The 2013 Bastiat Prize for Journalism.

Reason foundation proudly presents the 12th Annual Bastiat Prize for
Journalism. Featuring $16,000 in award money, the Bastiat Prize honors
writers from around the globe who explain the importance of freedom
with originality, wit, and eloquence. The prize is named for the
classical liberal essayist Frédéric Bastiat (1801-1850), whose
writings on free markets, political economy, and individual rights
remain a touchstone in libertarian thought. Past prize winners include
Virginia Postrel, Tim Harford, Mary Anastasia O'Grady, Robert Guest,
Sauvik Chakraverti, Amity Shlaes, and Anne Jolis.
