Dynamism and Its Enemies: Proceedings from the 2024 Austin Symposium


Overview

Papers presented and discussed at the inaugural Civitas symposium on economic dynamism. If we want more people in more places building and creating more good things, what should we do? This volume, edited by Ryan Streeter, presents perspectives on key issues of economic and societal dynamism by Ryan Decker (Federal Reserve), Ed Glaeser (Harvard University), Deirdre McCloskey (University of Illinois at Chicago), Edmund Phelps (Columbia University), Dan Shoag (Case Western Reserve University), and Cass Sunstein (Harvard Law School). The chapters in Dynamism and Its Enemies began as presentations at the 2024 Austin Symposium, a one-day seminar on dynamism in America hosted by the Civitas Institute at the University of Texas at Austin. This first annual event, held in one of America's most dynamic cities, was designed to bring various leading scholars of dynamism's various aspects into one place in order to think together about how to foster a more dynamic future.
