SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
Morazán City, a Honduran special economic and development zone (ZEDE) designed for Hondurans, has been quietly reshaping what governance can look like. The construction started in 2020, and now a few hundred residents have chosen to move to this partially autonomous city. In this location, innovative institutions promise a more secure, prosperous, and business-friendly locale than elsewhere in Honduras.In 2024, President Xiomara Castro repealed the ZEDE Law, giving existing ZEDEs a 10-year deadline to operate under special rules. Despite political uncertainty Joyce Brand, author of Pioneering Prosperity: The Morazán Model for Free Cities (2024), contends autonomous cities like Morazán are the future of governance and economic freedom. Brand emphasizes: “Honduran workers, not libertarians, are happy to reside in Morazán City.”Show notes: https://impunityobserver.com/2025/08/05/the-dream-why-a-true-believer-defends-zedes-in-honduras/Buy "Pioneering Prosperity: The Morazán Model for Free Cities" by Joyce Brand: https://amzn.to/455hJfY
