The Mont Pelerin Society is an international organization founded in 1947 by economists, philosophers, and political scientists, including Friedrich Hayek. Its primary goal is to promote classical liberalism, emphasizing free markets, individual liberty, and limited government intervention in the economy. Members of the society engage in discussions and publish works that advocate for these principles. The society has played a significant role in shaping modern conservative and libertarian thought, influencing various political movements and policies around the world.
