Pete Calcagno visits the Free Market Institute at Texas Tech

Our colleague Pete Calcagno is serving as a Visiting Scholar with the Free Market Institute (FMI) at the Rawls College of Business at Texas Tech University during the 2023-2024 academic year.

He is visiting the Institute while he is on sabbatical this year and working on a new book publication, Deficit as Policy: Widening the Scope of Debt-Financed Spending in the United States, 1792-Present (co-authored with Edward Lopez, Western Carolina University).

He recently made his first of two visits to FMI as a visiting scholar to work on his book manuscript, attend brown bag seminars, present research and lead seminars for Ph.D. fellows.
