Liberty, Property and Markets

Reviews / Votes

'Daniel Attas presents one of the most sustained and insightful critiques of libertarianism to date. After analyzing the notions of freedom and property rights, he argues against the thesis of self-ownership, the foundational right to appropriate unowned natural resources, and the right to one's products. Although I disagree with many of his conclusions, his arguments are profound and require a careful response from libertarians.' Peter Vallentyne, Department of Philosophy, University of Missouri 'The great virtue of this book lies in its detailed approach, something to which it is impossible to do justice in a short review... If this book is anything to go by, Ashgate are to be congratulated on their endeavour to bring 'high quality research monograph publishing back into focus'.' Political Studies Review
