I have presented at academic conferences such as the European Academy of Management, the Southern Economic Association, and the Association of Private Enterprise Education; and have given public talks at Cambridge University, Oxford University, and the London School of Economics.

I am currently developing the following exciting talks:

• Macro Trends – this provides an overview of the global economy and a discussion of current critical uncertainties.
• Macro Models – this integrates ecological concerns wirth standard economics, providing an overview of how macroeconomists model the economy and how those methods and models relate to climate issues.
• The end of ideology – an overview of the great realignment in Western politics and the rise of authoritarian populism

I have also delivered the following lectures many times:

• An Introduction to the Austrian School of Economics – the past, present and future of good economics
• Competition and the market process – why the best form of regulation is competition
• The financial crisis – a look at the incentive and knowledge problems that led to the credit crunch
• Banking reform and sound money – a proposal to liberalise the banking system
• Economic institutions and global prosperity – an overview of the economic policies that are crucial to prosperity
• The transition experience in Eastern Europe – why radical reforms are necessary and the underappreciated role of the oligarchs
