    Professor Herbener,

    In lecture 3 on the scope of economics, you make the distinction between the economic versus legal definition of ownership. The distinction makes sense. Would you have a reference where this is discussed further? I looked at both reading materials (including the TOCs for HA and MES) but could not find a specific mention about the economic definition of ownership (as control).

    Thank you. Michel Accad

    Take a look at the book, The Ethics of Liberty, by Murray Rothbard. Here is a review of the book.

    I read it a few years ago and will pull it off my bookshelves. Thank you very much!
