Overview
In this episode, Dan Hugger speaks with John Pinheiro, director of research at the Acton Institute, about his latest contribution to Law & Liberty, “A Failure of Vision,” a review of legal theorist Robert C. Hockett’s A Republic of Producers. The wide-ranging conversation touches upon the American Republic’s early history, 20th-century interpretations of it, the sorts of lessons that history can teach us, those it cannot, and the trustworthiness of non-historians attempting to do history.
