“This is the fiftieth anniversary of one of the most scurrilous incidents in academic publishing. The victim was Ludwig von Mises. The perpetrator was Yale University Press.  This travesty was quite self-conscious. The editor knew exactly what he was doing. He was in control. Mises was not.  This was how establishment liberalism worked in 1963.  Today, ebooks, PDFs, and other technologies have broken the hold of traditional paper-based publishers. You can download the 1949 edition for free. But there was a time when they called the shots. Mises found out just how completely they called the shots at Yale University Press in 1963.”
