In this episode, Gloria Álvarez interviews philosopher Gregory Salmieri and explores some of the issues raised in his book (co-edited with Robert Mayhew) Foundations of a Free Society: Reflections on Ayn Rand’s Political Philosophy. They discuss Ayn Rand’s strong views against anarchism, the nature of free markets and why free markets are impossible under anarchism. Salmieri explains how to be objective about the retaliatory use of force, why revolutions generally result in the establishment of more abusive forms of government, and other interesting topics.
