Friday Interview: Douthat Makes Moral, Material Case for Markets

RALEIGH — The Great Recession offered new ammunition to those attacking the American system of free enterprise, while defenders of that system have spent recent years refining their arguments. One of those defenders is Ross Douthat, conservative author, blogger, and New York Times columnist. Douthat shared his insights about democratic capitalism during a visit this fall to Chapel Hill. He discussed similar themes during an interview with Mitch Kokai for Carolina Journal Radio.
