Anarchy

"Anarchy" by Robert LeFevre is a book from the late 1950s that looks closely at freedom and what it means to live without government. The book sees government as something that gets in the way of personal freedom, challenging people to think about how a society would work without it. LeFevre, who started the Freedom School, believed in working together willingly and protecting individual freedoms. The text explores the ideas of important people who thought about anarchism, like William Godwin and Mikhail Bakunin, and compares their ideas to libertarianism. LeFevre points out that some anarchists want to get rid of both government and private property, but libertarians want to protect individual rights, especially the right to own property. The book argues that it's important to understand the difference between anarchism, and libertarianism in order to truly achieve freedom.
