Sommario/riassunto

Anthony de Jasay's work has been enormously influential, describing both a theoretical philosophical model for a stateless, liberal, free market order and offering analysis of and solutions to many of the



technical economic problems associated with such a vision of society. In this book, ten significant scholars in philosophy and political economy pay tribute to the man and his work in a series of essays at once both respectful and critical.
