ANA, ALEXES KRISTA: Alexes Kriste Ana - liked my 1.7.15 Facebook remark:
Anarchy Admin: Nothing Gets Censored Page shared your post. Facebook, 4.10.16. - PANARCHY, POLYARCHY, PERSONAL LAW OPTIONS, INDIVIDUAL SOVEREIGNTY & SECESSIONS, VOLUNTARISM, LAISSEZ FAIRE, FREE MARKETS, COMPETITION & CHOICES IN EVERY SPHERE, FOR ALL IDEOLOGIES, RELIGIONS & SECTS, FOR ALL THEIR BELIEVERS, BUT ALL ONLY WITHOUT A TERRITORIAL MONOPOLY & ANY POWER OVER PEACEFUL DISSENTERS, THUS GENUINE SELF-DETERMINATION OR SELF-GOVERNANCE, WITH FULL EXTERRITORIAL AUTONOMY FOR ALL MARKETS & FREE ENTERPRISES, WHICH PROVIDE PUBLIC SERVICES OR PACKAGE DEALS OF THEM, COMBINED WITH CONSUMER SOVEREIGNTY TOWARDS THEM, FULL FREEDOM OF ASSOCIATION, CONTRACT & EXPERIMENTATION: That would allow all kinds of movements, ideologies, religions and isms to do their things among their volunteers, but always at their own cost and risk only, regardless of whether they are “progressives”, “conservatives”, reactionaries, racists or totalitarians (in their own affairs), personal law choices, signed social contracts, policies, institutions and actions, as long as they are tolerant towards tolerant outsiders, all those, who would then also do their own and different things but only among their members, however wrongful or foolish outsiders believe them to be or even know that they are. Other people are not to be saved from their own choices. There would be xyz different systems, all freely chosen by volunteers, for all kinds of anarchism, libertarianism and statism, for “progressives”, “conservatives”, “reactionaries”, “nihilists” and people with the mentality of mere subjects, serfs and slaves, always confined to their self-chosen networks, their internal affairs. Protectionists could then do their things among themselves and so could Free Traders – likewise all the other affinity groups, networks, clubs and social insurance companies into which people would freely choose to sort themselves into, at least for the time being, with the secession option, i.e. voluntarism, still open to all of them. Freedom for the wise and informed as well as for the fools and prejudiced to do their things among themselves, just as they have done by now for centuries already in the sphere of religions, in many countries. But this freedom or choice would be extended to all kinds of political, social and economic systems as well. Experimental freedom has not yet led to sufficient enlightenment in the religious sphere but when it comes to the more concrete offers of political, social and economic systems, then the enlightening effects of free enterprise and consumer choices will tend to be as large as they are for the experimental freedom in the natural sciences and in technology as well as for the enterprise sovereignty in providing ordinary consumer goods and services and for the consumer sovereignty in choosing among these. Even foolish people can, mostly, recognize genuine bargains. Unlimited tolerance for all tolerant people but no tolerance for intolerant people! A new and much better world would certainly result, although not immediately but as fast as is possible for human beings, all of their sufficiently rational adults then being free to make their own choices in all their own affairs. Naturally, the divorce or exit or giving-notice options must always remain, as a precondition for genuine voluntarism, instead of compulsory and permanent as well as territorially imposed chains, bonds, domination or suppression, exploitation and monopolies. If you can express this more clearly, comprehensively and concisely, PLEASE, do so and sent the result to me. – I have been trying to do so for decades already. - John Zube, john.zube at bigpond.com - 4.9.16. – They frequently shared some others of my posts. – So there is at least one anarchist group with an interest in panarchy. - JZ, 30.2.17.

