On Thursday the 28th of October, Cobden Centre Senior Fellow Jesús Huerta de Soto will be giving this year’s Hayek Lecture at the LSE.
Date: Thursday 28 October 2010
Time: 6.30-8pm
Venue: Sheikh Zayed Theatre, New Academic Building
Speaker: Professor Jesús Huerta de SotoThe current financial and economic situation of the world should be analysed from the point of view of the Austrian Business Cycle Theory as developed by Mises and Hayek. Professor Huerta De Soto will present innovative solutions to the banking crisis and credit crunch working within the tradition of the Austrian School masters, Mises and Hayek. He will also unveil his proposal for similar legislative change that the “Peel Act” or Bank Charter Act of 1844 achieved with regards to the over issue of promissory notes to gold, but with respect to the over issue of credit. The consequences of doing this should create a climate of financial stability and an opportunity to totally restructure the national debt (potentially pay it off).
Jesús Huerta de Soto is professor of political economy at King Juan Carlos University.

Hello, I understood that this speech may have been recorded and due to become available on the internet, is this in fact the case?
If so, I’d very much appreciate a pointer as to where.
Thanks
