  • 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.

  • Ancap Conversion Therapy
    AnCap Conversion Therapy By @ C ats A nd K alash Introduction This is a list of videos, essays, and books to introduce AnCaps and other Right-Libertarians to Left- Libertarianism. Not ALL opinions held by the listed authors and creators reflect my personal beliefs. My intention with this document is to provide enough introductory resources to dispel misconceptions Right- Libertarians may have about the left and allow them to see things from a more left-wing perspective. Yes the title is a little cheeky but it’s all in good fun. I ask any Right-Libertarians who come across this document view the listed content with an open mind. I think it’s important we all try to scrutinize our own beliefs and ask ourselves if our current positions are truly consistent with the values we hold, values of liberty, justice, etc. I also ask that you don’t watch just one video and come to a conclusion, this is a list for a reason. You don’t have to read/watch everything in one sitting, you can bookmark or download the list and come back to different parts of it later. What is Left-Libertarianism? “Left-Libertarianism” can be used to refer to different things, but in the context of this document it refers to a specific group of ideologies or tendencies which heavily revolve around Libertarian values and to varying extents, free markets. Mutualism, Individualist-Anarchism, and Agorism can all be considered “Left-Libertarian” tendencies. Some may also include Georgism and Left-Rothbardianism in that list as well.

  • Campaign Finance Reform Is a Voting Rights Issue: the Campaign Finance System As the Latest Incarnation of the Politics of Exclusion
    African-American Law & Policy Report VOLUME 5 2002 NUMBER 1 ARTICLE Campaign Finance Reform is a Voting Rights Issue: The Campaign Finance System as the Latest Incarnation of the Politics of Exclusion John Powell* I. INTRODUCTION Though the iron is hot for campaign finance reform,1 at the political forefront the issue is framed one-dimensionally. The Black Congressional Caucus' ambivalent support of the recent reform bills proposed in Congress illustrates that these reform measures may fail to address the distinct impli- cations of the campaign finance system for communities of color.2 Conserv- * Professor of Law, University of Minnesota Law School, and Executive Director, Institute on Race and Poverty. 1.

Reform is needed but the current debate is too narrow. This paper will address the needs of low-income communities with particular focus on communities of color.

  • Gary Chartier — I’M Associate Pro- Fessor of Law and Business Ethics at La Sierra University and a Left-Wing Market Anarchist
    Gary Chartier — I’m Associate Pro- fessor of Law and Business Ethics at La Sierra University and a left-wing market anarchist. I take anarchism to be the proj- ect of doing without the state. I’d prefer a stateless society in which people enjoyed property rights and were free to structure relationships through exchange. But, un- der anarchy, different communities could reasonably implement different property rules and a community's courts could rightly enforce rights some market anar- chists might want upheld in other ways. Privation could be significantly reduced in stateless societies, but I believe such so- cieties could and should organize income security and poverty relief systems. I call myself a leftist because I support inclu- sion and oppose subordination, deprivation, and aggressive and preventive war. I’m happy to identify as both, in something like the sense suggested by Benja- min Tucker, a socialist and a libertarian. Cambridge just published my second book, Economic Justice and Natural Law.

  • Anti-Capitalism?” Session Association of Private Enterprise Education April 12, 2010
    Gary Chartier “Free-Market Anti-Capitalism?” Session Association of Private Enterprise Education April 12, 2010 Advocates of Freed Markets Should Embrace “Anti-Capitalism” I. Introduction Defenders of freed markets have good reason to identify their position as a species of “anti- capitalism.”1 To explain why, I distinguish three potential meanings of “capitalism” before sug- gesting that people committed to freed markets should oppose capitalism in my second and third senses. Then, I offer some reasons for using “capitalism” as a label for some of the social arrange- ments to which freed-market advocates should object. II. Three Senses of “Capitalism” There are at least three distinguishable senses of “capitalism”:2 captalism1 an economic system that features property rights and voluntary exchanges of goods and services capitalism2 an economic system that features a symbiotic relationship between big busi- ness and government 1For “freed markets,” see William Gillis, “(The Freed Market),” Human Iterations (n.p., July 31, 2007) <http://williamgillis.blogspot.com/2007/07/freed-market-one-of-tactics-ive-taken.html> (Jan. 2, 2010); for “free market anti-capitalism,” see Kevin A.

  • Natural Law and Non-Aggression
    1216-2574 / USD 20.00 ACTA JURIDICA HUNGARICA © 2010 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest 51, No 2, pp. 79–96 (2010) DOI: 10.1556/AJur.51.2010.2.1 GARY CHARTIER* Natural Law and Non-Aggression Abstract. Natural law theory can render the so-called “non-aggression principle” (NAP), which prohibits the initiation of force against person or property, intelligible and can ground a robust, even if not exceptionless, version of the principle. Natural law and natural rights theories share common roots, but are often seen as divergent, if not antagonistic. But I believe it can plausibly be maintained that claims about natural rights fi nd their home within the context of more comprehensive natural law theories. I seek to illustrate this claim by showing how a central claim about natural rights can be defended using the resources provided by the best contemporary version of natural law theory. I consider the signifi cance of the NAP and its place in natural rights theory. I outline the contours of one contemporary natural law position, the new classical natural law (NCNL) theory. I go on to indicate what form I suspect a version of the NAP framed using the categories provided by the NCNL theory might take. Keywords: natural law, non-aggression principle, natural rights, Finnis, John, Rothbard, Murray, property I. Introduction Natural law theory can render the so-called “non-aggression principle” (NAP), which prohibits the initiation of force against person or property, intelligible and can ground a robust, even if not exceptionless, version of the principle.
