Host: Goldwater Institute. Can the conservative “fusionism” that united libertarians and traditionalists in the 20th century survive into the future? Who are the intellectual heirs to Adam Smith, John Stuart Mill, and Milton Friedman? What does it mean to be a conservative in America today? The Goldwater Institute will host a spirited discussion of the conservative movement’s past, present, and future featuring David Boaz, Executive Vice President of the Cato Institute and author of The Politics of Freedom; Mickey Edwards, former Member of Congress and author of Reclaiming Conservatism; and Al Regnery, publisher of The American Spectator and author of Upstream: The Ascendance of American Conservatism.
