Two authors popular with South Korean readers are leading critics of capitalism and free markets. Last month, we examined Harvard professor Michael Sandel. This month, we turn to Chang Ha-Joon of the University of Cambridge. Aaron McKenzie and Casey Lartigue, Jr., both Visiting Scholars with the Liberty Society, will kick off the discussion with comments about Chang's analysis. Roundtable attendees will then be invited to join the discussion. More details to follow later.

Chosun Monthly magazine [Korean language]

  Chosun Monthly Magazine has made an announcement (in Korean) about the Seoul Honorary Citizenship award that I received on December 9, 2022.  Our Korean staffers say that the magazine is a big deal in South Korea. Here's the overall roundup of media about the award. In the next two months, I have extended interviews coming up in two different magazines, one in the USA and one in South Korea. Both articles will be in respected publications so they should raise awareness of FSI's work that your support makes possible. * * * Support FSI via Stripe or PayPal . https://donate.stripe.com/3cs28F5IAcc85IAaEF or PayPal .
