Excerpt from Instead of a Book, by a Man Too Busy to Write One: A Fragmentary Exposition of Philosophical Anarchism For always in thine eyes O Liberty!Shines that high light whereby the world is saved;And though thou slay us, we will trust in thee. John Hay. In abolishing rent and interest the last vestiges of old-time slavery the Revolution abolishies at one stroke the sword of the executioner the seal of the magistrate, the club of the policeman the gauge of the exciseman the erasing-knife of the department clerk, all those insignia of Politics which young Liberty grinds beneath her heel.

Seller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a radical stance on the nature of the State and its relationship to the individual, arguing that the State is inherently an aggressor, constantly seeking to expand its power and control over its citizens. The author, drawing upon the ideas of thinkers like Adam Smith, Pierre Proudhon, and Karl Marx, develops a strong critique of both traditional political philosophies and the emerging socialist movements of the day. The book examines the economic roots of inequality, arguing that monopolies and state-sanctioned privileges are at the heart of the problem, leading to the exploitation of labor and the enrichment of the few. In this context, the author presents a powerful and often controversial argument for Anarchism, a philosophy that seeks to abolish the State and replace it with a system of voluntary cooperation and individual sovereignty. While the bookââ â¢s central theme is political, it also delves into the realms of ethics, morality, and economics, offering a profound and thought-provoking analysis of the complex relationship between the individual, society, and the State. This book will challenge your understanding of the world, and force you to confront the fundamental questions of power, freedom, and the nature of human society.
