Samuel Gregg: The Economic Crisis and Europe’s Rule of Law Problem

Many will be taken aback by this claim. Isn’t Europe the continent where the very idea of the rule of law was first...
Stopping the Young Business
A Holland, Mich., teenager is being stopped from opening a hotdog cart due to city zoning laws. It’s really disheartening when you consider the fact that this young person was trying to be responsible and work to help his family and build up savings for his future.

I didn’t know these people, but...

Self-Appointed Nannys of the Nanny State

A prime example is the new “libertarian paternalists” (a group that is definitely paternalistic but not very libertarian) who believe that government should attempt to influence the economic choices of affected parties in a way that will make choosers better off. In a review of Robert and Edward Skidelsky’s new...
Calming the Waters
In today’s “On the Square” over at First Things, Leroy Huizenga reflects upon “the technopoly” of our daily lives, where so much of our time is captivated by staring at puter screen, clicking links, reading posts, checking updates, and so on. Huizenga writes, I worry about ing a functional Gnostic, plugged into this new matrix, this new pixelated irreality.
