In this podcast special, Sohrab Ahmari, best-selling author and editor of the New York Post, discusses his most recent book, The Unbroken Thread, with Dr. Robert Koons, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin and Senior Fellow of the Austin Institute. Mr. Ahmari and Dr. Koons specifically discuss Question Nine of the book: What is Freedom For? Mr. Ahmari explains the background for the chapter in the 1978 Harvard commencement speech given by Alexander Solzhenitsyn concerning the shortcomings of the liberal democratic west, and Dr. Koons poses questions concerning the “eclectic” nature of Ahmari’s book and broader political project. We welcome you in joining us for this special and hope it provides some substantial ideas for reflection about the nature of freedom and the state of western politics.
