Washington Metro Objectivism Discussion (WMOD) January 18, 1995 Meeting Ed Hudgins on "Making a Free Society" Dr Edward L. Hudgins will speak on "Making a Free Society, or How to Be an Effective Objectivist" at the Wednesday January 18 meeting of WMOD. While Objectivists usually have an unobstructed vision of the kind of society and country they want to live in, they some- times have a less-than-clear understanding of how to get there. Ed will discuss how ideas and societies change, and how activists can be policy entrepreneurs in the fight to make men free by making free men. Ed Hudgins is the Director of Regulatory Studies at the Cato Institute in Washington, DC. He has worked as a Senior Economist for Congressman Dick Armey and as a Policy Director at the Heritage Foundation. Ed has taught at various area universities. He has a BA from the University of Maryland, a Masters from American University, and a Ph.D. in Political Philosophy from Catholic University. When and Where?
