Kirzner to speak at Beloit
Israel Kirzner will be in residence at Beloit College, just up the road from Rockford College, this coming semester in October. He will be there as part of Beloit’s Upton Scholars Series.
Kirzner is one of the pioneers in the study of entrepreneurship. His key works are Competition and Entrepreneurship (1973), Perception, Opportunity and Profit (1979), and The Meaning of the Market Process (1992).
Side note: Historically, Beloit is the brother college to Rockford, both having been founded in the 1840s by the same group of individuals.
Updated time and location information: Kirzner’s main public lecture:

Date: Wednesday, October 27th, 2010
Time: 7:00 pm
