Marek Tatała: Economic Freedom

“I think that sometimes utopias are good. There were also socialist and communist utopias and I don’t think that they were used for a good purpose.  Actually, many people were killed because of these utopias, but I never heard about someone killed because of a libertarian utopia.”

Marek Tatała: Economic Freedom

This week the podcast is back in Warsaw again and I’m talking with with a Polish gentleman by the name of Marek Tatała.

Marek is the VP of the Economic Freedom Foundation which is a Polish grant giving organisation in a similar vein to Atlas Network.  Alongside funding relevant projects, they also work on advocacy and political lobbying, believing in any way that bridges can be built to help integrate free market and classical liberal ideals into general society.

Our discussion revolves around the work of the foundation and we touch upon many related subjects including the decentralisation of nation states, Polish political trends, global free market success stories and whether or not membership to the EU is a net benefit or not.

Enjoy the conversation.
