Arguments for liberty - Aaron Ross Powell

What's the best political system? What standards should we use to decide, and why? Arguments for Liberty is a guide to thinking about these questions. Two schools of thought have long dominated libertarian discussions
about ethics: utilitarianism and natural rights. Those two theories are
important, but they're not the only ways people think about ethics and
political philosophy. In Arguments for Liberty, you'll find a broader approach to libertarianism. In each of Arguments for Liberty's nine chapters a different
political philosopher discusses how his or her preferred school of
thought judges political institutions and why libertarianism best meets
that standard. Though they end up in the same place, the paths they take
diverge in fascinating ways. Readers will find in these pages not only an excellent introduction
to libertarianism, but also a primer on some of the most important
political and ethical theories.
