Liberalism 101: Liberalism and Limited Government

from Neon Liberalism · host Liberal Currents

If you remember anything from high school civics, it's the phrases "separation of powers" and "checks and balances." That separation and those checks are under the greatest attack we've seen in our lifetimes. But why does that matter? How does it affect the character of society? Join Samantha Hancox-Li and guest Robert Black, constitutional scholar and author of "The Evening Constitutional," as we dig into the origins of the concept of limited government, the essential paradox of how limitations on sovereign power are even possible, and what that means for resistance in our fraught era.Robert's newsletter: https://eveningconstitutional.net/
