CAMBRIDGE – A couple of days ago the Telos-Paul Piccone Institute hosted “Political Economy and the Good Life: The 2024 Postliberalism Conference” at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge – where TS Eliot first delivered the lectures that became The Idea of a Christian Society.

To bring together speakers ranging from Maurice Glasman and Phillip Blond to the Plough and First Things’ Susannah Black Roberts and Dan Hitchens respectively, it tethered strongly critiques around the “crisis of liberalism” to the Catholic social teaching tradition.
