Abolishing the Political Class, From Aristotle to Hayek | LSE Event

This event is the formal launch of the Hayek Programme in Economics and Liberal Political Economy at LSE and picks up on themes in Hayek’s writings and that of many thinkers through the ages. It will examine the desire among some members of the public to have a democracy without parties or professional politicians, an idea which has its roots in the ancient world. Jonathan Sumption will first discuss such arguments after which there will be a panel discussion.
