Yaron Brook (Hebrew: ירון ברוק; born May 23, 1961)[1] is an Israeli-American entrepreneur, writer, and activist. He is an Objectivist and the current chairman of the board at the Ayn Rand Institute, where he was executive director from 2000 to 2017. He is also the co-founder of BHZ Capital LP.[2]

Biography

Yaron Brook was born and raised in Israel. His parents were Jewish socialists from South Africa. When he was sixteen, a friend lent him a copy of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, leading him to abandon the socialism taught to him by his parents and to embrace Objectivism.[3] After graduating from high school, he served as a first sergeant in Israeli military intelligence (1979–1982) and then earned a Bachelor of Science in civil engineering in 1986 from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa.[4] In 1987, he moved to the United States, where he received his Master of Business Administration in 1989 and PhD in finance in 1994 from the University of Texas at Austin. Yaron Brook is married and has 2 grown children.

Academic and business career

Dr. Brook began his career as a finance professor at the Leavey School of Business at Santa Clara University, a position he held for seven years and which won him awards of recognition.

In 1998, he co-founded a financial advisory firm with Robert Hendershott, BH Equity Research, where he continues today as managing director and chairman[5]

Dr. Brook became an associate of leading Objectivist intellectuals, such as philosopher Leonard Peikoff, and in 1994, he co-founded Lyceum International, a company that organized Objectivist conferences and offered distance-learning courses. In 2000, he left Santa Clara University to succeed Michael Berliner as President and Executive Director of the Ayn Rand Institute, which was then located in Marina del Rey, California. In 2002, ARI relocated to Irvine, California.[6]

Dr. Brook's philosophical activism includes teaching and public lecturing in North America and around the world. His talks are mostly international, especially since woke-triggered policies have become the norm on American campuses.

Dr. Brook speaks and debates at numerous American universities, delivering seminars for businesses and corporations in the United States and abroad, and writing opinion editorials for leading newspapers and websites. Speaking venues also include conferences, and professional and community groups. His subjects span a wide range of current events and philosophical issues, including the causes of the financial crisis, the morality of capitalism, and ending the growth of the state, each discussed with Objectivism at its foundation. In recent years, he has spoken to audiences throughout the world, including those in China, Australia, Brazil,[7] Argentina,[8] Greece,[9] Iceland, Bulgaria, Israel,[10] Guatemala,[11] and England.[12]

Brook is a columnist for Forbes,[13] and his articles have been featured in The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Investor's Business Daily, and many other publications. A frequent guest on a variety of radio and national television programs, he is the co-author of Neoconservatism: An Obituary for an Idea and Free Market Revolution: How Ayn Rand's Ideas Can End Big Government, and contributing author of Winning the Unwinnable War: America's Self-Crippled Response to Islamic Totalitarianism. His newest book is Equal Is Unfair: America's Misguided Fight Against Income Inequality, co-authored with Don Watkins.

The Yaron Brook Show

On January 7, 2015, the day of the Charlie Hebdo shooting,[14] Yaron Brook made his first-ever podcast and premiered The Yaron Brook Show.[15]

The program doesn't have a set schedule. However, the program is livestreamed (and on wherever you listen to podcasts[16]) on many social-media platforms, approximately, four times/week. When Brook is home, scheduled programs are more predictably livestreamed. When Dr. Brook is on the road, scheduled programs are more intermittent.

Events

Dr. Brook speaks at events hosted by private companies, student organizations and non-profits in America and internationally. His website, YaronBrookShow.com, maintains a schedule of upcoming appearances[17] and information on speaking requests.[18]

Dr. Brook is a contributor, and frequent speaker at events, with The Federalist Society.[19][20]

On Wednesday, September 27, 2017, at the Yale Student Chapter of The Federalist Society, Dr. Brook participated in an event named, "Income Inequality: Is It Fair or Unfair?".[21] Dr. Brook was chosen to participate in the event due to the popularity and success of his book, "Equal Is Unfair: America's Misguided Fight Against Income Inequality".[22] Dr. Brook's counterpart in the discussion was Professor Daniel Markovits, Guido Calabresi Professor of Law at Yale Law School.[23]

