Who we are :
The aim of The Institute for Economic Studies Europe is to stand at the center of a worldwide network of students, scholars and other intellectuals. Since 1989, the Institute has aimed at discovering, developing and supporting the most outstanding people it could find among students, scholars and other intellectuals who share an interest in exploring and applying the principles of classical liberalism.
Classical liberalism includes among its principles :
recognition of inalienable individual rights and the dignity and worth of each individual;
protection of those rights through the institution of private property, contracts and the rule of law;
support of the ideal of voluntarism in human relations, including support of the free market mechanism in economic affairs and free movement of goods, ideas and people.
IES-Europe main activities
