On Monday 1 June at 5pm BST, Students for Liberty UK is honoured to welcome Prof. Ilya Somin, Professor of Law at George Mason University, to discuss his latest book, ‘Free to Move: Foot Voting, Migration and Political Freedom’!
‘Free to Move’, which was published in May by Oxford University Press, discusses how ‘foot voting’ – the ability of individuals to vote with their feet by moving – incentivises better policymaking, perhaps more so than voting by the ballot box. Ilya deconstructs the mechanics and benefits of foot voting in the private sector, in federal systems, and across national jurisdictions. He shows how broadening opportunities for foot voting in all three settings can increase the political liberty of millions across the globe and discusses the kinds of institutions which can best achieve this.
Following his talk, Ilya will welcome questions from our webinar attendees. The webinar will last up to an hour and is co-hosted by the Oxford Hayek Society. Matteo Baccaglini, President of the Oxford Hayek Society, will moderate the webinar.
Everyone is welcome to join the webinar via Zoom or Facebook livestream.
