal influence played a seminal role in the development of modern libertarianism. Rothbard was the founder and leading theoretician of anarcho-capitalism, a staunch advocate of historical revisionism, and a central figure in the twentieth-century American libertarian movement. He wrote over twenty books on anarchist theory, revisionist history, economics, and other subjects. Rothbard asserted that all services provided by the "monopoly system of the corporate state" could be provided more efficiently by the private sector and wrote that the state is "the organization of robbery systematized and writ large."〔 First published in ''The Cato Journal'', Fall 1981.〕〔Rothbard, Murray. (The Great Society: A Libertarian Critique )〕〔Rothbard, Murray.(The Noble Task of Revisionism )〕〔Rothbard, Murray. (The Fallacy of the 'Public Sector' )〕 He called fractional reserve banking a form of fraud and opposed central banking. He categorically opposed all military, political, and economic interventionism in the affairs of other nations. According to his protégé Hans-Hermann Hoppe, "There would be no anarcho-capitalist movement to speak of without Rothbard." Rothbard was a heterodox economist.〔Powell, Benjamin and Stringham, Peter (September 13, 2010). ("Economics in Defense of Liberty: The Contribution of Murray Rothbard." ) Social Science Research Network. Authors describe Rothbard as a "heterodox political economist" far out of the mainstream, who nonetheless was a charismatic figure who caught the attention and provoked responses from the mainstream.〕〔Hoppe, Hans Hermann (n.d.). ("Austrian Method, Praxeology I." ) Mises.org. Professor Hoppe notes that Rothbard approached economics from a Misesian perspective which, per Hoppe, is regarded as "dogmatic and unscientific" (i.e. heterodox) by all other economists.〕 Economist Jeff Herbener, who calls Rothbard his friend and "intellectual mentor", wrote that Rothbard received "only ostracism" from mainstream academia.〔Herbener, J. (1995). L. Rockwell (Ed.), (''Murray Rothbard, In Memoriam'' ). Auburn, AL: Ludwig von Mises Institute. p.87〕 Rothbard rejected mainstream economic methodologies and instead embraced the praxeology of his most important intellectual precursor, Ludwig von Mises. To promote his economic and political ideas, Rothbard joined Llewellyn H. "Lew" Rockwell, Jr. and Burton Blumert in 1982 to establish the Ludwig von Mises Institute in Alabama. ==Life and work== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Murray Rothbard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
