David Boaz

The scholarly David Boaz was also a ferocious lion. His rumble, resonating in lecture halls, conference centers, and even people's living rooms, roused a generation to the power of personal freedom.

Delve into the fundamental ideas that support his ideology, such as the importance of reason and the value of personal freedom. Get a handle on the reasoning that set him on a path toward a more liberated society and prolonged his stru...

The Libertarian Reader

The first collection of seminal writings on a movement that is rapidly changing the face of American politics, The Libertarian Reader links some of the most fertile minds of our time to a centuries-old commitment to freedom, self-determination, and opposition to intrusive government. A movement that today counts among its supporters Steve Forbes, Nat Hentoff, and P.J. O'Rourke, libertarianism joins a continuous thread of political reason running throughout history. Writing in 1995 about the large numbers of Americans who say they'd welcome a third party, David Broder of The Washington Post commented, "The distinguishing characteristic of these potential independent voters—aside from their ...

The Libertarian Mind

A revised, updated, and retitled edition of David Boaz’s classic book Libertarianism: A Primer, which was praised as uniting “history, philosophy, economics and law—spiced with just the right anecdotes—to bring alive a vital tradition of American political thought that deserves to be honored today” (Richard A. Epstein, University of Chicago). Libertarianism—the philosophy of personal and economic freedom—has deep roots in Western civilization and in American history, and it’s growing stronger. Two long wars, chronic deficits, the financial crisis, the costly drug war, the campaigns of Ron Paul and Rand Paul, the growth of executive power under Presidents Bush and Obama, and t...

The Politics of Freedom

During recent election cycles, pundits have colored everything in red and blue. But according to David Boaz, the old labels of left and right don’t tell us much any more. What we are witnessing is a contest of "Big-Government Conservatives" vs. "Big-Government Liberals." In The Politics of Freedom David Boaz takes on both liberals and conservatives who seek to impose their own partisan agendas on the whole country. He explains the growing libertarian vote in America, how the Republicans became the tax-and-spend party, how the Democrats joined the Republicans in foreign adventurism, the betrayal of our constitutional rights, and everything from gay marriage and the nanny state to taxes and ...

Market Liberalism

What are the appropriate public policies for America as it approaches the coming century? The signs are all around. A market-liberal revolution is sweeping the planet, from Eastern Europe to Latin America to Asia, where governments are selling off state enterprises, cutting taxes, deregulating business, and showing new respect for property rights and freedom of choice. The two dozen essays in this book discuss how to bring the market-liberal revolution to the United States and explain how for-profit companies will revolutionize education, how deregulation of medical care can lower prices, how America can save $150 billion a year in military spending, how property rights can fix the environme...
