| From his years running Dr. Ron Paul’s congressional office to the last half dozen as president of the Mises Institute, Jeff Deist has had to apply the classic lessons of free-market politics to the temporary crises powerful interests exploit to grow government power.
He calls it the “Small Revolution”. Mr. Deist will examine the quiet but inexorable, decentralized revolution gaining momentum in the 21st century, contrasting this trend with sclerotic centralized states and their failures. What is the biggest question of our time is not ideological, but rather the level at which governance takes place. |
Jeff Deist is president of the Mises Institute, where he serves as a writer, public speaker, and advocate for property, markets, and civil society. He previously worked as a longtime advisor and chief of staff to Congressman Ron Paul, for whom he wrote hundreds of articles and speeches. In his years with Dr. Paul he worked with countless grassroots activists and organizations dedicated to reducing the size and scope of government.
