I would highly recommend Sowell's book to anyone who's interested in gaining a better understanding of the intellectual conservative argument. As a liberal-leaning individual, I rarely get a real take on conservative ideology. I wouldn't say Sowell flipped my perspective, but he certainly allowed me to understand and appreciate the value and sincerity of conservatism beyond the hackneyed hot-takes that flood cable news on both sides of the aisle.
Thomas Sowell is in my opinion one of the most important intellectuals of the XXth century.He would probably cringe at my assertion, as in this and other books he places severe limits on the "value" of most "intelectual" output. Or more accuratelly, on the value that intellectuals have had on society.Sowell builds his argument from a simple premise: most political and economic discussions arise from inherently contrasting views on "the nature of man". One the one hand, the "unconstrained" view assigns great weight to reason, and assumes that concern for others can be an important factor fort the funcioning of society.In contrast with the above, the "constrained" view places emphasis on evolutive learning (individual and social), and is sceptical as regards to altruism and related behavior.Sowell discussed at lenght the history of these views in economic and political thought, and their impact for understanding the functioning of socienty. His approach is (in my opinion) quite objective, frequently quoting paragraphs from authors of both camps.Interesting to me is the discussion of marxism, that in constrast to socialism or "social democracy" follows a constrained version of human history, only to be repaced by the "unconstrained" when the ideal comunist state is achieved. In this sense, it is sometimes easier to debate with a died-in the-wool marxist, than with a more ambiguous and " wooly" social democrat.Sowell builds upon and effectivelly uses the insights derived from Adam Smith's book, as well as Hayek's article on the use of knowledge in society. New and fresh insights are derived.Sowell also draws on Burke's work on political processes. Indeed, an important strength of his book is his deep undertanding not only of economics, but of political science and law. The term "political economist" is a natural one to label Thomas Sowell.This is a highly important book. I would say "indispensable", although the author would surely object to this probably dogmatic assertion.
I've read most of Sowell's work, but this is a favorite. The author presents his views in an unbiased way; straight forward. As we consider the debates between conservative and progressive policies today, this work always seems to ring true. The views as they are presented will tend to cause your mind to go off on a tangent searching for an application in your own past experience, which can make for some distracted and slow reading, but the language is not difficult, even for the less than scholarly reader. If a person would like to better understand and codify their own views on policy and societal matters, this a great place to start.
I am a college professor. For anyone, either liberal or conservative, this is the classic work that explains the basis of our thinking. It is a far cry from the insults and name calling of today, rather a look at the "great debate" of man's nature and the consequences of each view. I felt like I was sitting as a student at the feet of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. It is one of the best and most readable works on this subject that has appeared in decades.
I'm coming late to this book which was published in 2007. I would recommend it to anyone weary of the interminable left/right debates in the culture wars that never seem to go anywhere. Sowell is a conservative associated with the Hoover Institute but this is not a partisan book. Rather it is a book about partisanship and the author goes behind the common arguments on social/cultural/economic issues put forth by the left and right to their origins in a persons world view of "vision." Thus it is a penetrating exposition of why we talk past each other all the time. Though Sowell is a conservative he never betrays his bias for one view vs. the other in this very even handed treatment. I have only two complaints about the book. The first is probably my own personal preference but I wish Sowell had connected the two views of humans, constrained and unconstrained, to specific squabbles in the culture wars and traced the first assumptions of each side to them. Second, and this is probably unfair as this was not the intent of the book but I wish he had addressed why us humans come to cleve to one of these visions (or hybrids and variations of them) and not the other and why we cling to these first principles so tenatiously.
One of the most important political economy books ever written in my opinion. Confirms Sowell as one of the great contemporary thinkers. Even handed, deeply perceptive, pregnant with valuable insight on almost every page. An essential work in any philosophy/politics/economics degree. Valuable for anyone anywhere on the political spectrum.
This guy is brilliant.I have to be careful; he presents his analysis so clearly that I find myself simply accepting at face value. Everything he writes seems to be correct. And he does it all in layman's terms.I am a huge fan of Thomas Sowell, everything he does, and I don't understand why his name is not as well known as Friedman and other intellectuals.
I have often wondered why certain issues are conflated in modern U.S. political discourse. There is little or no reason that being for an expanded state role in the economy would be connected to being in favor of restricting the ownership of firearms, and there are exceptions, but that is the way the lines are drawn.In this book, Sowell discusses the ancient division between the constrained and unconstrained views of human nature and of reality and some connections become clear.
