Realizing Freedom
Readers looking for a guide to classical liberal thought will benefit from this extensive and well-considered essay, compiled by a leading authority in the field. For more than 25 years, Tom Palmer has lived his life according to a very simple ideal: Liberty is for everyone. Academics debate the finer points of political theory, but liberty belongs to us all, and everyone can benefit from it. Realizing Freedom is a testament to that ideal.

The essays in this volume are drawn from two and a half decades of work, and they reflect the many levels on which Palmer has promoted individual liberty.
Why Liberty
The ideas presented in this book are about an alternative view of politics: a politics, not of force, but of persuasion, of live-and-let-live, of rejecting both subjugation and domination. The essays are mainly written by younger people who are active in the Students For Liberty, a very dynamic and exciting international movement. They offer an introduction to the philosophy by which most human beings live their lives on a day-to-day basis. Being a libertarian means not only refraining from harming the rights of other people, namely, respecting the rules of justice with regards to other people, but also equipping yourself mentally to understand what it means for people to have rights, how rights create the foundation for peaceful social cooperation, and how voluntary societies work. It means standing up, not only for your own freedom, but for the freedom of other people.
Development with Dignity
At a time when the global development industry is under more pressure than ever before, this book argues that an end to poverty can only be achieved by prioritizing human dignity. Unable to adequately account for the roles of culture, context, and local institutions, today’s outsider-led development interventions continue to leave a trail of unintended consequences, ranging from wasteful to even harmful. This book shows that increased prosperity can only be achieved when people are valued as self-governing agents. Social orders that recognize autonomy and human dignity unleash enormous productive energy. This in turn leads to the mobilization of knowledge-sharing that is critical to innova...

So when England and City footballing hero Sam Roberts is reported missing the day after Danny saw him being taken, blindfolded, into the bowels of the City FC stadium late at night, he's determined to get to the bottom of it. But is Danny getting into something he can't handle?
Self-Control Or State Control? You Decide
The libertarian philosophy is often associated only with economics or with resistance to social norms. In this path-breaking book, editor Tom Palmer weaves together a series of essays, theoretical and practical, showing how to live a happier life, be a better person, and enjoy the benefits of freedom and responsibility. Case studies with scientific, historical, and philosophical insights are offered to create a handbook for free people who want to live in free, prosperous, cooperative, peaceful, and just societies. For those looking for alternatives to the Nanny State, the Prohibitionist State, and the Welfare State, this book is a good place to start.
Realizing Freedom
The author examines 33 papers published over the past few decades, that discuss and promote capitalist libertarianism as the best means to achieve freedom, justice, and social order. The primary themes that emerge are the connections between liberty, rights, and the rule of law; the historical rootedness of abstractly formulated accounts of rights and the importance of identifying narratives of liberty for each culture; the independent (non-materialist) role of ideas; the challenges of implementing libertarian proposals for reform and improvement; and the importance of action--Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
