An American Rand
There’s a dialogue going on over at the Corner about the recent “Ayn Rand Revival” we’ve been documenting here. Found this tidbit interesting:
Peter, Like Andrew, I think Rand is a symbol rather than a movement philosopher. Very few of those who mention Adam Smith favorably have read his moral philosophy or considered its implications and Rand is clearly in a similar position.
Who are the movement philosophers? I propose: Rousseau, Montesqieu, Marx . . . who else?
