Although Rand was often dismissed as a lightweight popularizer, her works of radical individualism advanced bold arguments about the moral status of capitalism, and thus touched upon a core issue of conservative identity. Because Rand represented such a forthright pro-capitalist position, her career highlights the shifting fortunes of capitalism on the right. In the 1940s, she was an inspiration to those who struggled against the New Deal and hoped to bring about a new, market- friendly political order.

  • Rose Wilder Lane, Isabel Paterson E Ayn Rand1
    Rose Wilder Lane, Isabel Paterson e Ayn Rand1 Jim Powell Tradução: Carlota Pignatelli Garcia Pedro Almeida Jorge Introdução No início dos anos 40 do século passado, a liberdade encontrava-se em total retrocesso. Tiranos oprimiam e ameaçavam as populações em todos os continentes. Intelectuais ocidentais encobriam assassinos em massa como Josef Estaline, e governos ocidentais expandiam o seu poder por meio do planeamento central ao estilo soviético. Cinquenta milhões de pessoas foram mortas na guerra que deflagrava na Europa, em África e na Ásia, e os Estados Unidos, aparentemente a última esperança de liberdade, envolveram-se no conflito. Autores americanos conhecidos que defendessem a liberdade eram uma espécie em vias de extinção. H.L. Mencken tinha-se afastado da política para escrever as suas memórias, enquanto outros como Albert Jay Nock e Garet Garrett se atolavam em pessimismo. Nesta pior das épocas, três mulheres arrojadas recusaram o medo. Ousaram declarar que o coletivismo era maligno. Defenderam os direitos naturais, a única filosofia que oferecia a base moral para a oposição a toda e qualquer tirania. Perspetivaram um futuro em que se pudesse novamente ser livre. Expressaram um otimismo vibrante, que viria a inspirar milhões. Todas elas eram forasteiras que transcenderam proveniências difíceis. Duas eram imigrantes. Uma nasceu em território fronteiriço, que ainda não fazia parte dos Estados Unidos. Debateram-se por fazer dinheiro enquanto escritoras, em mercados comerciais dominados por adversários ideológicos. Todas elas ficaram pobres em algum momento 1 Publicado originalmente como “Rose Wilder Lane, Isabel Paterson, and Ayn Rand: Three Women Who Inspired the Modern Libertarian Movement”, 1996.

  • Debunking Myths of the Great Depression
    April 17, 2012 Debunking Myths of the Great Depression The current economic crisis is often compared to the Great Depression which lasted from 1929 until the early 1940s. From the causes to the policy responses, there are striking similarities between the two economic meltdowns. Unfortunately, the typical high school history teacher continues to perpetuate myths about the Great Depression. Learning the real story of the worst economic crisis in U.S. history is important to stop it from happening again. Listed below are rebuttals to five common myths about the Great Depression. 1. Free Market Capitalism Caused the Great Depression. Most of us probably learned that “unfettered” and “unregulated” capitalism in the 1920s led to the Great Depression. Some have similarly blamed capitalism for the current economic crisis. But just like today, there was not pure free market capitalism in the 1920s. The Federal Reserve, the central bank of the United States, was created in 1913. Not only did the Federal Reserve fail to prevent the Great Depression but it was primarily responsible for its length and severity. The Federal Reserve controls the money supply and would never exist in a true free market economy. As Murray Rothbard explains in America’s Great Depression, the Federal Reserve creates boom and bust cycles that destabilize the economy.1 The Federal Reserve created an unsustainable boom in the 1920s by lowering interest rates. Rothbard estimated that the money supply had increased by 61.8 percent between 1921 and 1929.2 The inevitable stock market crash was a symptom of the inflationary boom.
