Abstract 
This paper briefly describes the unique political economy agenda of Peter 
Boettke and highlights his remarkable inspiration of students . I argue that 
these contributions are not separate or individualized phenomena . They are 
inseparable and intimately connected . The central features of Boettke ’ s 
political economy at once establish the analytical apparatus for generating 
insights into social phenomena of importance to a variety of social science 
disciplines and , together with Boettke ’ s special personal characteristics , 
provide the levers to enable graduate students with diverse interests and 
strengths to make contributions in the political economy program that 
Boettke lays out .

The central features of Boettke ’ s political economy at once establish the analytical apparatus for generating insights into social phenomena of importance to a variety of social science disciplines and , together with Boettke’s special personal characteristics, provide the levers to enable graduate students with diverse interests and strengths to make contributions in the political economy program that Boettke lays out.
