Objectivism 101

By Francois Tremblay

Lesson 7: Three political examples

We conclude the branch of politics with examples of rights applied to concrete political issues, and the conclusion of this course.

Introduction

In this last lesson, we will examine the dynamics of government, and three particular cases seen thru the lens of Objectivist politics : antitrust, airwaves, and patents. We will then conclude this course by recapitulating the basic concepts and deductions we have seen.

Once again, we will use Capitalism : The Unknown Ideal. The cases we will examine are not available in O:PAR. However, it should be easy to follow this lesson.