The Yale Federalist Society presented the event as "a conversation and Q&A on income inequality. Is it fair or unfair? We hear that the gap between the poor and the rich has widened. Many decry the injustice of income and wealth inequality. But is it actually a problem and are the proposed remedies truly just? What is a fair “distribution” of income and wealth?."[24] The description goes on to say, "Markovits argues in favor of finding state and societal solutions to reduce this income gap and Brook argues that a genuinely laissez-faire capitalist society is the only system of fairness."[25] This debate is the most watched video, ever, on The Federalist Society's YouTube channel.[26]

The Federalist Society has hosted many other events featuring Dr. Brook. They are listed on The Federalist Society's website.[27]

Podcasts

Through the years, Dr. Brook has produced many shows, on many types of issues.[28] Some of these shows have been made into series. Some of Dr. Brook's podcasts dealing with economics were made into a series called, Radical Capitalist;[29] podcasts covering the application of Objectivism in one's life is called Living Objectivism;[30] Yaron Lectures[31] is a series where Dr. Brook's lectures are available; Yaron Interviews[32] is a series where Dr. Brook interviews important intellectual figures; the series Yaron Debates[33] is where you can listen/watch Dr. Brook's debates; in Yaron Answers,[34] Dr. Brook answers questions from viewers; most recently, Dr. Brook has been developing a series called Yaron's Rules for Life.[35]

In something of an answer(s) to Jordan Peterson's Rules for Life, in April of 2021, a super-sponsor to The Yaron Brook Show made it possible for Dr. Brook to make a show on his rules for living. The show was a hit and became the launchpad for a series.

The shows are given unique titles, describing the program's topic. Don't Stop Moving,[36] Being Optimistic in a Crazy World,[37] and, most recently, Cultivating the Virtue of Justice,[38] are just some examples of what the series tackles.

As of June, 2022, sixteen podcasts have been produced for this series.[39]

Ingenuism

Progress at the Speed of Thought

On January 19, 2021, Yaron Brook, along with Robert Hendershott and Don Watkins, launched Ingenuism on Substack.

To introduce themselves, the title of their first post was, "Progress at the speed of thought."[42]

In their first essay, Ingenuism: A New Theory of Innovation[43], which introduces the concept of Ingenuism and lays out what you can expect going forward, the authors describe the Ingenuism project as the following:

"Ingenuism is a new economic framework which holds that progress derives from ingenuity supported by the core principles of connection, exploration, and environment.

  • Connection is the ability for people to observe and learn from other people’s ideas and insights, and to collaborate in ways that generate better ideas and insights.
  • Exploration is our ability to test out ideas and engage in trial-and-error learning.
  • Environment is a culture (and legal framework) that not only allows for but encourages exploration, connection, and iterative learning.

When we get connection and exploration in a supportive environment, the result is rapid innovation, value creation, and progress."[44]

Format

Each essay is, mainly, comprised of 3 sections: Insight, where a concept(s) within Ingenuism is discussed; Quick Takes, where current events are related to principles of Ingenuism; and Recommendation, where the authors make recommendations for books relevant to the topics discussed within Ingenuism.

Podcast

Ingenuism is available as a podcast, as well.

Each week, the authors discuss a topic relevant to the weekly essay. Topics range from wealth creation[45] and progress[46], to cryptocurrency[47] and much more[48].

One topic that became a series was Silicon Valley Examined[49], where the authors would discuss the ideas, culture, and productiveness that made Silicon Valley into what it is.

The podcast is available on Apple Podcasts[50], Spotify[51], or wherever you listen to podcasts[52].

YouTube Channel

Ingenuism is also on YouTube[53].

Guests have included Deirdre McCloskey[54], Tyler Cowen[55], and many others[56].

