Personal life

Career

Sorens received his B.A. in economics and philosophy, with honors, from Washington and Lee University and his PhD in political science from Yale University.[2]

Sorens is a Senior Research Fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research (AIER), a conservative libertarian think-tank.[1] Previously, Sorens was the director of the Center for Ethics in Society at St. Anselm College[3] and prior to that he was a lecturer in the department of government at Dartmouth College. He has been an affiliated scholar with the Mercatus Center at George Mason University since 2008.

Free State Project

Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". In July 2001, Sorens published an essay titled "Announcement: The Free State Project",[6] in which he proposed the idea of a political migration, with 20,000 libertarians to move to a single low-population state (New Hampshire, selected in 2003) to make the state a stronghold for libertarian ideas.[7]

As of November 26, 2021, over 20,000 people had signed this statement of intent[8]—completing the original goal—with 5,223 people listed as "movers" to New Hampshire on the FSP website, saying they had already moved to New Hampshire as part of the 20,000+-participant trigger.[9] As of May 2022, approximately 6,232 participants have moved to New Hampshire for the Free State Project.[10]
