PLEASE PLEASE fill out a very brief survey for us!!!
https://survey.libsyn.com/openargs
In this week’s episode, we tackle the legal and philosophical issues underlying libertarianism. We take on such issues as : what is “property,” why is it a right, and is it cognizable as a side-constraint against government action? At the end of the day, Andrew and Thomas render a definitive opinion on libertarianism as a political philosophy.
In our opening segment, we answer an anonymous listener question: what exactly is this ‘jurisprudence’ word that Andrew keeps throwing around?
And in our closing segment, “Breakin’ Down the Law” returns as we delve a little deeper into something we discussed in OA19 — what exactly is a pardon, anyway?

- You can buy Nozick’s Anarchy, State and Utopia on Amazon…
- …but to be honest, his best work is the sadly out-of-print Socratic Puzzles (which contains the retraction referenced on the show).
