 | TAS Seminar talks on the Objectivist Movement Posted by Robert Bidinotto on 7/11, 8:36am | |
| Though not pre-planned to do so, a number of stellar TAS/TOC Summer Seminar talks tackled the issue of the divisions and other problems within the Objectivist movement. TAS is in the process of compiling the following talks, and will issue them in several formats, and post them online as well: "Rage and Objectivism" by Barbara Branden. "Mature Objectivism" (excerpts) by Ed Hudgins "Who Is An Objectivist?" by Will Thomas "The Anatomy of Cooperation" by me (Robert Bidinotto) Each of these talks address different aspects of the ugly schisms, denunciations, and emotionalism that has marred the Objectivist movement since NBI days. They supplement and update the case in David Kelley's Contested Legacy of Ayn Rand. But because they focus on the timeless principles involved, they make that case without giving the latest tiny gang of rage-gorged moral poseurs any of the personal attention they so desperately crave. The combined impact of all these talks is simply extraordinary in its depth, insight, and persuasiveness. I am confident that they constitute what will be seen as the definitive case against the sort of nonsense that has become an obsession of too many -- both of the perpetrators, and of those equally obsessed opponents, whose pointless debates with the perpetrators continue to add fuel to the fires. You will see this material on our website very soon, and published soon thereafter in audio and perhaps print formats, as well. I will add links as soon as this material becomes available. | ||
