Rothbard’s treatise
of applied libertarian
political and economic
theory fueled the current
intellectual revolt against
the centralized social and
economic management of
the welfare–warfare state.
He argues that
egalitarian theory always
results in a politics of
statist control because it
is founded on revolt against
the ontological structure of
reality itself, an attempt to
replace what exists with a
romantic image of an idealized
primitive state of nature.
The implications of this
are worked out on topics such as market economics,
child rights, environmentalism, feminism, foreign policy,
redistribution, and a host of other issues that are driving public
debate today. The Mises Institute’s edition is reset, and includes
a new introduction by David Gordon, along with the original
introduction by Roy A. Childs, Jr., as well as an additional essay
not included in the original.