ANDERSON, DARRELL, reviewing: Secession, The Morality of Political Divorce from Fort Sumter to Lithuania to Quebec - by Allen Buchanan, 1991, Westview Press - Ever since the American War Among the States, political secession has been a volatile topic. Secession has become a hot topic again with the collapse of the Soviet Empire, and remains an important issue as conflicts increase across the globe. In his book Secession, The Morality of Political Divorce from Fort Sumter to Lithuania to Quebec, Allen Buchanan evaluates many arguments both for and against the idea of political secession. - Buchanan recognizes a right to secede, but he focuses on various discussions that might be used to “domesticate” [p. 104] the process. His focus is on how secession can be peacefully employed. Thus, he concludes that secession is possible but only under qualified conditions. - The book is informational but frustrating. Not because Buchanan is lacking details, but because of his presumptions. - Buchanan’s entire discussion revolves around the idea of seceding from a nation-state only to create a new nation-state. Although Buchanan acknowledges that people form nation-states through conquest and coercive behavior [p. 68], he presumes throughout his book that the concept of statism is valid. For example, he offers an argument that (the collection of people known as) a state might possess a valid title to a territory [p. 153]. Such a presumption is acceptable to many political theorists, but to anti-statists that presumption is problematic because statism is a philosophy of conquest - Buchanan can be partially excused from this restricted view of secession because the nation-state has been the dominant form of political society for several hundred years. He also can be partially excused because for thousands of years human social systems have been tied directly to land and Buchanan sees secession as a claim to a specific geographical territory [p. 11]. Thus, humans tend to be planar in their idea about where one community ends and another begins. However, as other authors have shown (for example, The Sovereign Individual, Davidson and Rees-Mogg), the concepts of contract and virtual communities bypass the traditional geographical boundaries created in the past. As the world economy continues to become more homogenized, the idea of fiat political borders becomes less meaningful. - Of course, Buchanan could claim that by “state” he meant only a geographical area and voluntary social process of government, and not the typical coercive political nation-state that exists today. However, he never affirmatively established any such distinction. - Buchanan recognizes the theory of individual secession, but he purposely limits his discussion to group secession [pp. 13–14, pp. 102–104]. That is frustrating because in some respects secession is nothing more than a fancy word describing the right to not associate. Any theorist who accepts the right to associate also must accept the right to not associate (for example, see The Structure of Liberty, Randy E. Barnett, p. 66.). Secession is a logical conclusion of the right to not associate. - Interestingly, of all the reasons Buchanan discusses that might support the idea of secession, he rejects the foundation of consent [pp. 70–73]. Buchanan recognizes consent theory, but rejects that theory with respect to justifying secession. Yet, the right to associate or not associate depends upon a theory of consent. - If secession is merely a logical conclusion to the right to not associate, then consent theory must play a role in any theory of secession. Second, if Buchanan disfavors any consent theory, then he must argue that humans do not function upon the principles of free association and voluntary exchange, but conquest. Of course, if a reader accepts Buchanan’s presumptions that 1) statism is legitimate, 2) people can be coerced into involuntary relationships, 3) people secede from one political nation-state only to form another nation-state, and 4) those people who administer the nation-state political system possess legitimacy with respect to territorial “sovereignty,” then one must accept that any consent theory is limited in nature and is ultimately defined by those who exercise power under the pretense of administering the nation-state. - The German sociologist Franz Oppenheimer called voluntary exchange the economic means of satisfying needs and wants, and forced exchange as the political means.[1] The former method implies persuasion and cooperation to obtain title to resources, the latter implies force and coercion — and often violence or the threat of violence. The former method implies moral power, the latter political power.[2] - The French Liberals of the early nineteenth century also recognized the distinction between voluntary and involuntary exchange, articulating that difference as a class struggle between warriors (bandits) and the industrious class (producers).[3] This struggle can be expressed in many ways: power vs. liberty, takers vs. producers, administrators vs. producers, force and coercion vs. persuasion and cooperation, idlers vs. laborers, predators vs. creators, moneyed elite vs. workers, exploiters vs. creators, status vs. contract, or rulers vs. the ruled. The political means is merely a way to sustain energy flows with minimal effort — the desire of getting something for nothing. - The economic means of satisfying needs and wants fully recognizes consent theory and the political means recognizes consent only in a limited manner. - Because of these underlying presumptions, Buchanan additionally presumes that the process of government is the same as the philosophy of statism. The two ideas are not the same. - The process of government is a natural and normal outgrowth of people forming groups and societies. The process of government is a desire of peaceably regulating human interaction. The philosophy of statism is an outgrowth of conquest and legal plunder. Statism is a process of violently enforcing the political means of exchange. In the 19th century Gustave de Molinari and Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, and in the 20th century Albert Jay Nock, recognized the distinction between the process of government and the philosophy of statism, but unfortunately many modern theorists have failed to maintain this distinction. - The fundamental idea behind the concept of secession is withdrawal — the desire to terminate relationships and