Looking for a New Year’s Resolution?
Why Not Become a Better Advocate of Liberty and Human Well-being!
A New Year for a new decade has arrived—and so has a new issue of The Independent Review, the leading scholarly journal on liberty, human worth and dignity, and the critical analysis of government policy.
 
Begin 2020 by learning more about how market processes and government powers are shaping your life.
 
Our Winter 2019/20 issue features deep insights about the evolution of economics; universal basic income (UBI); and the legacies of Calvin Coolidge, Karl Popper, and the Independent Institute’s own Robert Nelson—and more. A special highlight is Mark Pulliam’s brilliant refutation of the “exploitation of labor” doctrine and other myths, which is why we’ve now posted it on our website—along with reviews of 17 new books.

Full issues of The Independent Review are now available in downloadable eBook format (PDF, EPUB, and MOBI) for just $2.99, or in print format for $12.00!
