This paper discusses how 'wars of ideas' can be waged, using the
author's extensive experience, both as director general of the
Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) and at other classical liberal
think tanks. John Blundell begins his stimulating collection of
published essays, reviews and introductions by showing how the
founders of the IEA successfully fought the conventional 'planning'
wisdom of the 1960s and 1970s, providing the ideas which, by the
1980s and 1990s, had brought about increased freedom and a revival
in the use of markets. He draws lessons from those days and then
surveys the contemporary scene, showing how the anti-liberal ideas
emerging now are different from those which prevailed in the early
years of the IEA. As well as giving a valuable view of the IEA's
development in the past, these essays also offer advice on how to
continue winning in the new circumstances of the present. "Waging
the War of ldeas" has been constantly in demand since it was first
published in 2001. This new and expanded edition contains three new
chapters and is introduced by Professor Walter Williams.
