The Rational Egoist: The Impact of Dr. Leonard Peikoff with James Stevens Valliant In this episode of The Rational Egoist, host Michael Liebowitz welcomes James Stevens Valliant to discuss the profound impact of Dr. Leonard Peikoff, the foremost interpreter of Ayn Rand's philosophy and her designated intellectual heir. Valliant explores Peikoff's contributions to Objectivism, his influential works, and his role in advancing Rand's ideas. Together, they delve into how Peikoff's teachings have shaped philosophical thought and inspired a new generation of Objectivists. Tune in for a fascinating conversation that highlights the enduring influence of one of the most significant figures in modern philosophy. Michael Leibowitz, host of The Rational Egoist podcast, is a philosopher and political activist who draws inspiration from Ayn Rand's philosophy, advocating for reason, rational self-interest, and individualism. His journey from a 25-year prison sentence to a prominent voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities highlights the transformative impact of embracing these principles. Leibowitz actively participates in political debates and produces content aimed at promoting individual rights and freedoms. He is the co-author of “Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime” and “View from a Cage: From Convict to Crusader for Liberty,” which explore societal issues and his personal evolution through Rand's teachings.

In this episode of New Ideal Live, Ben Bayer and Mike Mazza respond to several common and plausible philosophic objections to Objectivism that were sent in by viewers. Among the topics covered: Why it is valuable to explore objections to any philosophy, especially one's own; Why Objectivism does not fall foul of a supposed is/ought gap in its argument for self-interest;What Ayn Rand says we can learn about the foundations of morality by comparing human beings to other organisms; How to deal with scientific claims that seem to conflict with philosophic ideas; Why modern brain science cannot disprove the existence of free will;The merits and shortcomings of raising questions about the compatibility of free will with modern brain science;Why Objectivism takes free will to be a self-evident primary that cannot be disproven by science; Why accepting the importance of science and rationality entails implicitly assuming free will; Why the choice to live, which sits at the foundation of the Objectivist ethics, is not a groundless choice and does not make the Objectivist ethics arbitrary or subjective;How objections to the choice to live arise; Why the choice to live is grounded in reality and thus not arbitrary; Why the method of raising counterexamples, commonly used in analytic philosophy, often neglects the need to keep firmly in mind the facts one is trying to conceptualize;The sort of counterexamples to Rand's ethical argument raised by Michael Huemer; Why counterexamples of this kind often fail to grapple with the real meaning of the generalizations they're meant to refute. Mentioned in this podcast and relevant to the discussion are the New Ideal Live episode “Objectivism Q&A—July 2022,” “Life-Based Teleology and the Foundations of Ethics” by Harry Binswanger, “Why Champions of Science and Reason Need Free Will” by Ben Bayer, “Seize the Reins of Your Mind: The Objectivist Theory of Free Will” by Onkar Ghate, Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand by Leonard Peikoff, and “Reasoning About Ends” by Darryl Wright.

In this episode of New Ideal Live, Ben Bayer, Dan Schwartz and Agustina Vergara Cid address questions on Objectivism submitted by the podcast's audience about the meaning of the term “objectivity,” the difference between evasion and selective focus, and the strongest objections to Objectivism. Among the topics covered: If objectivity designates a certain relationship between consciousness and existence, how can reality itself be objective?The two meanings of “objectivity”: one epistemological, one metaphysical;Whether Objectivism's use of the term “objective” to refer to a relationship between mind and reality is idiosyncratic;Can you reach a false conclusion while being objective?Is it evasion to narrow your focus to the good or positive things within a certain context?When and how it's appropriate to focus on the benefits rather than the downsides of a particular situation;Focus as paying attention to something versus the specifically Objectivist meaning of focus as a state of “purposeful alertness;”How to prioritize one's attention in light of Objectivism's view that one should be motivated primarily by values rather than fear.What are the strongest objections to Objectivism?The difference between plausible objections and those that are common or valid;The objection that Ayn Rand's argument for her ethics justifies maintaining physical survival, but does not justify fulfilling and enjoying one's life;What this objection misses about the distinctive nature of life as a human being, such as the importance of mental well-being;Whether survival and flourishing are separate goals in cases like choosing to live a longer but less enjoyable life by adopting a healthier diet;The objection raised by many scientifically minded people that Objectivism is wrong to think human beings have free will;The failure of free-will skeptics to take seriously the introspective evidence for free will or to fully recognize the implications of determinism;The objection that claims Rand is a materialist. Mentioned in this podcast are Leonard Peikoff's book Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand, the Ayn Rand Lexicon entry on “Objectivity,” Bayer's blog post “The History of Objectivity in Light of Rand's Epistemology and Ethics,” Rand's novel Atlas Shrugged, Lecture 2 of Peikoff's course Understanding Objectivism, and Harry Binswanger's course Free Will.

Ayn Rand escaped the communism of Soviet Russia in her early twenties, came to the United States, and built a career for herself as the bestselling author of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. She developed the philosophy of Objectivism, which she said, “in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute.” Objectivism answered longstanding philosophic questions, clarifying the connection between facts and values; demonstrating the objective nature of the senses, concepts, and knowledge; and offering a rational alternative to pervasive mysticism and skepticism. Her novels, which portrayed men overcoming great obstacles to achieve ambitious goals, have impacted the lives of millions and continue to sell hundreds of thousands of copies each year.   Subscribe in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you're listening right now.   If you'd like to suggest a heroic figure to be covered on the show, send an email to Jon@ObjectiveStandard.org.   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/objectivestandard Twitter: https://twitter.com/ObjStdInstitute LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/objectivestandardinstitute/   Also check out:   Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand: https://amzn.to/2TiywYH   The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand: https://amzn.to/37CWQN4   Philosophy: Who Needs It by Ayn Rand: https://amzn.to/34pxuAu   Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand by Leonard Peikoff: https://amzn.to/3dNSW5a Objectivism in One Lesson by Andrew Bernstein: https://amzn.to/2TlPhSy

In 1957, the Russian-born American philosopher, Ayn Rand, published Atlas Shrugged, one of the most politically influential American novels of the 20th Century. The best-seller imagines a dystopia in which all wealth-creators go on strike causing the global economy to collapse. Atlas Shrugged made Ayn Rand a hero for free-market economists and political libertarians.
