In this talk, Edward Hudgins, Ph.D. will show how Objectivism is
founded on rational principles.  The Objectivist philosophy complements
healthy Skepticism by offering those who value reason, science and
freedom a complete and coherent morality of rational, responsible
self-interested individualism -- from which overall societal good
emerges inherently. Hudgins will explain how self-interest is essential
for a rational culture fit for humans at their best -- a society that
avoids pre-modern mysticism and post-modern relativism and rejection of
reality. He will also address misconceptions about the Objectivist
philosophy, including the concern of some that Objectivism is a cult.

Dr. Hudgins is executive director of The Objectivist Center and its
Atlas Society (objectivistcenter.org). He was editor of Regulation
magazine and director of regulatory studies at the Cato Institute,
where he pushed books on trade, the Postal Service and space policy. He
also worked for the Joint Economic Committee of Congress and was
director of the Center for International Economic Growth at the
Heritage Foundation. Hudgins has a BA in government and politics from
the University of Maryland , an MA in political theory and history from
American University and a Ph.D. in political philosophy and
international relations at Catholic University of America.
