Chatter: Libertarianism and National Security with Katherine Mangu-Ward

Libertarianism doesn’t fit easily on the traditional left-right spectrum of American politics. The philosophy upholds personal liberty as a core value. What does it have to say about matters of foreign policy and national security, which encompass ideas about self-defense but also protection of the state?

Katherine Mangu-Ward sat down with Shane Harris to discuss the libertarian view on war and diplomacy, how it approaches the question of nation-state conflicts, and the differences between libertarianism and the Libertarian Party. Mangu-Ward is the editor-in-chief of Reason magazine, the leading publication on libertarian thought and ideas. She started her journalism career in 2000 as an intern at Reason and later worked at The Weekly Standard and The New York Times. Her writing has also appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and many other publications.

Political philosophers, publications, and novel state concepts discussed in this episode include:

Ayn Rand https://aynrand.org/

Fusionism https://reason.com/2021/02/10/is-there-a-future-for-fusionism/

Friedrich Hayek https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/friedrich-hayek/
