writing for the philosophical review in the early 1920's, american philosopher and cornell professor sought to examine the foundations upon which mills individualism rests, and to note the faces of his philosophy which seem to be out of harmony with this, and which so often pointed to new roads. study may help us strike the proper balance between the individual in society. his conclusion in short was that middle -- mills individualism was not incompatible or necessarily to be excellent away but rather were an opening of new roads of possibility for american individualism himself. few years later, still in the 1820's, charles street, an episcopal student chaplain at the university of chicago, also pointed to mill as a solution of the problem of reconciling individualism with policies intended to improve the general welfare of americans. street argue that the best way to answer questions about the most fitting relationship between the individual and society and state for his fellow americans to turn their attention to a careful study of none other than john stuart mill. in their writin

what you are seeing philosophically i agree with you 100%, media doesn't describe that. reality somehow republican and t conservatives have become very narrow-minded, very inclusive and they just want to push everybody out. you see -- donald trump hijacked republican party. i think he is more honest than 99% the politicians because he is not talking honest, thanks. >> my book is not about politics. it is not about the gop. it is not about donald trump. and it is not even about>> conservative movement as a political movement. the book is about ideas and what is happening with liberalism. and, you can make any argument you want i suppose if you were liberal, progressive liberal sitting there, we're only way we are because of way you are andrg get off into that. i'm trying to rise above that and trying to take them seriously for what they say and claim and believe and maybe we can write that book that you're talking about another day but even if what you're say something true, and i'm not saying it is, it doesn't negate what i'm saying to be true and there is something fund

[applause] as the great philosopher and poet mr. p.r. nelson once said, dearly beloved, we gather here today to get to this thing called life. but on this occasion, the graduation of a class in the year of our lord 2016, john hopkins university, i've been blessed to do what i want and what i love. i love what i do. and what i do is i make films. i'm a film maker, a story teller. and there are two words that are almost in all of my 23 feature films to date. these two words are wake up. wake up from the sleep. wake up from being comatose. wake up from the slumber that keeps your eyes shut to the inequalities and injustices in this often evil, crazy, and insane world we live in. let's move our minds back to the front to a conscious state and wake up. let's leave our lofty ivory towers and institutions and get down to the people. as sisters and brothers say on the block, get woke. let's be alert, open minded, get woke. let's wake up. like the knuckle rings worn by the late ray rahim, let's truly know the difference between love and hate. as

robert: james, do you want to talk about the philosophical basis?ames: as you said, it all seems so temporary and at any moment it could be, they could all be kicked out and arrested. no, i do not think this'll be a philosophical basis, it will be a practical policy that originated in 1962. when kim l song decided in 1961. with the cuban missile crisis. he decided to further develop the military. so they scrapped the seven-year plan, which was supposed to focus on industry. instead, they decided to follow the heavy industry and simultaneously develop military industries. this is a continuation of the thecy needed to secure external environment. this newome up with development. it has only come up in the last six months or so. -- itng on has very much has identified within. the concept is you don't need imports. replace it is better to a domestically made goods for the imports if, for example, that is amplified so that people to focus thed economy on domestic production. maybe that would imply that they have more freedom to do that, that in order to

ryan is a philosophical conservative for limited government. think with trump, you have a nonideological candidate. so where they do have things in common, they both think washington needs to get off the back of business. that means lower taxes, less t regulation. obviously they have a lot of differences on trade and immigration. i would hope that this discussion allows ryan to pull him a little bit that way. but they agree on the fundamental idea. which is you've got to get the american economy growing like it used to. >> but also on political style, dan. ryan is, has rhetoric that's inclusive. he wants toe reach out, wants t expand the party reach-out to minorities. trump, his caustic style, his attack style. we know in private that donald trump can be very charming, we've met with him in private. no doubt he was at that meeting, do you think there's going to be as ryan/trump condominium? >> one would hope so. what they said after that meeting, the republican party, the major political party is not unified, all right? i think it goes beyond m

i will talk about the philosophical underpinning behind the book because it is based on a philosophical idea and then i will talk about how we did the book, how i did my travels, and open it to questions from michael and you guys. the reason i picked this slide is because that is basically the philosophy behind the book is that we have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness but we are most interested in the pursuit of happiness. and the idea is that what we want to look at is if we have the right to pursue happiness, what is that mean, what does it mean to be happy, what does it take for all of us to be happy and then once we decide on that, what does the welfare system have to do with that? will it help us be happier or not be happier? is it helping the people on it live satisfied lives? that is the question we wanted to answer with the book. as far as happiness goes, we are not the first to come up with what we do for a living is essential to human's happiness. what we do to get that earned success. and scholars from sock and on have talked about happiness. probably t

