I’m writing a book about how to properly implement Liberalism. Working title: Mechanisms of Liberty.
My main interest is in economic and governance mechanisms, my secondary interest is education, and I’m also interested in other core LW subjects, like rationality, epistemology, ethics, evolution, and cryptography.
I’m 24yo. I live in Israel. My hobbies include singing, playing guitar and drums, Krav Maga, Dancing (WCS), indoor boulder climbing, Juggling and hiking.
The best essay I wrote is Building Blocks of Politics: An Overview of Selectorate Theory (but my book will be better 😉).
I’m also on Twitter :)
I think I was already doing what this post suggested before it was published, but the distilled phrase was good and I thought about it quite often since.
Where it meets me personally—I’m shocked at how Liberals are dropping the ball on Liberalism. It is incredibly important, and yet Liberals don’t properly understand it and don’t know how to defend it, at a time where it’s under an onslaught by anti-liberals. To be slightly glib, I basically believe that everyone is wrong about Liberalism. I don’t know of anyone who shares my understanding of it. So I’m trying to finally pick up the ball by writing a book about how to fix Liberalism (and actually, a year ago today is exactly when I began writing it).
