Congratulations to Amit Varma for winning the Bastiat Prize!
The first hint I had that I might win was when the event photographer kept taking pictures of me, more so than of anyone else. “Damn,� I thought, “does this mean I’ll have to give a speech?� The evening passed slowly, with one of the high points being a charming and witty keynote speech by Anne Applebaum. “I will be such a contrast if I have to speak,� I thought. Perhaps I wouldn’t win any prize. My pessimism was suddenly wishful thinking.
