Educational freedom has been controversial for a very long time—by my estimate, the modern educational freedom movement started in 399 BC, when a private tutor was forced to drink hemlock by the equivalent of the local board of education for failing to acknowledge the god of the city and a rather vague charge of “corrupting the youth.”How families choose to educate their children is still the locus of enormously controversial debates.

On March 18, 2025, President Trump dismissed the two remaining Democrat Commissioners at the Federal Trade Commission. This represented a shattering of both tradition and legal precedent. If you asked any Republican member of the FTC what he or she thinks about presidential control over independent agencies, you would likely get the same answer that Mark Meador provided at his confirmation hearing.

Daniel Mahoney’s book is an incisive analysis of ideological thinking and its lasting effects on the West. When, in 1969, I travelled through Afghanistan (this was in the days of good King Zahir Shah, good certainly by comparison with all who came after him), it never occurred to me, callow as I was, that the country might be transformed any time soon into, say, a Scandinavian-style social democracy.

with Daniel J. Mahoney, hosted by James M. Patterson What Solzhenitsyn called “the ideological lie” was not limited to a single country, government, or movement. And it did not, unfortunately, die off in 1989.

Ptolemaic Egypt is a paradox. The kingdom was founded by Ptolemy, one of Alexander the Great’s generals. It lasted for about three centuries, from 305 to 30 B.C.—roughly the length of the Hellenistic period that followed Alexander’s death in 323 B.C. Its long-term contribution to civilization was enormous.

This fall, celebrity intellectual Ta-Nehisi Coates moved on from demanding reparations for America’s racial sins to comparing Israel with the Jim Crow South. “I don’t think I ever, in my life, felt the glare of racism burn stronger and more intense than in Israel,” Coates writes in his new book, The Message.

January 29, 2025 In thought and action alike, Roger Scruton worked tirelessly to defend freedom in the highest sense of the word. Roger Scruton became himself as a thinker and a man at about the same time, in 1980. That year, he published his third book, his most important political book, The Meaning of Conservatism.

January 22, 2025 Roger Scruton’s philosophical work is nothing if not spiritual. I still recall how Roger Scruton poignantly smiled at me as I left his fabled Sunday Hill Farm a few weeks before he died. We often met there but, on that occasion, I had a particular mission in traveling to Wiltshire. As his literary executor, we were to discuss his legacy in light of his illness.

In the closing sentence of his article for the 2019 Christmas issue of The Spectator, Sir Roger Scruton wrote, “Coming close to death you begin to know what life means, and what it means is gratitude.” He wrote these words as a dying man who believed he was on the road to recovery from cancer. Alas, it was not to be. As Daniel J.
