ARGUING FOR LIBERTY IN A SECULAR AGE

Joseph S. Fulda

Economic Affairs, 2009, vol. 29, issue 4, 83-84

Abstract: This article reviews Michael Levin's philosophical argument that minimal government is necessary and that, by the same reasoning, more‐than‐minimal government is unnecessary. Levin's argument does not appeal to any concept of rights, so can easily be used with those for whom rights‐based arguments require belief in a transcendent deity.
