Hayek would probably be the best example of this, also a lot of Steve's work.

Do you think that your research on how to counter misinformation can help inform those who want to counter disinformation campaigns? (e.g. when the KGB started the conspiracy theory that the government created and spread HIV/AIDS)

It's basically a combination of Georgism and Libertarianism. I'm not 100% familiar with Georgist ideas but its pretty much a development form Classical economics. Basically it promotes a tax only on land, based on the idea that land belongs to the community, and therefore use of the land is being rented from that community. The rents then incentivize productive use of land. This then is distributed back to the community as a dividend (this might just be geolibertarianism though, I'm only familiar with its anarchist strain).
