Eigendom is een onmisbare basis van maatschappelijke vrijheid.

Dr. Hoppe’s book The Economics and Ethics of Private Property is among the most important modern contributions to libertarian thought. Hoppe, like Rothbard, connects laissez-faire economics to normative libertarian theory with laserlike precision and inexorable logic. Property isn’t just a social construct determined by legislative fiat, but rather a necessary component of self-ownership and the foundation of a free society. Hoppe details many of the arguments made in the book during a talk entitled “A World Without Theft”, delivered at a Mises Institute event in 2006. This is a fantastic talk you won’t want to miss.
