Summary

Description
English: Exploring Liberty: The Problem of Political Ignorance (with Ilya Somin) - Libertarianism.org

Ilya Somin is a Professor of Law at the George Mason University School of Law and is also a regular contributor at The Volokh Conspiracy, a group law blog.

In this Exploring Liberty lecture, Somin introduces the theory of political ignorance, which posits that the majority of the electorate doesn't have enough information to make fully-informed political decisions with the understanding that for most people this ignorance is perfectly rational. Somin counters several arguments that discount the effects of political ignorance and explains the implications of this idea on the movement for limited government.
