Political Science
Although many scientists cultivate the popular image of the benevolent, detached savant toiling away for the betterment of mankind, the fact remains that Ph.D.s in physics or genetics are subject to the same weaknesses as the rest of us. The image has some currency because there is an element of truth in it: scientists in many fields have contributed in remarkable ways to the material progress of humanity. That contribution should not be underappreciated. Yet scientists are not immune to...
Thoughtful and Reflective Environmentalism
There are two basic errors that entrap discussants on issues related to environmental stewardship. The first error is that of the uncritical activist, who is always ready to embrace whatever faddish innovation or practice the green intelligentsia casts as the latest solution. The problem with this approach is that in it often results in negative unintended consequences. Call this the error of the “early adopter.” On the other extreme is that of the reactive critic, who is only too willing...
Birth of Freedom Shorts Series: How did Christian slave owners justify slavery?
This week’s Birth of Freedom Video Short features Susan Wise Bauer, author of The History of the Ancient World.

Nationalization. Catch the Fever!
Everyone seems to be going ga-ga over nationalization in the US these days, and why not? Heck, it seems to be working pretty well for Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. Blast from the not-so-recent past: Maxine Waters on the domestic oil industry… ...
The Death of ‘Conservatism’
In the wake of the global financial crisis, stories from the pundit class and blogosphere abound proclaiming the imminent death of the conservative movement. This is part of a longer and broader discussion with roots in the post-Reagan era of American politics. (As you’ll see in ments below, I’m not so inclined to think that a move toward particular kinds of populism is necessarily a move away from conservatism.) Writing in the American Conservative earlier this month, Claes G. Ryn...
New Video Short: How Not to Help the Poor
New from Acton Media, this video short titled “How Not to Help the Poor” discusses the root causes of poverty and how even the best of intentions can go wrong in dealing with and trying to help those in need. ...
Is John Wesley’s Economic Advice Sound?
Writing mentary for the United Methodist News Service, J. Richard Peck encourages readers to heed John Wesley’s advice on economic policy. “In short, Wesley called for higher taxes upon the wealthy and laws that would prohibit the wasting of natural products,” says Peck. He notes that the cure for economic troubles relating to the poor was to repress luxury. While some of Wesley’s economc advice is certainly sound, especially his views on the danger of debt, his understanding of basic...
Saving Capitalism
While efforts to explain the financial crisis will continue for years (historians are still debating the causes of the Great Depression, eight decades later), it seems certain that its genesis cannot be fully understood without some recourse to the moral dimension of human action in the economy. Acton mentators—Jonathan Witt, David Milroy, Sam Gregg—have already weighed in on the question. Economists have long deplored the poor savings rate in the United States, arguing that our ever-increasing debt load (national and...
