For those of you in the Louisville area, on February 7, the Mcconnell Center is hosting a discussion titled “reThink Big: Liberals, Conservatives, and the Search for Humane Scale.” Here’s the description from the website:

In an age of big governments, big corporations and big farms, there are increasing calls for citizens to support local food movements, local business and smaller governments.

UofL political scientist David Imbroscio will moderate a discussion on the search for “humane scale.” Discussants include Thad Williamson, associate professor of leadership studies and philosophy, politics, economics and law at the University of Richmond, and Mark Mitchell, chair of the government department at Patrick Henry College. Questions and feedback from the audience are encouraged.

It would be great to see FPR readers there.

    If they want to find human scale it’s just not that hard to find. But they won’t find it sitting around a conference table, it’s out in the street where people are actually living.
