  Ep. 321 | Constitutional Chats Podcast | Dan Mahoney | Madison vs. Marx: The Slippery Slope of Socialism to Authoritarian Rule

  Oct 2, 20261h 2mS1

  Today, we contrast the political philosophies of two of history's most influential thinkers: James Madison and Karl Marx. Their core philosophies could not be more different. Madison believed concentrated government power posed a fundamental threat to liberty. Marx argued against private property and capitalism, arguing both created fundamental inequalities. With the current rise of socialism and Marxism, especially in younger Americans, this conversation could not be more pertinent. To lead this conversation with our student panel, we are honored to welcome Dan Mahoney, Professor Emeritus of Political Science at Assumption University and Senior Research Fellow for the Heritage Foundation's B. Kenneth Simon Center for American Studies.

  Ep. 320 | Constitutional Chats Podcast | Denisa Traboini | From Albania to Freedom: A Firsthand Account of Communist Rule with Denisa Traboini

  Sep 25, 202659 minS1

  Sometimes we take for granted the freedom and liberty we are born with. It is good to be reminded that we should not take our country and its history for granted. One of the best ways we can be reminded to remain grateful is to hear first-hand experiences from those born into oppressive regimes who now get to enjoy America's liberty. Our guest today is one such example. Denisa Traboini was born in communist Albania in 1977 and shares her memories of growing up under that system and how her son gets to enjoy a very different childhood here than what she experienced in Albania.

  Ep. 319 | Constitutional Chats Podcast | Timothy Sandefur | The Constitution vs. Socialism: America's Built-In Safeguards

  Sep 19, 202654 minS1

  Socialism isn't new. Plato's "The Republic" outlines an ideal state with elements of socialism. The Founding Fathers were well aware of the concept and purposefully wrote safeguards against it in our founding documents. Case in point: the Bill of Rights protects private property and Article 1 of the Constitution protects patents and intellectual property. Please join our special guest, Timothy Sandefur, Vice President for Legal Affairs at the Goldwater Institute's Scharf-Norton Center for Constitutional Litigation, and our student panel for this enlightening discussion.

  Ep. 318 | Constitutional Chats Podcast | Shruti Rajagopalan | What Happens When a Country Tries Socialism

  Sep 11, 202658 minS1

  Socialism sounds good in theory — but what does it look like in practice? From centralized economic policies to government control over markets and private enterprise, our guest today explores the real-world consequences of nations that have experimented with socialism — and the promises compared to the results. Dr. Shruti Rajagopalan is a Senior Research Fellow at the Mercatus Center and a Fellow at the Classical Liberal Institute at New York University School of Law and is our guest expert this week.
