The Routledge Handbook of Libertarianism

The Routledge Handbook of Libertarianism helps readers fully examine libertarian (sometimes also called classical liberal) thinking on justice, institutions, interpersonal ethics, government, and political economy. The 31 chapters--all written specifically for this volume--are organized into five parts: Libertarianism in Conversation with Other Theories, Questioning Libertarian Principles, The Role of Property and the Market, What is the Role of the State?, and Applied Libertarian Issues. As a whole, the Handbook provides a comprehensive, clear-eyed look at what libertarianism has been and could be, and why it matters.
