Liberty in Review: A Conversation with Todd Zywicki

As part of our “Janus Week” in which we look back on 2023 and forward to 2024, Jonathan Fortier and Todd Zywicki discuss the recent high points for liberty and potential threats on the horizon. Zywicki distinguishes between positive wins and defensive moves as they discuss the election of Milei, the rolling back of Covid restrictions, the Supreme Court’s apparent moves to rein in the administrative state, the checks on DEI and ESG and much more. Zywicki encourages us to think more carefully about simplified mental models that libertarians traditionally used to distinguish between public and private violations of individual freedom, and suggests that we are living through a different era, where these two sectors are both more intertwined, but also a period in which, arguably, both the public and private sectors have extremely significant impacts on liberty.
