INTERN FORUM
Thursday, July 21, 2011
6:30 PM (Reception To Follow)
Featuring Cato Institute Interns and Heritage Foundation Interns; introduction by Chip Bishop, Cato Institute; moderated by David Barnes, Senior Policy Analyst, e21: Economic Policies for the 21st Century.
The Cato Institute
1000 Massachusetts Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20001
Liberty and virtue are values that both conservatives and libertarians tout as components of their philosophies. Historically, disagreements about the definitions of and balance between liberty and virtue have taken a backseat to other, more pressing conflicts. As times have changed, elements of the old "fusionism" alliance have dissolved, and new conflicts have emerged that impose a strain on the formerly functioning, though imperfect, ideological partnership. Recent policy issues have highlighted disagreements in areas such as the war on drugs, national defense, welfare, immigration, marriage, foreign policy, and many others.
We invite you to a timely debate about the two philosophies and their associated policy applications, as interns from the Heritage Foundation and the Cato Institute go head-to-head to answer the perennial question: Which is the better philosophy, libertarianism or conservatism?
