[Leonard Liggio](http://www.leonardliggio.org), who died this week, was an important pillar in the modern libertarian movement and someone who connected modern libertarian ideas with their historical antecedents. I chatted briefly with [Tom G. Palmer](https://www.cato.org/people/tom-palmer) about Liggio’s impact on ideas and libertarianism.

Several of Liggio’s lectures are available at [lib​er​tar​i​an​ism​.org](http://www.libertarianism.org/explore?searchquery=%22Leonard+P.+Liggio%22).
