270: The Future Of International Cities - Titus Gebel
The Expat Money Show - With Mikkel Thorup
The Frustration with Political Systems and the Shift of Classical Liberal Parties
In this chapter, the guest discusses his journey into politics driven by his dissatisfaction with the current political systems and shares his ideas about freedom, self-responsibility, and accountability, highlighting the declining status of classical liberal parties.
TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH TITUS GEBEL
- Listen to Titus detail how his ideas about free cities spawned from his frustration with politics.
- Hear about Titus’s unique background in politics, law and entrepreneurship that made him the ideal person to craft the vision of the free cities concept.
- Learn about the many success stories that have emerged from the free cities model, including the widespread increase of special economic zones (SEZ’s).
- Titus and I discuss the concept of “government as a service” and how the services we’re used to getting from coercive governments can be delivered through the free cities model.
- Listen to Titus explain the new branding of “international cities” to counter the allergy governments have to the words “free” and “private.”
- Titus and I roll our eyes together at the concept of the “social contract,” - the terms of which seem to change based on the whims of whoever is enforcing it.
- Hear Titus lay out the reasons why contractual governments are much better protectors of rights than the current coercive model.
- Titus hints at the regions where we may see some of these International Cities popping up in the coming years.

I was so excited to have Titus Gebel on the show after knowing him for many years through our mutual work with various free cities projects. As you can tell from the episode, Titus and I are both incredibly optimistic about the future of what is now being dubbed “International Cities.” Even as the clouds of world war and economic calamity prospects loom, I always do my best to focus on the actions we can take towards achieving greater liberty, and the International Cities concept is one of the most exciting prospects ahead.Mentioned in this episode:
