"Public Governance and the Classical-Liberal Perspective" Book Panel

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, we begin the spring semester with a book panel discussion of Public Governance and the Classical-Liberal Perspective written by Paul Dragos Aligica, Peter J. Boettke, and Vlad Tarko. Peter Boettke began the discussion with an overview of the book and the ongoing debate about governance generated by the recent populist and paternalist challenges to democracy and liberalism. Then Eileen Norcross, Vice President of Policy Research at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, and Justin Ross, an Associate Professor at the School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University, Bloomington provide commentary on the book.

Om Podcasten

The Hayek Program Podcast includes audio from lectures, interviews, and discussions of scholars and visitors from the F. A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. The F. A. Hayek Program is devoted to the promotion of teaching and research on the institutional arrangements that are suitable for the support of free and prosperous societies. Implicit in this statement is the presumption that those arrangements are to some extent open to conscious selection, as well as the appreciation that the type of arrangements that are selected within a society can influence significantly the economic, political, and moral character of that society.
