In this episode, CJ discusses 12 authors who (in his opinion) deserve to be more widely known & read among libertarian/anarchist/etc type people. Most of these authors would not actually identify as "libertarians" or "anarchists," but all have a strong independent streak & have at least some views & attitudes that overlap with libertarianism and/or anarchism. Furthermore, all of them are great writers in their respective genres. Join CJ as he discusses: Montesquieu Alexis de Tocqueville Jose Ortega y Gasset John Dos Passos Jacques Ellul Jane Jacobs Gore Vidal Edward Abbey Mike Resnick James C. Scott Kirkpatrick Sale F.
