Win $10,000 or so…

The Bastiat prize for journalism, 2008, is open to entrants:

IPN’s Bastiat Prize for Journalism was inspired by the 19th-century French philosopher and journalist Frédéric Bastiat.

The prize was developed to encourage and reward writers whose published works promote the institutions of a free society: limited government, rule of law brokered by an independent judiciary, protection of private property, free markets, free speech, and sound science.

The prize fund (a total of US$15,000) will be divided between First, Second and Third placed authors. Entries for 2008 will be accepted from 1 April 2008 with a deadline of 30 June 2008.

More detail here; I was fortunate enough to share the prize with Jamie Whyte in 2006.
