Description

This book is about institutionalised violence. Our societies have not banned the use of force. True to the Hobbesian paradigm we are deemed to have renounced our right to defend life and property and to have entrusted a sovereign, the State, with that protective function. Does the arrangement work? It would, many claim, if only the wisest, most peaceful and benevolent among us ran the state. Common sense, however, tells us that an institution established on coercion and propped up by the army, police, prison system, border guards, censors and the enforced levy of taxes is bound to corrupt rather than enlighten whoever governs it. And, indeed, history shows that political power acts as a magnet on the unscrupulous. Should we resign ourselves to living forever under coercion? This book spells out reasons not to despair. Solidly founded on the works of Aristotle, Aquinas, Locke, Marx, Ayn Rand and Austrian School of Economics, these 'bricks of freedom' build a powerful case for alternative social structures. The 21 tightly argumented essays, originally presented as lectures at international conferences, explore new ideas on democracy, economics, the justice system, fair trade and the arts, in a clear and highly readable style. Don't give in to pessimism and resentment. Enjoy this book.
