Cato@Liberty is the official blog of the Cato Institute. Here, Cato scholars quip, comment, and enlighten about the latest headlines and public policy developments.
Each month, Cato Unbound presents an essay on a big-picture topic by one of the world's leading thinkers. The ideas in that essay are then tested by the comments and criticism of equally eminent thinkers, each of whom respond to the month's lead essay and then to one another. The idea is to create a hub for wide-ranging, open-ended conversation, where ideas will be advanced, challenged, and refined in public view. To be sure, there is no shortage these days of online forums for hashing out the issues of the day. At Cato Unbound we try to step back, take a deep breath, and focus on the larger picture.