to disassociate. Although Buchanan recognizes secession as a process of divorce, and discusses the topics of self-determination [pp. 48–52] and preserving cultures [pp. 52–64], he does not adopt the idea that divorce is another way of declaring “I don’t like you anymore — go away and leave me alone.” - In addition to relegating individual secession as impractical, possibly part of the reason Buchanan never addresses secession at the fundamental level of exercising the right to disassociate is because Buchanan embraces the idea of group rights. The idea of group rights makes sense, but only from within two perspectives: 1) a theory of consent and 2) statism. Buchanan dismisses consent theory as grounds for secession; thus, he is left with defending statism. Within that narrow focus, and because statism is a philosophy embracing the political means of satisfying needs and wants, one must acknowledge that politics is basically a process of forcibly redistributing wealth from one class of people to another. From within that context, the idea of group rights makes sense because factions and special interests always will use the political process to attack certain unique groups of people. - However, eliminate that narrow focus of statism and reject a theory of consent and the idea of group rights is then clouded. If group rights is meant to be nothing more than the idea that a group of people sharing similar beliefs can coordinate their efforts to concurrently claim the same rights, then the concept of group rights is valid. Yet, such a foundation requires a theory of consent. However, most discussions about group rights tend to focus only on the idea of native cultures and ethnicity. Nobody can deny the historical tragedies that various cultural and ethnic groups have suffered, but those tragedies are a result of people presuming statism and conquest is legitimate. Statism is a political theory justifying conquest — the political means of satisfying needs and wants. If humans depended upon free association and voluntary exchange, cultural and ethnic tragedies arguably would diminish. Thus, Buchanan fails to acknowledge a root cause for various cultural and ethnic problems and instead leans on a fragile theory of group rights. - Buchanan discusses the challenges of the “haves” seceding from the “have-nots” [pp. 16–17, pp. 114–124] and discusses discriminatory redistribution [pp. 38–45]. He recognizes that much of the unbalanced distribution of wealth might have been created through the political means of satisfying needs and wants [p. 120] and argues against the “haves” seceding if they have obtained their wealth in that manner. Yet, the simple historical observation is that all political systems enable the select group of people to accumulate wealth through force and coercion and the threat of violence. Thus, the discussion is largely academic. - Buchanan devotes an entire chapter discussing how to formulate a constitutional provision for seceding. Although such a discussion is theoretically applicable to a common covenant within private contractual communities, Buchanan’s discussion is based upon that same presumption of a constitution regulating the administrators of a nation-state. What is again missing, because of the presumption of statism, is that if people are allowed to form relationships and interact based upon free association and voluntary exchange, much of the tensions witnessed in the world would not arise and parchment barriers would be unnecessary. - Much of human tensions and conflict are a result of the philosophy of statism — an ideology of conquest, colonialism, imperialism, and the political means of satisfying needs and wants. In other words, conflict arises because people revolt against theft under the color of law. Thus, all objections against secession are based either directly or indirectly upon the various methods of coerced wealth redistribution. Those who oppose secession do so because they are beneficiaries of coerced redistribution. Thus, all objections to secession are arguments to maintain the political means of satisfying needs and wants. - Many people recognize that the political means of satisfying needs and wants is theft, and that is the only argument necessary to justify withdrawal through secession. -Within the context of his presumptions, Buchanan articulated well the many challenges and nuances of secession. As long as his presumptions are accepted, his discussion is packed with information to help readers understand those challenges. Although detailed in many respects, accepting the premise of statism and ignoring that people use that ideology to steal under the color of law leaves the book feeling frustrating and empty. By presuming that societal order is possible only through the political theory of statism limits Buchanan’s otherwise insightful effort. - More than likely, the final solution is not group secession. As Buchanan aptly demonstrates, group secession is filled with practical challenges. The better long-term transitional solution to resolving the many current human conflicts is to dramatically eliminate the mechanisms of statism. Fundamental property rights, free association, and voluntary exchange must guide human interaction. - Thus, the very topic Buchanan purposely ignored is the most likely path for resolution — a movement of continual individual secession where people bypass much of the legal plunder that statists support. Statists lose their grasp when individuals learn to effectively bypass and avoid the mechanisms used to coercively redistribute wealth. This is essentially what Herbert Spencer articulated as “The Right to Ignore the State.” From that point on, statism will drift away, and the nuances of secession no longer will be important. Although Buchanan provides an interesting discussion about a critical topic, he might have better served audiences had he addressed a root cause of human conflict — the willingness to usurp property boundaries and to justify those thefts under the color of law. From that starting point the topic of secession becomes clearer. - inis. - Terms of Use – Endnotes - [1] Oppenheimer, The State, Chapter 1, Theories of the State. - [2] Ballou, Adin, “The Superiority of Moral Power Over Political Power,” Dissenting Electorate, pp. 7–10. - [3] Weinburg, Mark, “The Social Analysis of Three Early 19th Century French Liberals: Say, Comte, and Dunoyer,” The Journal of Libertarian Studies, Vol. 2 No. 1, pp. 50–56.

