  • Markets Not Capitalism Explores the Gap Between Radically Freed Markets and the Capitalist-Controlled Markets That Prevail Today
    individualist anarchism against bosses, inequality, corporate power, and structural poverty Edited by Gary Chartier & Charles W. Johnson Individualist anarchists believe in mutual exchange, not economic privilege. They believe in freed markets, not capitalism. They defend a distinctive response to the challenges of ending global capitalism and achieving social justice: eliminate the political privileges that prop up capitalists. Massive concentrations of wealth, rigid economic hierarchies, and unsustainable modes of production are not the results of the market form, but of markets deformed and rigged by a network of state-secured controls and privileges to the business class. Markets Not Capitalism explores the gap between radically freed markets and the capitalist-controlled markets that prevail today. It explains how liberating market exchange from state capitalist privilege can abolish structural poverty, help working people take control over the conditions of their labor, and redistribute wealth and social power. Featuring discussions of socialism, capitalism, markets, ownership, labor struggle, grassroots privatization, intellectual property, health care, racism, sexism, and environmental issues, this unique collection brings together classic essays by Cleyre, and such contemporary innovators as Kevin Carson and Roderick Long. It introduces an eye-opening approach to radical social thought, rooted equally in libertarian socialism and market anarchism. “We on the left need a good shake to get us thinking, and these arguments for market anarchism do the job in lively and thoughtful fashion.” – Alexander Cockburn, editor and publisher, Counterpunch “Anarchy is not chaos; nor is it violence. This rich and provocative gathering of essays by anarchists past and present imagines society unburdened by state, markets un-warped by capitalism.

  • Liberty's Belle Lived in Harlingen Norman Rozeff
    Liberty's Belle Lived in Harlingen Norman Rozeff Almost to a person those of the "baby boomer" generation will fondly remember the pop- ular TV series, "Little House on the Prairie." Few, however, will have known of Rose Wilder Lane, her connection to this series, to Harlingen, and more importantly her ac- complishments. Rose Wilder Lane was born December 5, 1886 in De Smet, Dakota Territory. She was the first child of Almanzo and Laura Ingalls Wilder. Aha, this stirs a memory; isn't the latter the author of the "Little House on the Prairie" book series for children? Yes, indeed. Rose also lived the hardship life, similar to her mother's as portrayed on television. Be- fore the age of two she was sent away to her mother's parents for several months after her parents contracted diphtheria, then a deadly disease. In August 1889 she became a sister but only for the short period that her baby brother survived without ever being given a name. Rose was to have no other siblings. When a fire destroyed their home soon after the baby's death and repeated crop failures compounded the Wilder family miseries, the Wilders moved from the Dakotas to his parent's home in Spring Valley, Minnesota. In their search for a settled life and livelihood, the Wilders in 1891 went south to Westville, Florida to live with Laura's cousin Peter. Still unhappy in these surroundings, the family returned to De Smet in 1892 and lived in a rented house. Here Grandma Ingalls took care of Rose while Laura and Almanzo worked.

  • Radical Reprints Roderick T. Long the Athenian Constitution
    The Athenian Constitution: Government by Jury and Referendum Roderick T. Long Radical Reprints The Economics of Anarchy: A Study of the Industrial Type I have repeatedly been asked to write a brief sum- mary of the aims sought by Anarchists which could be read and discussed in the various clubs that are studying economic questions. With this end in view the following pages are submitted, trusting that they may be a help to those who are earnestly seeking the rationale of the Labor Question. — Dyer D. Lum. Available at: sonv.libertarianleft.org/distro/ Place your ad above — Email: [email protected] The Athenian Constitution: Government by Jury and Referendum ”Each single one of our citizens, in all the manifold aspects of life, is able to show himself the rightful lord and owner of his own person, and do this, moreover, with exceptional grace and exceptional versatility.” ~ Perikles (c. 495 - 429 BC) Athens: A Neglected Model Those engaged in the project of designing a constitution for a new libertarian nation can learn from the example of previous free or semi-free nations. In previous issues of Formulations we have accordingly surveyed sample consti- tutions ranging from the mediæval Icelandic system of competing assemblies to the U. S. Articles of Confederation. One example that is not often consid- ered when libertarians discuss constitutional design is ancient Athens. In a way this is not surprising. Athens in the fifth and fourth centuries BC is famous for being the purest, most extreme form of democracy in human history. Most libertarians get understandably nervous at the thought of unlim- ited majority rule.

  • Anarchy Defended: Reply to Schneider
    JOURNAL OF LIBERTARIAN STUDIES S JL VOLUME 21, NO. 1 (SPRING 2007): 111–121 ANARCHY DEFENDED: REPLY TO SCHNEIDER RODERICK T. LONG JORDAN SCHNEIDER’S ARTICLE1 IS directed in part against a talk I gave in 2004 titled “Libertarian Anarchism: Responses to Ten Objections,”2 in which I defended the moral and practical superior- ity of stateless over state-based legal systems. Schneider is uncon- vinced, maintaining that market anarchism3 will be unworkable because of the absence of legal objectivity. Unfortunately, it’s not entirely clear to me what Schneider takes a legal system’s objectivity to consist in, or why this feature is supposed to be available to states but not to anarchies. One of Schneider’s suggestions is that rights cannot be objec- tively defined without an ethical foundation. Certainly; I agree. But why is this a problem for the objectivity of anarchist legal systems? I’m astonished to learn that it’s because libertarian philosophy has “no ethics,” is “self-admittedly baseless,” and regards values as “oppressive”—an especially amazing claim for an article that lists in its bibliography both Rand and Rothbard, two libertarians (one minarchist, one anarchist) who based their accounts of rights squarely on neo-Aristotelean ethical theory4 (as do I, for that matter).5 This charge seems to be a non-starter, so I shall say no more about it. RODERICK T. LONG is professor of philosophy at Auburn University and edi- tor of the Journal of Libertarian Studies. 1See Schneider’s “Contra Anarcho-Capitalism,” on page 101 in this sympo- sium issue.

  • The Three “Furies” of Libertarianism: Rose Wilder Lane, Isabel Paterson, and Ayn Rand
    The Three “Furies” of Libertarianism: Rose Wilder Lane, Isabel Paterson, and Ayn Rand Jennifer Burns Downloaded from “They make all of us male writers look like Confederate money,” wrote the curmud- geonly cultural critic Albert Jay Nock in 1943. According to Congressman Howard Buf- fett, they “have talent that surpasses that of almost any mere male that I know in the country.” Reflecting on the rise of the Right over the course of the twentieth century, the http://jah.oxfordjournals.org/ journalist John Chamberlain noted, “If it had been left to pusillanimous males probably nothing much would have happened.” To William F. Buckley Jr., they were the “three furies” of libertarianism: the children’s author and magazine writer Rose Wilder Lane, the book critic Isabel Paterson, and the best-selling novelist Ayn Rand. Popular writers who are not typically remembered as significant intellectuals, Lane, Paterson, and Rand nonetheless exerted, according to their contemporaries, a powerful influence on the ideo- 1 logical development of the American Right. at Stanford University on December 14, 2015 But what exactly was this influence, and how should historians make sense of the striking presence of three women, bound by similar life experiences and tenuous bonds of friendship, at the core of modern antistatism? It seems more than coincidence to find three women at this pivotal moment, yet Lane, Paterson, and Rand resist easy analysis on the grounds of gender. They did not claim their womanhood as a source of particu- lar wisdom and did not identify with women as a group. The triumphant self that ran through their fiction could manifest itself in both male and female guise.
