This podcast is the second in the series of joint PRI and Claremont Institute 40th Anniversary Cruise lectures. The theme of the lectures was “The Future of America and the West: Liberty, Sovereignty, and Self-Government. This second lecture, titled “The Past and Future of American Conservatism” was from PRI Fellow and UC Berkeley professor Steve Hayward. He takes the audience through Conservatism’s evolution -- from its beginnings in the pre-World War II era to today, and along the way Prof. Hayward makes some interesting and penetrating observations.