ASIF, JUAN: Juan Asif
- 1 mutual friend
- liked my entry: Territorial States do not represent but repress human societies and their creativity, all too much. Genuine solutions are known at least to some but under territorial statism they cannot be freely applied among the first enlightened volunteers, who would have seceded and chosen one or the other personal law or social contract system for themselves, to realise their solution at the own risk and expense. Territorial States are, largely, prisons for innocent and radical innovators. - John Zube - He also liked my Facebook statement, 23.10.16: OPEN SOCIETY & FREE EXPERIMENTATION: An open society requires free and self-responsible experimentation among volunteers in every sphere, i.e. panarchies, polyarchies, with personal law or social contract options or exterritorial autonomy for all networks, associations or clubs of volunteers, not merely a compulsory territorial power and experimentation monopoly for just one statist and governmental system or regime, one constitution or supposedly existing “social contract”, however democratic or republican it may be, for the whole population of a country, in all its diversity, wrongly seen as a single nation or people, however diverse its ethnic groups, beliefs, convictions and ideologies may actually be. No territorial government can possibly be or become something like an almighty, all-knowing and benevolent “God” for his “children”. Those territorial statists, who believe them to be as potent, knowing and benevolent beings or institutions, are liable to experience many great and costly disappointments, imposed burdens, problems and crises and no genuine solutions to any major man-made or governmentally produced problem. Governmental and statist “solution” attempts tend to add to the problems, e.g. with their price-, wage-, interest-rate-, rent-control attempts, quotas and rationing, licensing, protectionism instead of free trade, immigration restrictions instead of free migration, suppression instead of realization of all individual rights and liberties and with the wrongful and anti-economic powers and monopolies of central banks. Even the greatest rulers, leaders and heroes are still merely fallible human beings, with limited knowledge and capacities. Their wrongful and great territorial and statist powers and offices tend to induce great delusions in their minds and also all too uncritical beliefs, hopes, expectations and submissiveness or wrongful obedience in the minds and actions of their territorial and statist subjects and victims. As a result, many important individual rights and liberties remain undeclared, unknown, or unrespected and thus unrealized. Thus alternative free experiments with other systems, all only among their volunteers, do not take place, although whatever progress we have seen, e.g. with religions and their ethics or morality and in the natural sciences and technologies, were due to free experimentation among volunteers. Under territorial statism and its governance systems free experimentation in the social sciences, undertaken only among like-minded volunteers, at their expense and risk, remains constitutionally, legally and juridically suppressed. Thus rapid progress, enlightenment, increasing prosperity and security, peace, freedom and justice are, largely, prevented and often even the opposites are “achieved”, with most statist, territorial, and authoritiarian to totalitarian regimes and systems. – JZ, 17.9.16.

