• Paul Claims Constitutionalist Mantle in Presidential Bid

Texas Rep. Ron Paul, who is seeking the 2008 Republican presidential nomination, recently stopped by the Washington, D.C offices of HUMAN EVENTS for an exclusive interview with the editors. Paul discussed a wide range of topics, including his controversial foreign policy and his views on the Iraq War, the Patriot Act, the Supreme Court, cutting government, runaway entitlements and the NAFTA Super-Highway and North American Union. Bush had a good program, a policy of a different foreign policy where we didn't endorse nation building, a humble foreign policy - don't police the world - highly critical of the intervention of Clinton.

• Statist or Constitutionalist ; Which Type of Government Do You Want?

Do we want statist or a constitutionalist government? That is the question that confronts American politics today. What is the difference between them? A constitutionalist wants the limited government that lives by the checks and balances in our Constitution. A statist believes that our Constitution is a "living document" and it can be used to justify the creation of any government program imaginable. Here is an explanation of how we now have a statist government and how we can bring back the constitutional government we once had. A statist's hero is Franklin Delano Roosevelt. A constitutionalist's hero is James Madison. Both men were presidents of the United States. One wrote most of our Constitution. The other threw it away. How did FDR throw away our Constitution? He did so when he c...

• Escaping the Iron Cage: Weber and Hegel On Bureaucracy and Freedom

Based on the assumption that the study of public values cannot neglect the wider purposes of administration in society, this article discusses the diverging views of Weber and Hegel on the relationship between bureaucracy and freedom. They provide interesting Continental-European alternatives to the standard, liberal account so dominant in America. Although their accounts of bureaucracy are superficially similar, their conceptions of freedom radically differ, due to deep divergences in their political philosophies. While Weber has a concept of freedom as existentialist choice on top of classical liberal freedoms, Hegel instead has a more social concept of freedom. While Weber is particularly aware of the danger of Beamtenherrschaft (domination by officials), Hegel offers a constitutiona...

...Hegel offers a more constitutionalist and less politicized account of bureaucracy than W...
