Libertarianism, Germany, Freedom, Economic Policy, Media Influence, Governance, Drones, Technology, Future Predictions, Social Dynamics. Timothy Allen talks with Manuel Barkhau. Manuel is a Software Developer based in Frankfurt Germany. He's been an Austro-Libertarian Anarcho-Capitalist since the Ron Paul presidential campaign in 2008 and a Bitcoiner since 2011. His current focus is growing the libertarian community and awareness of libertarianism in Germany through the German libertarian party "Die Libertären". This episode dives deep into the evolution of political thought in Germany, particularly in the context of the recent COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on civil liberties. The conversation explores the current political landscape, the role of media in shaping public perceptions, and the potential for libertarian ideas to gain traction in a society increasingly wary of centralized power. The dialogue also touches on technological advancements, such as drones and their implications for warfare and civil liberties, and the possibility of a dystopian trajectory if current trends continue.

Special Economic Zones, Odessa, Economic Freedom, Urban Planning, Free Cities, Urbanization, Architecture And Design, Sustainable Cities, Political Freedom, Urban Economist. Timothy Allen talks with Vera Kichanova. Vera Kichanova is the senior economist at the Free Cities Foundation and a policy researcher at Zaha Hadid Architects and King’s College London. Her PhD thesis explores the future of private urban development — from charter cities in emerging economies to start-up nations in neutral waters. Vera’s career has spanned roles including elected Municipal Councillor in Moscow, Editor-in-Chief at the Atlas Network-affiliated publication in Kyiv, and President of the Oxford Hayek Society. On today's show we explore Odessa's historical role as a model for Free Cities and Special Economic Zones, highlighting its rise in the late 18th century as a thriving economic hub due to unique governance and cultural freedoms. Vera discusses why such models are not more widely adopted today, considering competition from cities like Dubai and Singapore and the need for strong economic incentives and community engagement. The conversation also examines how Free Cities can address modern urban challenges, particularly in unstable regions, with Vera expressing optimism about the growing interest in alternative governance models.
