Audio from the Tocqueville Forum’s two-day event at Georgetown University on the “Red Tory” ideas of Philip Blond is now online. Red Toryism is a cousin to Ordoliberalism and the economic thought of Wilhelm Roepke, and perhaps a grandchild of Chesterton and Belloc’s Distributism — though all that makes it sound more old-fashioned than Blond’s work actually is. Blond’s talk is online here; the panel on which Rod Dreher, Ross Douthat, and I discussed Red Toryism is here, and the subsequent panel featuring John Millbank, Andrew Abela, and Charles Mathewes is here.

Mr. McCarthy, I was at the event, and I thought your response was perhaps the best. Very nicely done!
