The republic of innovation

Freedom as independence from domination rather than absence of constraint, and what that does to growth theory.

Lecture / talkBooks & writersFree

At London School of Economics.

Andrea Lorenzo Capussela argues that the liberal definition of freedom - nobody stopping you - is the wrong one for thinking about economic growth, and that the republican alternative, freedom as not being subject to another's arbitrary power, explains more about who takes risks and who innovates. Quentin Skinner, who has spent a career on exactly that conception of liberty, is among the discussants. Hosted by STICERD.
