Sobre este episodio
March 28th 2022.What is the case for monarchy? Why are monarchies better at long-term thinking? Why do monarchies outcompete republics in protecting property rights, promoting peace, raising living standards, and protecting the value of money? Would a return to hard money bring back the age of monarchies? We discuss all these questions with HRH Prince Philip of Serbia, who became the first monarch to publicly announce being a bitcoiner. Their conversation touches on the story of the Kara?or?evi? dynasty, the factors that led to communist seizure of power in Yugoslavia, and whether a restoration of monarchy is likely, or desirable. In the Q&A, Prince Philip answers questions on his career in finance, ESG, the European Union and whether other monarchs in Europe could serve as allies in bringing about a return to sound money.ResourcesPrince Philip on TwitterThree-minute Tonight with Ivan Ivanovi? interview highlight here and full appearance (Philip appearance starts from 23:49.)Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution by Antony SuttonPaper by Mauro F Guillén, based on a study of 137 countries, arguing that monarchies provide greater protection of property rights and higher standards of living study than republics.The State in the Third Millennium by Prince Hans Adam of LichtensteinDemocracy – The God That Failed: The Economics and Politics of Monarchy, Democracy, and Natural Order by Hans-Hermann Hoppe.Saifedean’s episode with Tom Nelson whether CO2 the Climate Control Knob? with Tom NelsonSaifedean’s first book, The Bitcoin StandardSaifedean’s second book, The Fiat StandardEnjoyed this episode?
