Online Discussion: Theory and Practice

​Join us for a stimulating online discussion on Ayn Rand's seminal essay, "_Theory and Practice_," from her book **_Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal._** This piece is a powerful defense of rational, abstract principles and a condemnation of the philosophical split between thought and action. ​We will dive deep into Rand's argument that a proper theory is not a utopian dream, but a fundamental prerequisite for successful practice—whether in politics, economics, or personal life. This discussion is for anyone interested in Ayn Rand's Objectivist philosophy, political theory, economic principles, or the relationship between ideas and reality. Whether you are a long-time Rand reader or new to her work, come prepared to challenge your assumptions and engage in a rigorous exploration of one of her most enduring arguments. ​We look forward to an evening of thoughtful, principled debate!
