Book Description
This collection of essays strives to answer libertarian questions using authoritarian answers. It critiques libertarian assumptions and offers unintuitive solutions that are fully compatible with non-aggression, private property, and free markets. This book is a much-needed world-view adjustment for any libertarian who has grown intellectually stagnant by not questioning libertarian theory and the potential faults thereof.But this book is not supposed to be a harsh shock, it introduces the reader to unanswered faults in libertarian theory before introducing solutions that are shocking in themselves. To this end, the book also includes a lot of libertarian theory that can offer a somewhat unique perspective on topics such as taxation and banking. Even for a reader with no sympathies for the far-right, this book offers an intellectually thrilling worldview.Furthermore, there is a distinct lack of theoretical content for a seemingly new libertarian far-right philosophy. It is undeniable that in the age of the internet, radical niche philosophies can easily form and intermingle. This is one reason why there is a significant amount of influence on libertarians from elements of the far-right. This book aims to provide an intelligent backbone to this emergent worldview.

From Aristocracy to Monarchy to Democracy
Author: Hans-Hermann Hoppe
Publisher: Ludwig von Mises Institute
ISBN: 1610166353
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 77
Book Description
In this tour de force essay, Hans-Hermann Hoppe turns the standard account of historical governmental progress on its head. While the state is an evil in all its forms, monarchy is, in many ways, far less pernicious than democracy. Hoppe shows the evolution of government away from aristocracy, through monarchy, and toward the corruption and irresponsibility of democracy to have been identical with the growth of the leviathan state. There is hope for liberty, as Hoppe explains, but it lies not in reversing these steps, but rather through secession and decentralization. This pocket-sized, eye-opening pamphlet is ideal for tabling, conferences, or sharing with friends. It can revolutionize the way a reader sees society and the state.

Religious scholar Hart argues that contemporary antireligious polemics are based not only upon conceptual confusions but upon facile simplifications of history and provides a powerful antidote to the New Atheists' misrepresentations of the Christian past.

A Short History of Man
Author: Hans-Hermann Hoppe
Publisher: Ludwig von Mises Institute
ISBN: 1610165918
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
A Short History of Man: Progress and Decline represents nothing less than a sweeping revisionist history of mankind, in a concise and readable volume. Dr. Hans-Hermann Hoppe skillfully weaves history, sociology, ethics, and Misesian praxeology to present an alternative — and highly challenging — view of human economic development over the ages. As always, Dr. Hoppe addresses the fundamental questions as only he can. How do family and social bonds develop? Why is the concept of private property so vitally important to human flourishing? What made the leap from a Malthusian subsistence society to an industrial society possible? How did we devolve from aristocracy to monarchy to social democratic welfare states? And how did modern central governments become the all-powerful rulers over nearly every aspect of our lives? Dr. Hoppe examines and answers all of these often thorny questions without resorting to platitudes or bowdlerized history. This is Hoppe at his best: calmly and methodically skewering sacred cows.

Tolstoy's Political Thought
Author: Alexandre Christoyannopoulos
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000650987
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910), besides writing famous novels such as War and Peace, also wrote on political issues, especially later in his life, putting forward a political philosophy which might be termed 'Christian anarchism'. This book provides a comprehensive overview of Tolstoy’s political thought. It outlines in a systematic way Tolstoy’s thought, which was originally articulated unsystematically in diverse, often informal writing, such as pamphlets, letters, and speeches, as well as books, and in his novels, where Tolstoy’s thinking is put forward implicitly through the novels’ characters. The book sets out the basic themes of Tolstoy’s political thought: his acceptance of the teachings of Jesus, his criticism of the way in which Jesus’ teachings have been relayed by the church through traditional creeds and dogma, his passionate rejection of political violence by both the state and those working for reform, his plea for a nonviolent response to violence and injustice, and his call for society to forego its institutional shackles and enact a community of peace, love, and justice. The book also includes background information on the Russia of Tolstoy’s time, including the religious context, and a discussion of how Tolstoy’s political thought has been received by his admirers, who included Gandhi, and his critics.

Anarchism and Education
Author: Judith Suissa
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134194633
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Although there have been a few historical accounts of the anarchist school movement, there has been no systematic work on the philosophical underpinnings of anarchist educational ideas - until now. Anarchism and Education offers a philosophical account of the neglected tradition of anarchist thought on education. Although few anarchist thinkers wrote systematically on education, this analysis is based largely on a reconstruction of the educational thought of anarchist thinkers gleaned from their various ethical, philosophical and popular writings. Primarily drawing on the work of the nineteenth century anarchist theorists such as Bakunin, Kropotkin and Proudhon, the book also covers twentieth century anarchist thinkers such as Noam Chomsky, Paul Goodman, Daniel Guerin and Colin Ward. This original work will interest philosophers of education and educationalist thinkers as well as those with a general interest in anarchism.