james, do you want to talk about the philosophical basis? said, it all seems so temporary and at any moment it could be, they could all be kicked out and arrested. this'll be athink philosophical basis, it will be a practical policy that originated in 1962. song decided decided after the cuban missile crisis, he felt the need to further demilitarize so they scrapped the serve-year plan, which was at that time supposed to focus on light industry and instead decided to simultaneously continue the development of heavy industry, which from 1953 had been the main focus and at the same time simultaneously develop national defense industries. this is a modification that was needed at the time to deal with he extra security environment. >> they've come up with this new concept, which is self-development. it's only come up in the last six months or two and it's very much identified with kim jong-un. and the concept issue don't need imports. it's better to replace domestically made goods for the imports. if, for example, that is amplify sod that peopl

one of the reasons the republicans will message -- message the economy with the ideological and philosophical that the 30,000-foot level. for instance in cincinnati the epa requires them to separate the sewage system is very expensive project these are older cities that want them separated out and a plan to comply with the epa and then to discover they can do that 40 percent less. and they refused to reopen the issue goes to need extra utility's cost of hundreds of thousands per year. just because the epa will not go back with the process such talk about stifling economies as a presidential candidate you should know about this issue and why it cost hundreds of millions of dollars per day. that makes the economic argument had is what barack obama dead through the fabulous organization and a network of people so when they talk about issues like the economy to get their ambassadors to talk about and that one of the reasons people had such an emotional connection to barack obama and in 2012. >> with wisconsin and ohio why is that a special case? >> they hadn't won except the two landslide electio

very blue county one of the reasons the republicans will message to the economy for using the of philosophical argument up the 30,000 for a level more regulation and free-market but they don't talk brought the fact the epa is requiring citizens to separate switch from their storm drain is very expensive these are older cities that had they merged system and they want them separated so they have put together a plan that epa accepted that then they discovered they could do it for 40 percent less and still meet the goals but the epa refuses to open the issue so as a result people will pay hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in extra utility cost and people don't have the disposable income just because the epa will not reopen the process to allow the city to do more efficiently so if you talk about regulation stifling economies as a presidential candidate you should know candidate you should know about this issue and why it cost them hundreds of millions of dollars new york that will come out of their pockets of the constituents if you talk about that as an economic argument that makes it much

there is a philosophical question at play. how could these incredibly benevolent people devote so much time to closer and almost a practical issue that even though there was some plundering, there is no academic treatment. my work has evolved in the third year since then. close quote it is pretty well known that the nazis were plundering art from european capitals. that is not particular book. >> no. it's been a journey. the first book was about the art collections of the nazis leaders and also their interest in making cultural policy, how not just help there, but all these nazis leaders wanted to get involved this museum policy, are trading films and all that. the second book was about the hints on our blunders, how art experts from the museum directors, art historian became complicit in the criminal looting products of the leaders of that book was called faustian bargain and people like myself who have been professionals in the cultural sphere who made this ethical compromise and became an un- planners and perpetrators. arti

i thought about it and realized i was tremendously interested in with of philosophical questions and with the nexus of barbarism in and culture had also practical issues. there was no scholarly or academic treatment. so my work has evolved since then. >> host: it is pretty well known in regulation of the art trade then the cells but this second book is the hands-on how we experts it leaves you gsa head and but she became my hands on perpetrators of the artist under hitler completes the trilogy the first is a cultural history and this is supposed to be the representative of official culture him of course, i of thinking of those. [laughter] i have to look at it to. the wording is very interesting. when i visited three incentive to leave right and out of the war i was that this him idg less because those that were defending this for in a different situation bill was a light to be an artist? >> it has to do with the ethnic background. if one was you wish they have difficulties after jiri 33. drust touche and cultural impact the cultural immigration from history in the 30 - - surgeries' a

so, one of the reasons is that republicans will message on the economy by using an ideological, philosophical argument at the 30,000-foot level. lower regulation, but that's all. they don't talk about the fact that for instance, in cincinnati the epa is requiring the city to separate their sewage system from a storm drain system. a very expensive project. this is something they been doing that other cities as well. older cities that has sort of emerge system and they want them separated out. the city of cincinnati put together a plan to comply with the epa. epa accepted it and discovered they could do it for 40% less and still meet all of the goals. the epa refused to reopen the issue. as a result, you have people who will pay hundreds of dollars a year in extra utilities in a city where people don't have that kind of disposable income. just because the epa will not go back and reopen the process and allow the city of cincinnati to do it less expensively, more efficiently. so if you talk about regulation stifling local economies and taking money out of your pocket, as a presidential candidate

