A couple of weeks ago, ARI executive chairman Yaron Brook was interviewed on Wall Street Journal’s Opinion Journal on the merits of “Trumpian Nationalism.”
In this episode, Yaron Brook discusses what Trump’s victory suggests about a significant proportion of the American public and what it, in turn, tells us about America’s future.
What is ARI’s distinct view on foreign policy? Does the U.S. suffer from a “self-esteem” problem? What is the nature of the threat of Islamic totalitarianism? Is Iraq a “military failure”?

These are some of the questions that Elan Journo covers during his interview on The Federalist Radio Hour.
Today, September 14, you are invited to join Elan Journo, ARI director of Policy Research, and Steve Simpson, ARI director of Legal Studies, as they discuss freedom, American values, their new books and ARI’s ongoing efforts to promote a more rational culture.

In this talk, ARI fellow and Equal Is Unfair co-author Don Watkins explains how to understand and win the inequality debate — and how to restore America as the land of opportunity and revive the American Dream as an ideal.
On April 6, The Blaze published an all-new op-ed by Don Watkins, in which he argues that the ideal of “equality of opportunity” is undesirable, as it would, among other things, mean: “[A]n unprecedented program of wealth redistribution, sapping affluent parents of every honestly earned dollar they’ve made so long as it could be used to give their child a “head start” in life.”
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev recently told a group of leaders from rural settlements that when it comes to food technology, he will be calling the shots. Sneering at the success of biotechnology in America, he declared his decision that farmers and consumers will not be able to import or grow the most technologically advanced crops.
