Distribution Spotlight:

Since 2021, The Atlas Society has partnered with ALED (Action for Liberty & Economic Development)—a libertarian think tank headquartered in Uganda, Africa, that empowers youth and women to advocate for their economic rights and freedom.

The Atlas Society delivers our publications to ALED through a local Ugandan print shop, and ALED distributes them at conferences all across Africa!

Most recently, ALED hosted the Africa Liberty Camp—an annual, regional free-market 3-day event—and passed out copies of Ayn Rand and Altruism, The 7 Habits of a Highly Objective People, and our Pocket Guides to Capitalism, Atlas Shrugged, Objectivism, Postmodernism, and The Fountainhead.

The event drew attendees and speakers from 8 different countries including South Sudan, Sudan, Uganda, Burundi, Nigeria. A huge THANK YOU to all of our donors who make these kinds of partnerships possible!

After interviewing Rainer Zitelmann, Ph.D., about his book The Rich in Public Opinion, in preparation for our interview with him, we decided to produce his book as an audiobook. The work presents Zitelmann’s findings on envy, including his Social Envy Coefficient, which indicates the ratio of social enviers to non-enviers in any given country. Originally published by the CATO Institute, The Atlas Society released our audiobook version in July of this year.

About the Author: German historian and sociologist, Rainer Zitelmann, Ph.D., taught academically before embarking on a successful career as an entrepreneur and real estate investor. His 25 books include The Power of Capitalism, The Art of a Successful Life, and Hitler’s National Socialism.

About the Book: According to Rainer, The Rich in Public Opinion “examines attitudes about wealth and the wealthy in four industrialized Western countries: Germany, the United States, France, and Great Britain. People often admire the wealthy, but…people can also envy them—a sometimes toxic envy that can put lives at risk.”