what other philosophical basis can he provide to the people. second question is regarding so panels expected that there will be not much difference compared to the last congress. if there's going to be any differences, if kim jong-un can make any differences, what can he do? especially when now we pass the iran resolution which is considered as one of the toughest sanctions that we ever placed on north korea. and china is now showing pretty different attitude compared to previous sanctions. now china is showing more. the korean government places more effective sanctions. if there is going to be any differences from kim jong-un, what kind of words, phrases, actions can we expect in the congress. >> do you want to talk about the philosophical basis? >> i think bob was talking about that. i don't know that -- that's not -- that's not the cover that these people need. as you said, these people out in the markets, it all seems so temporary. at any moment it could all be -- you know, they could all be kicked out and arrested. this is a practical poli

but from a philosophical difference. he is touched mostly in passing on the issues of the day while ttempting to set out fundamental ideas that might serve beyond the moment. in this talk, he names as classics of conservative literature, the writings of burke, coleridge, and israeli. coleridge, he says, was rather a man of my own type, differing from myself chiefly in being immensely more learned, more industrious, and endowed with a mind owerful and subtle and i think he's sincere about that too. plus, he identifies with the political ote about philosophy but never attempted to enter the arena of practical politics. in this talk, he also mentions n article he had read recently on american political philosophy without naming the author. know that he was referring to russell kirk, who more become somewhat involved in the political fray held liot, but had never public office except that as of justice of the peace in the county. eliot ends his brief talk by emphasizing that there should writers a few penetrated to the core

i don't think of them as terribly philosophical. if you didn't, what would it have been come in your view of having studied them. where was the thing to be learned from each that would bring us something clarifying? prof schultz: the particular meeting that mailer invited buckley to, that day, it didn't happen so far as i could tell. they might have met and had a marvelous conversation over three or four bottles of wine. it is not in historical records. they may have even picked up the phone and had a phone call, also not in the historical record. they did continue to debate one another. until the late -- 1966 or 1967 where they said the vietnam would mean we would end up fighting one another instead of hashing out our philosophical differences. they took a brief hiatus. it lasted about six months. buckley said, just come on the firing line and talk about your recent book. the common ground they would have found was that virtuous heart. the sense that, michael ignacio was a for perfect person -- the perfect person to kick this off,

he talked in philosophical terms about why i should continue and how everything was all fine and good. i was very dissatisfied with those conversations. i was squinting. i was quitting. i gave them a month's notice and quit. >> the person that talked to in philosophical terms from washington. do you recall the substance of that conversation? in this effort to get you to remain as the informant, what kinds of reasons were advanced? mary: mostly they were trying to usher me that the fbi was part of -- our conversations were far-reaching. we discussed all sorts of social issues, poverty, the state program. they tried to assure me that things were doing fine. that the status quo was fine. i was involved with a group that had bad readjustment needs as veterans that do not have social programs that were sufficient for them. i was also involved in welfare rights. i was constantly meeting people that lived in a degree of poverty that provoked them and irritated them, frustrated them. they turned to self-help programs. here on one hand, i have a man telling me that things are fine and that my

there is an economic part to it also aou but there is philosophical part.ould someone put into place economic policies that essentially haven't destroyed the american -- have destroyed the american middle class. we are still in the middle of the crash of the 2008. it never resolved. bubble gum and bailing wire. they held off for rational political partisan purposes. the obama administration is doing the same thing, trying to hold off until november 2016. the difference is he has got the entire republican party trying to bring it down around his years. hold it not able to off. it still blew up. -- stock market hit 16,000 80% of the stocks are on the top 20%. that is the wealth of the wealth. we are not looking at the economy. they say the economy is great. all these houses. -- a veryge of those large percentage of those houses have lost money. people rents cars. the equity has been taken out. mess ofhis0 physicalness of this, -- my fatherdream went to japan as part of the occupation. back on the g.i. bill, he went to college. he wanted to be a history profes

requires the perspective of a historian, the insights of the sociologist, and the reflections of the philosopher. weapons are not what will halt the spread of terrorism and religious extremism. what will our people who comprehended the fundamentals of religion, understand its true purpose and can find the path to restore the true meaning of faith, forgiveness, and peace. in the digital age, the only constant is change itself. a large number of jobs today did not exist five years ago. the furious explosion of technology makes it impossible to predict the world in five years, let alone 50. in order for this ever-changing world, the future belongs to those who are adaptable. those who can change directions, reinvent themselves, spot new opportunities, and continuously innovate. liberal arts study has molded you into that type of person. valuable, the most thing you have been taught is how to teach yourself. you are capable of lifelong learning, and that gives you a competitive edge in an unpredictable world. but making a meaningful life goes well beyond adapting to whatever vocation awaits you. in
