Episode notes

Milton Friedman's son and Patrick Friedman's father, David Director Friedman, is a prominent anarcho capitalist thinker. And a leading medieval recreational reenactor who among other things has been performing as this Berber poet named Duke Cariadoc of the bow. He helped create in Northern Pennsylvania an event called the Enchanted Ground where you sort of set up a rope and inside of that space, you have to exist like you're in the Middle Ages.

Featuring Quinn Slobodian on Crack-Up Capitalism: Market Radicals and the Dream of a World Without Democracy. Radical libertarians, including anarcho-capitalists like Murray Rothbard, envision a world of micro-polities governed by private property and contract. In fact, we already live in their world, a world of zones—places where special rules tailor-made for capitalists prevail over the ordinary laws of the nation-state.
