I contributed “The Critical Function of Fiercely Independent Journals” to the 50th anniversary issue of Reason Papers. My piece included anecdotes about the academic reception of independent thinkers such as Descartes, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Sartre, and Rand.
The issue also includes:
*Several brief Retrospective pieces, by Fred Miller, Aeon Skoble, Nicholas Capaldi, Doug Rasmussen & Doug Den Uyl, David Kelley, Ed Younkins, and James Stacey Taylor
*A Symposium on David Schmidtz’s Living Together: Inventing Moral Science (2023), with commentaries by Peter Boettke, Neera Badhwar, Jennifer Baker, Mark Pennington, Billy Christmas, Peter de Marneffe, Andrew Jason Cohen, and Harrison Frye and a response essay by David Schmidtz
*A Symposium on Andrew I. Cohen’s Apologies and Moral Repair: Rights, Duties, and Corrective Justice (2020), with commentaries by Bill Wringe, Cindy Holder, Mark LeBar, and Daniel Butt and a response essay by Andrew I. Cohen
