Association of Private Enterprise Education (APEE)
This association "is to put into action accurate and objective
understandings of private enterprise. We are committed to teaching and
research in private enterprise. We spur economic understanding through
all media and educational means for the broadest possible public."
They note, "It is easier to blame profits, corporations, or business
people for social problems than to understand their functions in an
increasingly complex, international economy. It is easier to support a
politician's promised quick fix than to suffer the natural workings of
dynamic market systems righting themselves." To this end, they promote
private enterprise education, "particularly in relation to research,
teaching methods, programming, and sources of funding." They use
newsletters, conferences, publications, and other activities. This
site lists their officers (Gordon Tullock is the President for
2000-1), conferences, their awards, an on-line membership enrollment
form, information on their journal, "The Journal of Private
Enterprise," extensive material for teachers, links of related sites,
