Bodrum, September 2025

Every year, a small group of economists, historians, philosophers and practical libertarians gather on the Aegean coast to talk freely in a world that is increasingly hostile to free speech. Freedom Under the Sun is the written record of the 2025 meeting of the Property and Freedom Society in Bodrum – a candid, unscripted conversation about liberty, empire, money, war and culture, held in the shade of the Hotel Karia Princess.

Edited and shaped by Sebastian Wang, with an Introduction by Sean Gabb and a Foreword by Stephan Kinsella, this volume brings together the most thought-provoking papers and discussions from the conference. The contributors do not offer a party line. They argue with each other as much as with the modern managerial state. What unites them is a shared belief that private property, free exchange and voluntary association are the only secure foundations of a civilised order.

Across historical case-studies, theoretical essays and hard-headed policy talks, the book explores how genuine liberty can survive under systems that are democratic in name yet bureaucratic and coercive in practice. The result is a snapshot of dissident liberal thought at a time of war scares, inflation, surveillance and cultural fragmentation.

Inside this volume, you will find:

• Clear, non-technical defences of private property and contract in an age of central banking and regulation.

• Analyses of war, sanctions and great-power rivalry from an anti-imperial yet pro-Western perspective.

• Essays on culture, education, religion and the family, and their role in sustaining or undermining a free society.

• Discussions of secession, decentralisation and parallel institutions as realistic strategies of resistance.

• Historical reflections on earlier empires and revolutions – and what they can teach us about today’s crises.

Whether you are a long-standing reader of Hoppe, Rothbard and Kinsella, or are simply looking for serious arguments against the expanding power of the modern state, Freedom Under the Sun offers a rare thing: honest, unfiltered debate among people who still take ideas seriously.

Read these proceedings as a record of one conference on the Turkish coast – and as a reminder that, even now, there are places where difficult questions about power and freedom can still be asked in the open.
