Jörg Guido Hülsmann (born May 18, 1966) is a German economist and one of the leading modern-day proponents of the Austrian School, and was heavily influenced by Ludwig von Mises. He is a professor of economics at the University of Angers in France and is a senior faculty member of the Ludwig von Mises Institute.
Hülsmann has translated several English-language economics books into his native tongue, German. He has written scholarly articles in German, English, and French.
Hülsmann has written primarily on monetary theory and monetary reform issues, advocating a non-inflationary gold standard as the only way to control cyclical inflation caused by excessive bank credit creation and is one of the few economists to have written about the complex inter-relationship between money production and ethics.[1][2][3][4][5]
He also wrote a detailed, comprehensive biography of Ludwig von Mises entitled The Last Knight of Liberalism.[6]
He is an anarcho-capitalist within the tradition of Murray Rothbard.
