  • Populism in Latin America and the United States: the Case of the Tea Party Movement*
    riim55:riim55 7/11/11 18:28 Página 163 Revista de Instituciones, Ideas y Mercados Nº 55 | Octubre 2011 | 163-179 | ISSN 1852-5970 POPULISM IN LATIN AMERICA AND THE UNITED STATES: THE CASE OF THE TEA PARTY MOVEMENT* Darío Fernández-Morera** This paper outlines some differences in the conception, inception, and practice of populism in Latin America and the United States, using the concrete example of the Tea Party movement. Underlining these distinctions is the proposition that, just as not all populism is the same, not all populism is necessarily bad from the point of view of the preservation of liberty and the promotion of responsible individuals in a free society. Populists in both Latin America and the United States have shared a mistrust of what they consider intellectual, political, and economic elites –the last two sometimes conflated into the same multimillionaire individual. These elites constitute what a number of commentators, in the case of the United States, have called a new “ruling class.” It includes “government workers,” that is, bureaucrats who for all practical purposes are “lifers,” people whose only job ever has been for the government, who cannot be easily laid off, and who in many cases can retire with generous pensions and health benefits at the ripe old age of 55.1 However, one important distinction between populists in Latin America and the United States resides in their attitudes toward the Republican process and the wealth redistribution political agenda. Populism in Latin America normally presents two fundamental characteristics. One is a “top-down process of political mobilization that either bypasses institutionalized forms of mediation or subordinates them to more * Lecture given at Mont Pelerin Society’s Regional Meeting, organized by Fundación Libertad (Rosario) on the topic “The Populist Challenge to Latin American Liberty”, and held April 17-20, 2011 in Buenos Aires.

Though there is little discussion about it in Republican circles, the current American Energy Paradigm is inconsistent with core conservative values: it does not reflect our respect for human dignity; perpetuating it does not display prudence; maintaining it is often unjust; and its existence accelerates the growth of centralized governmental power and the influence of large corporations. Yet the GOP has largely ignored energy as a focal point for the party, ceding the issue to the Democrats who traditionally link energy policy to climate change.

  • Virtual Takings: the Coming Fifth Amendment Challenge to Net Neutrality Regulation
    \\jciprod01\productn\N\NDL\86-1dr\ndl102.txt unknown Seq: 1 28-MAR-11 14:54 VIRTUAL TAKINGS: THE COMING FIFTH AMENDMENT CHALLENGE TO NET NEUTRALITY REGULATION Daniel A. Lyons* “Net neutrality” refers to the principle that broadband providers should not limit the content and applications available over the Internet. Long a rallying cry of techies and academics, it has become one of the central pillars of the Obama Administration’s telecommunications policy. The Federal Commu- nications Commission’s efforts to regulate the “onramp to the Internet” have attracted significant attention from the telecommunications industry and the academic community, which have debated, among other things, whether the proposed restrictions violate broadband providers’ First Amendment rights. But there is an additional constitutional implication of net neutrality that has not yet been sufficiently addressed in the scholarly literature: the Takings Clause. This Article argues that under the Supreme Court’s Takings Clause juris- prudence, the Commission’s proposed net neutrality rules effect a permanent physical occupation of private broadband networks and therefore take broad- band providers’ property without just compensation. In essence, net neutrality would grant Internet content providers a permanent virtual easement across privately owned broadband networks to deliver content to end-users. It thus would deprive broadband providers of the right to exclude others from their networks—a right that the Court’s takings jurisprudence has repeatedly dubbed “one of the most essential sticks in the bundle of rights that are commonly char- 2011 Daniel A.
