The Freedom Movement
"The Freedom Movement: Its Past, Present, and Future," a new monograph by Atlas Network CEO Brad Lips, examines the evolution of global institutions that are guided by the principles of individual liberty, property rights, limited government, and free markets that are secured by the rule of law."The freedom movement exists because of a shared, firmly-held belief that communities depend on a set of principles-the presumption of liberty, well-defined and secure property, and the rule of law-to achieve and sustain peace, prosperity, and civility," writes Lips.In the years after World War II, Atlas Network founder Antony Fisher was inspired by the advice of economist Friedrich Hayek to establish...
Finding New Ideas in Old Ones
The rebirth of classical liberalism after World War II owes a great debt to Leonard Liggio as a thought leader and movement builder. For ten years, the Liggio Lecture Series at Atlas Network energized new audiences with challenging ideas, surprising historical insights, and reflections on the virtues that made Leonard a quiet but effective force for good in the world. Brad Lips has edited this collection to help readers discover new ideas in old ones, via thought-provoking contributions by Randy Barnett, Peter Boettke, Gabriel Calzada Alvarez, Lenore Ealy, Douglas Ginsburg, James Ottesson, David Schmidtz, John Tomasi, and Lawrence White, with a Preface by Tom G. Palmer.
Liberalism and the Free Society in 2021
In 2021, the world is emerging from an extraordinary health crisis. It now confronts an extraordinary freedom crisis. Brad Lips's Liberalism and the Free Society 2021 takes a sober look at how institutions of liberal democracy are now tested - in the U.S. and worldwide - by lockdowns, cronyism, cancel culture, and more. Exploring trends from the Global Index of Economic Mentality and drawing insights from an international network of experts and activists, Liberalism and the Free Society 2021 offers readers a deeper understanding of the fragility of freedom's future. Importantly, the book also shares reasons for hope as well as a path forward for building a larger coalition around the timeless values that sustain free societies.
