Regulation and Economic Liberty

In this thought-provoking session titled "Regulation and Economic Liberty," Robert Lawson (Southern Methodist University and Lead Author of Economic Freedom of the World) and Federico Sturzenegger (Harvard University and Advisor to President Milei) discuss key issues. The session is moderated by Enrique Ghersi.

This talk is part of the Cato Institute conference, “The Rebirth of Liberty in Argentina and Beyond,” held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on June 11–12, 2024, and cosponsored with Libertad y Progreso. The conference brings together prominent classical liberals from around the world to propose ways to limit power, restore the rule of law, and safeguard individual liberty. At a time when many countries are moving away from liberal democracy or strengthening authoritarianism, speakers will discuss the record and relevance of classical liberalism and the importance of Argentina’s reform efforts to Argentina and the world.