ATANASOV, ATANAS: She liked my comment on Ayn Rand:

ATRICKPAY: What do you think of the political theory of panarchy? - Submitted by atrickpay on Fri, 01/02/2009 - in Daily Paul Liberty Forum - This is an interesting theory of government that I came across from reading some of Michael Rozeff's articles on LRC. - Its basic tenet is that people should be free to choose their own type of government. - So, liberals would be free to choose a welfare state; - conservatives would be free to have their police state; constitutionalists would be free to have a limited government; libertarians would be free to have self-government, etc. – Implications - This has some very interesting implications for us in the freedom movement... For example, constitutionalists shouldn't force their own ideal of limited government over everybody in the geographical area currently known as the USA. - They should work towards secession from the US government. They should establish constitutional government on the territory(ies) that they themselves possess. - What do you think? - Forgive me, maybe I misunderstand... - Submitted by jcd93 on Sat, 06/20/2009 - 18:37. Permalink -... but how could interactions between governments even possibly always work out. What if fascopolis felt that their neighbors in libertania were too unruly and dangerous. I don't know how well the nations could relate. I also see issues with land and other natural resources (especially something like emission regulations). - "Freedom is popular" - Ron Paul - "First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win." - Mahatma Gandhi – Alas, R. P. still had his doubts: Would it play out like that in practice? - Submitted by atrickpay on Fri, 01/02/2009 - Permalink - It is of course possible. But I don't think it's at all likely. Why? - Well, it probably wouldn't be economically feasible to have a collective government (ie, republic, democracy, monarchy, etc) at the household level. For economic reasons, they would probably need to be spread out on larger territories. - Furthermore, what benefit does a liberal (who wants a welfare state) get from having just a government of their own household? Remember, they want to be able to redistribute wealth within a sizable population. – Even among quite intelligent people – it does, often, take quite a while before such ideas really sink in, if at all. – Even on such a site there are only few comments so far and all too many prejudiced or under-informed. - JZ, 23.1.15.

BAUWENS, MICHEL: Dear John Zube, please let me recommend you adding Michel Bauwens as a friend. Head of the P2foundation, his constant output of content related to what I think panarchism would look like in the 21st century. He actually sees panarchism as a synonym to his concept of peer governance, informed by, for instance, progressist libertarian Kevin Carson, which I assume you already know. If you add him as a friend you would get the opportunity to follow the content he is posting, plus participating in the debates happening around it. I would be happy to see that happen. All the best in your libertarian explorations, Arthur - Arthur Tres – Facebook message. – I replied: John Zube - I wrote to him and had a look at some of his many pages. His movement tries to embrace a great variety of movements and proposals but so far I cannot agree upon his framework for them. Panarchism leaves that quite open. E.g. cooperative socialism for its advocates, the aims of the greenies practised at their expense and risk among themselves. No world governance but, possibly, a variety of world federations, all only for their volunteers. But he offers already so many pages, that exploring his system is time and energy consuming. I like his term "netarchies". Peer governance would be the equal of panarchies and societies and communities of volunteers only, all doing their own things. But panarchism e.g. includes also statism and governmentalism - but only for volunteers so inclined and at their own risk and expense. Voluntary victimhood. It seems to me that he wants to predetermine much of the contents of the new associations, just like the Tea Parties have a variety of ideas which they try to push together, even though they are not all libertarian ideas and often in conflict with libertarian ideas. Panarchies or polyarchies would sort themselves out, much more, into like-minded people just doing their own things among themselves, at their own risk and expense. Well, my first impression might be wrong or incomplete. With peer to peer relationships we would certainly bypass the territorial monopoly power ones. - Arthur Tres - : His associations are still a bit nebulous to me also due to the amount of content he's putting out, on the one hand I like that he has a plan to offer on how to reach peer governance (through the "partner state", using existing infrastructures), on the other hand he is not a libertarian, and thus does not see change possible as the result of the interaction between autonomous voluntary associations operating on a free market of governance, but rather the need for a global scale commons orientation for p2p dynamics. Emphasis on open-source and transparency, as ways of signaling to other groups intentions and actions is I think good, and yes, territorial monopoly would be overriden, also possibly "free banking" achieved by use of bitcoins and affiliated discoveries, BUT he thinks there is no way to get there by ourselves, that we need some degree of top-down global scale determination of dynamics that he wants to be part of. Can't decide if I should agree with that, but it's certainly fascinating to read, and feels like "it could work". It also makes me want to dig more into dynamical systems theory, which he consistently uses the scenarios he predicts. This short video is a very good introduction to his theory. Glad you are starting to take part in the debate.

