About
Mission
Anthem Liberty Foundation promotes the study and public understanding of individual rights, liberty, and capitalism. We conduct research, publish educational articles, maintain a public library and website, and present public seminars, lectures, and workshops on individual rights and capitalism from an Objectivist perspective. Our resources are available to students, scholars, and the general public.
Anthem Liberty Foundation takes its name from Ayn Rand’s novella Anthem (1938). In the story, a collectivist society has erased the word “I”; when its hero rediscovers his own mind, he recovers the concept of individual worth. Anthem is listed in our library under fiction.
Objectivism
Our educational and research activities draw upon Objectivism, the philosophy developed by Ayn Rand, in examining questions of individual rights, political philosophy, and capitalism. We publish for education and research, not for political campaigning.
