  • Libertarian Feminism: Can This Marriage Be Saved? Roderick Long Charles Johnson 27 December 2004
    Libertarian Feminism: Can This Marriage Be Saved? Roderick Long Charles Johnson 27 December 2004 Let's start with what this essay will do, and what it will not. We are both convinced of, and this essay will take more or less for granted, that the political traditions of libertarianism and feminism are both in the main correct, insightful, and of the first importance in any struggle to build a just, free, and compassionate society. We do not intend to try to justify the import of either tradition on the other's terms, nor prove the correctness or insightfulness of the non- aggression principle, the libertarian critique of state coercion, the reality and pervasiveness of male violence and discrimination against women, or the feminist critique of patriarchy. Those are important conversations to have, but we won't have them here; they are better found in the foundational works that have already been written within the feminist and libertarian traditions. The aim here is not to set down doctrine or refute heresy; it's to get clear on how to reconcile commitments to both libertarianism and feminism—although in reconciling them we may remove some of the reasons that people have had for resisting libertarian or feminist conclusions. Libertarianism and feminism, when they have encountered each other, have most often taken each other for polar opposites. Many 20th century libertarians have dismissed or attacked feminism—when they have addressed it at all—as just another wing of Left-wing statism; many feminists have dismissed or attacked libertarianism—when they have addressed it at all—as either Angry White Male reaction or an extreme faction of the ideology of the liberal capitalist state.

Griffis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree in History The University of Toledo May 2014 This dissertation analyzes the construction of divergent definitions of womanhood of politically and socially rightist and conservative women and how those definitions affected their stance for or against the Equal Rights Amendment. It argues that the way a woman defined her gender identity informed her position on the proposed amendment. Challenging the idea that all rightist and conservative women held a monolithic political ideology, this dissertation evaluates different women and women’s organizations of the right to show that this was not the case. Instead, some of these groups and individuals supported the ERA while opposed it.

  • “Radicals for Capitalism
    ““RRAADDIICCAALLSS FFOORR CCAAPPIITTAALLIISSMM”” Ayn Rand and Youth During the 1960s ANDRINA TRAN DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY There is a fundamental conviction which some people never acquire, some hold only in their youth, and a few hold to the end of their days – the conviction that ideas matter. In one’s youth that conviction is experienced as a self-evident absolute, and one is unable fully to believe that there are people who do not share it. That ideas matter means that knowledge matters, that truth matters, that one’s mind matters. And the radiance of that certainty, in the process of growing up, is the best aspect of youth. –Ayn Rand CONTENTS Acknowledgements 2 INTRODUCTION 2 I THE QUIETEST REVOLUTION IN HISTORY 11 II MARKETING OBJECTIVISM 24 III THE THRILL OF TREASON 32 IV LIFE, LIBERTY, PROPERTY: Persuasion and the Draft 38 V LIBERTARIANS RISING 46 EPILOGUE: MEMORY & HISTORY 52 Bibliography 55 Appendix 61 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Even a paper pertaining to egoism could not have come into existence without the generous support of so many others.

  • Revisiting the Tensions Between Libertarianism and Feminism in Light of Fourth Wave Feminism
    Crossing the Divide: Revisiting the Tensions Between Libertarianism and Feminism in Light of Fourth Wave Feminism Abigail Louise Hazrati January 2020 Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Master of Applied Ethics Faculty of Humanities University of Utrecht Content Warning This thesis will engage with subjects that some readers might find upsetting. This includes discussions of sexual harassment, sexual violence, and domestic abuse. Care has been taken to interact with these subjects delicately and respectfully. Descriptions of instances of violence have been avoided. Readers are nevertheless advised to proceed with care. - i - Abstract Since 2013, some academics have noted a surge in feminist activity in Britain; leading them to announce the arrival of fourth wave feminism. A defining feature of fourth wave feminism is social media activism; though which women have begun to ‘call out’ individuals and institutions who perpetuate sexist and discriminatory practices and ideologies. While there appears to have been a recurrence of the collectivist attitudes that dominated second wave feminism, the fourth wave has a complex relationship with neoliberalism and neoconserviticism; both of which encourage individualism and free markets. It is therefore interesting to consider how pro-market feminist theories relate to the aims and concerns of fourth wave feminists. In this thesis, I explore whether the pro-market discipline of libertarian feminism can be part of the fourth wave. In particular, I explore whether it is able to address the concerns of fourth wave feminists. - ii - Acknowledgements I owe the deepest gratitude to my advisor, Dick Timmer, whose lecture inspired the topic of this paper and who provided continuous support and stimulating guidance throughout my research and writing.
