Libertarian Views on Police and Courts of Law by Murray Newton Rothbard

Mateusz Buczek

Abstract


In this article were presented proposals of Murray Newton Rothbard, one of the main representatives of libertarianism, on the police and the courts – services which are regarded by many as necessary to maintain within the equally necessary – in their opinion – the state. As we know, the state does not have its own money, in addition to those taken from their citizens by force in the form of taxes. Rothbard solutions are thus intended to prevent coercion, both on the side of using the services and those who provide these services. Due to the nature of libertarian ideas, which are characterized by simplicity and a strong emphasis on the element of freedom, this article is contained in the short form and does not indicate the specific imperatives of action.
