The Index is an unashamedly liberal publication.

We stand for individual liberty, the rule of law, limited government, free markets, private property, freedom of speech, religious tolerance, and equality before the law.

These values are not guaranteed. They must be defended against authoritarianism, centralization, groupthink, and those who seek control through fear, comfort, or coercion.

We fight with ideas. We publish sharp arguments, historical perspective, and clear thinking rooted in the liberal tradition.

Liberalism is a project worth continuing. The Index is for those who are still building.
