But also, discussions on Austrian philosophy, epistemology, and methodology took place. The presentations recovered the tradition started by Carl Menger and the contributions of his followers and their contributions to current problems were revalued. Attendees had the opportunity to debate with the speakers during the presentations that continued during the breaks.
The first day at OeNB, Kassensaal
by Simon Sarewski
Before lunch we had the opportunity to hear Jeffrey Booth’s keynote speech on our rapidly increasing understanding of economics. Everybody was engulfed by his vision of today and the future. To sum up his talk in one sentence: The future is bright and bitcoin (and crypto in general) are here to grant us freedom, for which the governments and the central banks of the world won’t be able to do much about it.
The climax of the first day was the Hayek Lifetime Achievement Award 2021 presented to Prof. Dr. Veselin Vukotic, the Rector and Founder of University of Donja Gorica – UDG.

Quantitative Easing: A Boon or Curse?
2021-07-24
Central banks’ massive Quantitative Easing (QE) programs have come under scrutiny many times since the central banks fired up the printing press and began quantitative easing programs en masse after the 2008-09 Great Financial Crisis.
