Can liberalism be the basis of a meaningful and fun way of life? Philosopher Alexandre Lefebvre<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/zndTCBNqjlCPK0AK8HNipu2VKZL?domain=t.e2ma.net> delves into this idea with Mark Scott, Vice-Chancellor at the University of Sydney.

Where do you get your values, sensibility, and general vibe from? If you aren't religious and grew up in a Western democracy, the answer is probably liberalism. Ask yourself: are my topline values and commitments to such things as freedom, fairness, tolerance, reciprocity, and irony? Well, that's a liberal package, according to Professor Alexandre Lefebvre.

In this event, Alexandre presents key ideas from his latest book, Liberalism as a Way of Life<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/QRURCD1vlpTjAwMA3iZs1ujunGX?domain=t.e2ma.net> (Princeton University Press, 2024). He expands on the idea of liberalism beyond political ideology, and places it as a public philosophy that combines arguably the two most popular non-fiction topics of our day: the fate and future of liberal democracy, and self-help. Informed in equal parts by philosophy and popular culture, this conversation offers plenty of practical suggestions to unleash your inner liberal.
