Hans-Hermann Hoppe (/ˈhɒpə/;[4] German: [ˈhɔpə]; born 2 September 1949) is a German-American academic associated with Austrian School economics, anarcho-capitalism, right-wing libertarianism, and opposition to democracy.[5][6][7][8][9] He is professor emeritus of economics at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), senior fellow of the Mises Institute think tank, and the founder and president of the Property and Freedom Society.[10][11]

Hoppe has written extensively in opposition to democracy, notably in his 2001 book Democracy: The God That Failed.[12][13][9] The book favors exclusionary "covenant communities" that are "founded for the purpose of protecting family and kin".[14][15] A section of the book favoring expulsions of democrats and homosexuals from society helped popularize Hoppe on the far-right.[12][16][17]

Hoppe was a protégé of Murray Rothbard, who established him at UNLV, where Hoppe taught from 1986 to 2008.[18][6][5] In 2004, a student's complaint about Hoppe's lecture comments regarding homosexuals and time preference led to an investigation and non-disciplinary letter to Hoppe by UNLV, which was subsequently withdrawn after a controversy over academic freedom.[17]

Hoppe founded the Property and Freedom Society in 2006, and he has included white nationalists among speakers at the organization's conferences in Turkey.[19][20][21][12]
