Introduction

from Mises Media Hosted by Patrick Newman

Patrick Newman defines cronyism as government intervention that benefits special interests at the expense of the public interest, and argues the corporatist state was built in stages over eight decades rather than arriving at once. He explains why his earlier “Liberty versus Power” framework stops applying after 1849: parties no longer divided over liberty and favoritism, only over which special interests they would reward.
