“An Analysis of the Moral Foundations in Ayn Rand”

“God and Advanced Mammon – Can Theological Types Handle Usury and Capitalism?”

“Are All Democracies Created Equal? 195 Years Might Matter”

“Economic Growth and Human Capital Accumulation: The Rise and Fall of the Protestant Ethic?”
“Kantian Ethics and the Financial Crisis”
