It sounds like a great research and writing project, and I look forward to seeing the finished product. Have you seen Roderick Long’s article on libertarian class theory? It dovetails very closely with Sciabarra’s work on dialectical libertarianism.
Kevin,
I’ve seen that article mentioned on your website but have never been able to track it down on the net.
To my knowledge, it’s not available on the net. I’ve been wanting to read it for quite some time myself. The library I used to work at carried the journal that it was published in, but didn’t start carrying it until the year after it was published.
Maybe you’ll have better luck with a university library in your neck of the woods.
I also look forward to reading what you come up with.
Freeman,
Thanks!
I’ve had a chaotic time lately but I plan on getting a lot of work done after I finish this semester of college.
