<html><p>Today's episode begins with a discussion of how border militarization and foreign intervention create a feedback loop of increasing violence and restrictions on freedom.</p><p>We then take those lessons and apply them to the broader question of how we should approach politics and public policy, and the ways our thinking can get tripped up by over-investment in narrow paths to change.</p><p>My guest is Nathan Goodman, a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Economics at New York University. His research focuses on defense and peace economics, self-governance, institutions, and public choice.</p><p><em>ReImagining Liberty is produced by </em><em><a href="https://landryayres.com/" target="_blank">Landry Ayres</a></em><em>.