BELL, TOM W.: tomwbell @ tomwbell.com - 1999, polycentric law article, downloaded. – JZ. - WIKIPEDIA: Polycentric law is a legal structure in which providers of legal systems compete or overlap in a given jurisdiction, as opposed to monopolistic statutory law according to which there is a sole provider of law for each jurisdiction. Devolution of this monopoly occurs by the principle of jurisprudence in which they rule according to higher law. - Tom W. Bell, former director of telecommunications and technology studies at Cato Institute,[1] now a professor of law at Chapman University School of Law in California[2] wrote "Polycentric Law," published by the Institute for Humane Studies, when he was a law student at the University of Chicago. In it he notes that others use phrases such as "privately produced law," "purely private law," and "non-monopolistic law" to describe these polycentric alternatives.[3] He outlines traditional customary law (also known as consuetudinary law) before the creation of states, including as described by Friedrich A. Hayek, Bruce L. Benson, and David D. Friedman. He mentions Anglo-Saxon customary law, church law, guild law, and merchant law as examples of polycentric law. He notes that customary and statutory law have co-existed through history, as when Roman law applied to Romans throughout the Roman Empire, but indigenous legal systems were permitted for non-Romans.[3] In "Polycentric Law in the New Millennium," which won first place in the Mont Pelerin Society's 1998 Friedrich A. Hayek Fellowship competition, Bell predicts three areas where polycentric law might develop: alternative dispute resolution, private communities, and the Internet.

BENFORD, GREGORY: PANARCHISM: Ideologies ranging from the devouring collective all the way through to the rigidly, rabidly free – all found their scripts performed. - If necessary, the ever-elusive human nature got tinkered into compliance with the demands of belief. Populations lived joyfully under crushing control. Skeptics found their every doubt confirmed. Believers dwelled in ecstasy, bonding in rapture with their God. Sybarites lounged in pleasure palaces sustained by unflagging energies and desire. Revolutionaries got to their experiments upon themselves.”– Gregory Benford, Beyond Infinity, Orbit, 2004, p 283. – The Home of SF Online.

BENNETT, JOSHUA: commenting on Geo-politics and Ukranian secession at Patriot’s Lament, May 24, 2014: Whether they want an autonomous state, or to live in an Anarchist state, what business is it of ANYONE'S except theirs? … Hans Hoppe argues for individual secession, and I like that idea. Why can't folks just live the lives they want, and be loyal, or disloyal, to whomever they want? … And more important, what business is it of anyone else? … we should ask, why should any entity be able to tell any individual who or what they must obey or follow? - America was founded on secession, shouldn't Americans support secession movements anywhere in the world? I certainly do. If humans have the right to self-ownership, we have the right to secede. If we don't have the right to secede, then we are merely slaves to the State that claims to own us. - Independence from the State should be our goal. - PATRIOT'S LAMENT RADIO SHOW - Don't forget to tune into the Patriots Lament radio show every Saturday at 9 a.m. Alaska time on KFAR 660 AM.

BENSON, BRUCE L., The Enterprise of Law: Justice Without the State - In the minds of many, the provision of justice and security has long been linked to the state. To ask whether non-state institutions could deliver those services on their own, without the aid of coercive taxation and a monopoly franchise, runs the risk of being branded as naive anarchism or dangerous radicalism. Defenders of the state’s monopoly on lawmaking and law enforcement typically assume that any alternative arrangement would favor the rich at the expense of the poor—or would lead to the collapse of social order and ignite a war. Questioning how well these beliefs hold up to scrutiny, this book offers a powerful rebuttal of the received view of the relationship between law and government. The book argues not only that the state is unnecessary for the establishment and enforcement of law, but also that non-state institutions would fight crime, resolve disputes, and render justice more effectively than the state, based on their stronger incentives.

The most informative website on this is www.panarchy.org, as far as I know. A new, more comprehensive and justified political and social science is developing out of this and there are already many hints to it online. But e.g. a comprehensive library, bibliography, abstracts and review collection, ideas archive, encyclopaedia and directory are still missing, a common links list an compilation of the refutations of the usual objections and, probably much more to achieve that. E.g. a comprehensive history of all precedents. That of personal law provides many examples. Full monetary and financial freedom are included but they do not oblige anyone or any group to practise them - as long as they do imagine that they could do better without it, in their own transactions.

BUCHANAN, JAMES: Because normative individualism indicates that the value of political order lies in its capacity to facilitate the self-chosen plans and projects of individuals, it can play a key justificatory role in political argument. As James Buchanan argues, the principle supplies the normative premise that individuals are the ultimate sovereigns in matters of social organization, that individuals are the beings who are entitled to choose the organizational-institutional structures under which they will live. In accordance with this premise, the legitimacy of social-organizational structures is to be judged against the voluntary agreement of those who are to live or are living under the arrangements that are judged. The central premise of individuals as sovereigns does allow for the delegation of decision-making authority to agents, so long as it remains understood that individuals remain as principals. The premise denies legitimacy to all social-organizational arrangements that negate the role of individuals as either sovereigns or principals.5 - NOTES: 5 James M. Buchanan, The Economics and the Ethics of Constitutional Order (Ann Arbor University of Michigan Press, 1991), p. 227, emphasis in original. - Quoted by Scott Boykin, "The Ethics of Secession," in David Gordon, ed., Secession, State and Liberty, Transaction Publishers, 1998.

