Thanks for the advice, I'll be sure not to Americanise the group.

Arisippus: I've asked around, and there doesn't seem to be any Austrian economics academics in Australia... there are however many Free Market academics.

Which University do you frequent? - Or if you're in the business world, would you be interested in doing a course? [CIS]

I live in Melbourne but I'd be willing to help if possible. Do you know if there are Austrian academics in Australia? Sudha Shenoy was at the University of Newcastle, but she passed away a couple of years ago.

Don't market it as an American thing, that's for sure: Aussies are cynical and hostile to ideas if they perceive them to be American.

Starting Libertarian Societies at Universities in Sydney, Australia

Good Morning,

I'm a student at Macquarie University, who has just started The Libertarian Society.

I'm also helping a friend of mine start a Libertarian Society at The University of New South Wales.

Do you have any advice on how to gain numbers and start up the libertarian movement in Australia?

Thanks and all the best,

Samuel Marks
