Meta information on the timeline

How the timeline was built

The initial version of the timeline was written by Issa Rice.

Issa likes to work locally and track changes with Git, so the revision history on this wiki only shows changes in bulk. To see more incremental changes, refer to the commit history.

Funding information for this timeline is available.

What the timeline is still missing

  • Mises Institute has a bunch of awards, but it's difficult to include these in a timeline
  • Mises Institute holds a lot of recurring events. Including all of these would be a lot of work, but only including the inaugural events makes it seem like they aren't doing much these days. Is there a sensible way to include some subset?
  • Mises Institute publishes and republished a lot of books and interviews and such. With 656 books listed, it is not sensible to include all these publications, but how should the publications be prioritized for inclusion in the timeline? It's pretty hard to just "look for the ones most talked about" since that requires going through each and searching it up.
    • this interview lists some work; start at "Relate to me what you think the Mises Institute's greatest successes have been".
  • There are a lot of scholars that have been associated with the institute. What is a sensible policy for inclusion? Both in terms of picking whom to include and what to include (first association? official positions? etc.). Mises Institute website's bios seem pretty limited so it's pretty hard to find info even for a single individual.
  • Mises Institute people take certain positions on things, and some of these positions are what they become notorious for. But positions are difficult to order chronologically (what is the actual event?).
