Dear Friend,
Noble Prize winning economist F.A. Hayek told us that if old truths are to retain their hold on men’s minds, they must be restated in the language and concepts of successive generations.
Scores of Americans weren’t alive to experience the many atrocities of the 20th century that were caused by socialist systems. Because of this, socialist ideas are experiencing a revival in the U.S. and around the world. Proponents claim a more compassionate and positive effect on human flourishing.
But what is the truth?
To answer this question, the Hoover Institution gathered a group of its scholars to study the revival of socialism and current policy debates between socialist factions and their free-market counterparts.
And the results are eye-opening.
From what I’m told, you are someone who would be interested in learning about this phenomenon, and that’s why I’m emailing you today.
Our team recently launched a new online course called Socialism and Free-Market Capitalism: The Revival of Socialism in Current Policy Debates, so you can learn directly from these scholars about their findings. And I want to invite you to take it for FREE as my guest.
Inside these 6 lessons you’ll learn about:
Constitutional safeguards against socialism
False promises of socialism
The effects of overregulation and anti-poverty policies
When you do, you’ll receive Lesson 1 by email within minutes. Subsequent lessons will be emailed to you every 5 days until the course is completed.
With socialism experiencing a revival, it is vital that we revisit its record so we can restate its consequences “in the language and concepts of successive generations.”
With its eminent scholars and world-renowned Library and Archives, the Hoover Institution is a non-partisan, data-driven policy research organization that seeks to improve the human condition by advancing ideas that promote economic prosperity, national security, and democratic governance. Over more than one hundred years, Hoover’s work has directly led to policies that have produced greater freedom, democracy, and opportunity in the United States and around the world.
