Freedom, Economics, Austrian Economics, Free Cities, State Control, Regulation, Agorism, Algorithms, Bitcoin, Decentralization, Internet Frontier, Globalization, Governance.
Timothy Allen talks with Per Bylund.
This episode delves into the philosophical and practical aspects of freedom, exploring how the internet, as a modern frontier, plays a pivotal role in shaping our current socio-political landscape. Per Bylund, an economist known for his work on entrepreneurship and the market process, shares insights into the evolution of the state and the natural inclination towards control, questioning whether true freedom is achievable in a world increasingly dominated by centralized governance.
We discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by decentralization, the potential of free Cities as hubs of innovation, and the role of agorism and Bitcoin in circumventing state control. The conversation also touches on the nature of regulation and the contrasting perspectives on free markets and state intervention.
Enjoy the conversation.