Views and opinions

A playlist of all Dr. Brook's lectures and debates are freely available on his YouTube channel.[57]

Rational selfishness

Brook promotes the Objectivist ethical position that rational selfishness is a moral virtue and that altruism is evil. In addition to teaching classes on his moral view of self-interest at ARI and as a guest lecturer at Brown University, Brook also defended the egoist position in a 2006 debate with former US Senator Robert Krueger at Texas State University, San Marcos.

Politics and economics

Brook is an outspoken proponent of laissez-faire capitalism. In appearances on CNBC[58] and several articles[59] and speeches, he has defended the rights of corporations and businessmen and upheld the virtues of capitalism. In a January 7, 2007, editorial in USA Today, he defended multimillion-dollar CEO pay packages against the attempt by the government to regulate them.[60] In a 2010 interview, Brook called the efforts of Democrats to raise taxes on multi-millionaires "totally immoral." He criticized George W. Bush for signing the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which regulates corporate accounting practices.[61] He has also argued that antitrust laws are "unjust and make no sense ethically or economically."[62]

On gun rights, Brook has stated, "The government certainly has a role in regulating ownership of weapons", but he states that it is a "complex" issue to do with the philosophy of law. He is inclined to draw the line of prohibition between "offensive" weapons, such as tanks and weapons of mass destruction, and "defensive" weapons.[63]

Dr. Brook has taught financial courses dealing with topics such as the Financial Crisis,[64] the corporation,[65] and many more. All these courses are freely available on Dr. Brook's YouTube channel.[66]

Foreign policy

Brook applies Objectivist moral philosophy to the question of American foreign policy, particularly on the Middle East. He advocates an American foreign policy of rational self-interest that would serve only to protect the rights of Americans, as opposed to any form of government monetary aid, state-building, or spreading democracy.[67] He has criticized the foreign policy of Ron Paul and other libertarians.[68]

He advocates the withdrawal of US troops from Europe, and US withdrawal from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the United Nations, calling the latter "one of the most immoral institutions ever created by man". He is ambivalent about the World Trade Organization.[69]

Brook called for an embargo on North Korea.[70]

Dr. Brook has taught foreign policy courses dealing with topics such as the history of the Middle East.[71] These courses are freely available on Dr. Brook's YouTube channel.[72]

Islamic terrorism

Brook argues that Islamic terrorists initiated a war against the West because they hate its culture, wealth, love of life, and global influence,[73] and that they attack Israel because of the influence Western culture has had on it.[67] He rejects the idea that Islamic terrorists attack Western nations because they support Israel or because of poverty or retaliation.[67]Brook claims that the West is not at war with terrorism but the ideology of Islamic totalitarianism. He repeatedly says that just like in World War II, the US was at war against not Japanese kamikaze pilots or German tanks but the ideas of Nazism and Japanese imperialism.[74][75]Brook claims that Islamic totalitarians are Muslims who wish to dictate every part of life from the teachings of Islam, taken to its logical extreme.[75] He believes that Islamic totalitarians want to organize their governments according to Islam and that they wish to spread a global Islamic government across the world, sometimes by using legitimate means but mainly by using physical force, terrorism.[75] Brook claims that the Islamic totalitarians repeatedly express that openly by arguing:

Dr. Brook has taught courses on Islamic terrorism covering topics like the rise of totalitarian Islam.[76] All these courses are freely available on Dr. Brook's YouTube channel.[77]

Morality of war

Brook has laid out a unique theory of the morality of war,[78][79] based on the ideas of Ayn Rand [80] and Leonard Peikoff.[81]

Israel

Brook considers Israel to be a morally good nation because its Western-style government protects the rights of its citizens, Arab and Jewish alike, vastly more than neighboring countries.[82][83] On Zionism, Brook argued that "Zionism fused a valid concern—self-preservation amid a storm of hostility—with a toxic premise: ethnically based collectivism and religion."[84]

Brook advocates supporting Israel, which he sees as a Western ally against Islamic terrorism.[85]Brook disagrees with many of Israel's policies, including its collectivist and religious influences, and its “self-sacrificial” foreign policy of giving its enemies land, money, and other goods.[82][86]
