My Intellectual Role Model

Virgil Storr is my intellectual role model.  Our conversations have ranged from debates about indifference analysis to social constructionism; and from Misesian apriorism to Weberian social action.

A little known fact about Dr. Storr is that he is the original Piratologist.  His work is stretching the boundary of spontaneous order thinking and research with the inclusion of Habermasian communicative action and perverse emergent orders.  Also, I have read nearly all of his work, and I do not recall Dr. Storr using the same literature review more than once!

Given his broad ranging scholarship, his post-Katrina research, and the gargantuan amount of reading he does (and has done), I am proud to state that V. Storr is not only my intellectual role model, but a friend.

  1. Virgil’s piratological commentary on Peter Leeson’s piratology will appear in a forthcoming issue of the Review of Austrian Economics, as well.

  2. Thanks, I’m looking forward to it.
