Freedom, Society, and the State by David Osterfeld (an excerpt)

How has anarchism evolved over time?

David Osterfeld’s 1986 “Freedom, Society, and the State” seeks to answer this very question.

From the author:

“Anarchist thought has traditionally been associated with socialism and has centered its attack not only on the state but on the market as well. Over the last two decades, however, there has emerged a notably new form of anarchism, commonly termed individualist anarchism or anarcho-capitalism which, rather than abolish the market, desires to universalize its scope. This variant of anarchism is the principle focus of this study.”
