Show Notes
In this Freedom Cities episode, Professor Tom W. Bell dives deep into the world of legal innovation and special jurisdictions. A law professor turned legal systems designer, Tom shares his journey from academia to advising real-world projects like the Catawba Digital Economic Zone and Free Society’s forthcoming decentralized city. He explains Ulex—his open-source legal system—and walks us through his proposed “Freedom Cities Act,” a bold legislative framework that could turn underutilized federal lands into hubs of regulatory experimentation and economic vitality. It’s a masterclass in freedom, law, and possibility.
