For this episode, CJ was delighted to be joined by classically trained, award-winning actor Clifton Duncan.

Ep. 0243: Two Cheers for Classical Republicanism (Fun-Size DHP)


CJ took a brief break from slaving away at the next Woodrow Wilson episode to make this Fun-Size DHP episode, talking about a political idea known as ‘classical republicanism,’ which has been on his mind a lot lately, & which he has always found to be interesting & potentially useful. (Think of this as a ‘silver bullet’ DHP episode, just minus the silver bullet & with concurrently better audio quality, because CJ no longer commutes daily an hour each way, so he recorded this one at the home studio. But it’s like a silver bullet episode in that it’s relatively short & is mostly off-the-cuff, with minimal notes.)

Join CJ as he discusses what ‘classical republicanism’ is, some historical manifestations of it in theory & in practice, & some of the ways it differs from modern ‘republics,’ ‘democracies,’ or (heaven forbid) ‘democratic republics.’
