Richard Russo said, “David Wroblewski’s got storytelling talent to burn and a big, generous heart to go with it.” Please join us as Mr. Wroblewski reads from his remarkable novel and discusses his writing process. Wednesday, July 9th @ 6:00 pm COMMONWEALTH CLUB David Boaz The Politics of Freedom ![]() David Boaz, a key figure in the libertarian movement, surveys what he sees as the threats to freedom from the Bush administration and the current presidential candidates. Though he is frustrated with many of the candidates' positions, he remains optimistic about the future of civil and economic liberties. However, he says that the future of freedom requires that Americans devote considerable effort to preserving and protecting these rights.

Under Vladimir Putin and his sucessor, Dmitry Medvedev, nationalism has grown as well. Is there a return to Soviet-era systems and beliefs? Or has the nation moved into a different paradigm? LeVine says the country is stained by a "culture of death," from assassinations of state critics to possible Kremlin indifference in hostage crises.
