*tips hat*, asks questions

Been lukring about for a couple of months, very nice site indeed and its quite pleasing to be able to find a place to discuss and learn about liberalism (I’ll just call it that because political definitions are such a tedious thing to get through). Anyways just wanted to say hi to everyone, and explain my little problem.

I live in Argentina, your run of the mill Latin American corruption-festival except slightly bit richer (Chile is passing us now though!). Problem is I can’t seem to get ahold of any literature on the subject (not even more mainstream things like Friedman, used as an example, of course). Its all Marx and whatnot. I haven’t checked out university libraries but that wouldn’t solve the problem either as I want my own copies. I was wondering if anyone was in the same situation in some other place and if they managed to get around it somehow (Amazon wants to charge me 30usd shipping per book, no thank you). Any way to access it on the internet somehow (I can’t really stay focused just listening to a voice, I’ve seen the audio files), nor do I want to spend hours infront of the computer.

Well yes anyways, thanks in advance and all that.

I don’t know what specifically you are looking for, but this site has a ton of free downloadable reading material you can peruse. I doubt you’ll find a whole lot of Friedman though, mostly Mises, Hayek and other austrians.

Yeah I used Freidman as a more mainstream example of stuff you find in real life. I’m after the austrians myself.

Right on the home page at the top on that tool bar you can click “Literature” and find a ton of online books and search by author, topic, etc. or you can click “Articles” and browse the past daily articles on the site.

One solution is to download the PDF document and then print it out.

Edit: I would like to add that Book Finder looks promising (http://www.bookfinder.com). Shipping is around $8-10 USD to Argentina.
And to a lesser extent Alibris (http://www.alibris.com/help/shipping#shipintl) Shipping is $12.99 USD for all international orders.

I also recommend the book exchange websites like BookMooch.com, Bookins.com, and others. There might even be a book exchange website for Argentina or South America in particular.
