Ayn Rand was a Russian-American writer and philosopher, known for her controversial and impactful ideas. Born Alisa Zinovievna Rosenbaum in 1905 in Saint Petersburg, Russia, she emigrated to the United States in the 1920s, fleeing the Russian Revolution and the communist regime. This experience deeply influenced her worldview and her works, in which she advocated for extreme individualism and reason as the fundamental principles of human existence.
Her most famous novels, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead, feature heroes who challenge social conventions and fight for their own interests above all else. Rand believed that rational selfishness was a virtue and that altruism sacrificed the true essence of being human. Her ideas gave rise to Objectivism, a philosophy that celebrates the pursuit of one's own success and rejects any form of coercion or collectivism. To her, the ideal human was one who lived for themselves and not for others.
Although widely criticized by some for her radical views, Ayn Rand also gained a legion of followers, especially among entrepreneurs and free-market advocates. Her influence transcends literature, impacting economic and political thought in various parts of the world. Rand remains a polarizing figure, admired and debated, but always relevant to discussions about freedom, morality, and the role of the individual in society.
