Our spring 2010 issue of Canadian Student Review explores recent trends in public policy, as well as policy failure of the past.
This issue includes a petition letter written by Tom G. Palmer, Vice-President for International Programs and General Director for Atlas Global Initiative, which examines the recent rise of protectionism and its implications for the future of the global economy. In another article, Fred McMahon looks at the beginnings of the Fraser Institute’s Economic Freedom of the World project. The failure of public housing projects in Atlanta, Georgia, is discussed in an article by Tim Mak, and the possible benefits of introducing a flat tax in Canada are considered in “Things Folks Know.” This issue concludes with an excerpt from a recent “Ask the Professor” discussion about “spontaneous order” and its role in the economy.
