Ronald Reagan

politician · 3 mentions across 2 readings

In this course

Reagan appears here primarily as a historical exemplar of cyberlibertarian ideology—specifically as a politician who echoed Rothbard and Friedman's argument that government is inherently tyrannical, collapsing the distinction between governance and tyranny itself. The readings use Reagan to ground how neoliberal and libertarian thought became embedded in late-20th-century political discourse, enabling the concentration of capital and power that would later shape technological development and AI governance debates.
