How Much Does Slovak Family Receive in Benefits?

INESS/August 20, 2019 /Leave a comment

In Slovakia, non-monetary transfers are often forgotten due to the contributions system – this is set up so that only self-employed know, with exaggeration, how expensive it is. Most employees have no idea that the employer pays an additional 35% to their gross wage.

Thomas Volkmann and Liberales Institut/July 31, 2018 /Leave a comment

Perceiving, enforcing, and defending freedom requires character traits which need to be taught and trained. Civic and political education has to empower people not just to recognize and comprehend the complexity of the modern lifeworld, but also to master it.

Does Labor Have a Future?

Jan Oravec and F.A. Hayek Foundation/February 9, 2017August 7, 2017 /Leave a comment

The development of artificial intelligence can bring robotization and automatization not only to sectors where manual work with often repeated actions is needed.
