97- Auron MacIntyre on Conquest’s Laws and Conservative Christianity


Listen Later

In this episode, I talk with Auron MacIntyre, host of the Auron MacIntyre Show, about Conquest’s Laws. Robert Conquest was a British-American historian and poet known for his work on the Soviet Union. A long-time research fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution, he developed two laws of politics (a third is considered John O’Sullivan’s first law, O’Sullivan being a British conservative political commentator and journalist):


  1. Everyone is conservative about what he knows best.
  2. Any organization not explicitly right-wing sooner or later becomes left-wing.
  3. The simplest way to explain the behavior of any bureaucratic organization is to assume that it is controlled by a cabal of its enemies.


Auron and I discuss why these laws matter in politics and how they prove true in a variety of ways. We also seek to understand how they work their way out in business and church. Auron and I discuss church and state and why churches should not declare themselves to be “right-wing” but instead simply be Christian.
