What is the conservative view of liberty? What role does tradition and customs play? I will be addressing these questions during my keynote speech on Wednesday in Budapest.

"An affable elitism, combined with what Burgos calls a conservative individualism and anti-socialism, encapsulates the LSE Right and makes it perhaps the most electorally viable in Britain, if not for a rising tide of populism and heated, American-style culture-war politics."
Intellectual conservatism has proved to be both durable and versatile over the last 250 years, and there is little reason to believe that it will be any less versatile in the future.

I trasnslated and wrote about the Oakeshott-Popper exchange:
Michael Oakeshott 1948-as levélváltása Karl Popperrel. (2006) Bev. és ford.: Horkay Hörcher Ferenc. Kommentár, 1/2. 35-45

As @MateusMBruno asked, the life of an editor didn't really change between today and the fifties (as one could guess). Here you find Oakeshott chasing Popper.
