A book talk with Jennifer Burns, professor of history at University of Virginia. Introduction by Professor Ray Horton.
Prophet of free market capitalism or scapegoat for its excesses? The ideas of Ayn Rand, bestselling author of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, have been front and center in recent debates over the ...financial crisis. Some blame Rand’s celebration of free markets for the catastrophe, pointing to – among other things – her long relationship with Alan Greenspan; others claim her works provide a compelling case against bank bailouts and the dire consequences sure to follow. University of Virginia history Professor Jennifer Burns, author of the new book Goddess of the Market: Ayn Rand and the American Right (Oxford University Press), discusses these questions and how Rand’s powerful novels have shaped our understanding of capitalism, markets, and the government’s role in the economy.
The American Thinker calls Goddess of the Market “a terrific book -- a serious consideration of Rand's ideas, and her role in the conservative movement of the past three quarters of a century, that is empty of academic jargon and accessible to those unfamiliar with Rand's life or ideas.”