CACERES, ZACHARY: Pan fan in form of FOCJ, on Facebook - Z. Caceres August 27, 2011, Professor Chartier, Thanks so much for your comment. I absolutely agree with your overall point, as I suspect would many of the other writers here. I am personally a big fan of Bruno Frey’s work on Panarchism, with de-territorialized governance in which small units contract out separate services to any other jurisdiction in a federation. - Unfortunately I don’t believe that nation-states will prove willing to open their borders regardless of how inhumane the consequences. For the same reason, they are unlikely to adopt panarchistic proposals which erode their ability to form coalitions of power through the selective provision of various goods. - That’s why I think proposals like Free Cities and Seasteading are the best bet.

CHAIRMAN YANG: Chairman Yang if he talks about books, you better damn well listen. - (01-09-2008, 10:11 PM) – www.neogaf.com/forum/showthreat.php?t=226182) - Panarchy is the only good form of government #1 - Read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panarchy - My argument is simple. Whatever government you choose to live under, you're going to have to live under the tyranny of those you disagree with. Even in a democracy, you may agree on most issues with the majority, but there are always going to be some issues where you won't. Despite that, you have no choice but to abide by the decisions of the majority (subject to constitutional constraints, of course). Everyone's a minority on some issues, and therefore everyone would be subject to many small tyrannies. - The solution is clear. There should be a "free market" of governments and countries. People should have the right to live under the system of government they want. The panarchy described in the wikipedia link is one way to do that. Of course there would be massive (perhaps insurmountable) practical barriers, but theoretically at least, panarchy (or similar systems, like simply having lots of jurisdictions in different places with the ability to easily move) strike me as the only form of organization that gives people a chance for true freedom. – Alas, the level of most responses to the above is rather depressing in this and in many other instances. – A refutations handbook on the subject is needed, as well as an A to Z and a Q *& A compilation, & a panarchist. encyclopaedia. - JZ, 23.1.15.

DALTON, CLIFF: He liked my Facebook remark: RELIGIONS: The most important moral lesson, which all religions - that have become tolerant in the sphere of religions – ought to teach, but still do not teach, is that the same kind of mutual tolerance can and should be applied to the great variety of political, economic and social systems that are aspired to by at least some volunteers for each of their diverse movements. All of them could and should be freely established and maintained by their volunteers, as long as they have any, all among themselves only and at their own risk and expense. That would be possible under personal law or full exterritorial autonomy, in the frameworks called e.g. panarchism, polyarchism and consistent voluntarism and this in all spheres now wrongfully monopolized and coercively maintained by territorial States. None of dozens of preachers, whom I encountered in my long life and tried to convey this moral, rational and realistic message to, was able to grasp it and to accept it. The reason for this continued intolerant belief and behavior among them is, probably, that all of them, in spite of their many seeming religious differences, did and do subscribe to the same popular errors, prejudices, false assumptions and conclusions in these other three spheres. This demonstrated to me that their MAIN religion is not the one they believe to have and do preach but, rather, that of territorial statism. – JZ, 10.12.14. - BELIEFS, TOLERANCE, PREACHERS, STATISM, TERRITORIALISM, PERSONAL LAW, PANARCHISM, POLYARCHISM, VOLUNTARYISM

DAUGH, JAIN: jain_daugh @ sisqutel.net - GPdB - Jain Daugh replied on Sun, May 25 2008 5:27 PM - I am interested in panarchy, in the original definition of that word - as a choice of government. [In his 1860 article “Panarchy” de Puydt, a firm supporter of laissez-faire economics, applied the concept to the individual's right to choose any form of government without being forced to move from their current locale. This is sometimes described as "extra-territorial" (or "exterritorial") since governments often would serve non-contiguous parcels of land. - wikipedia/#1] - I am not happy to see that that same word is now being 'updated' - [ In the twentieth century the term was re-coined separately by scholars in international relations to describe the notion of global governance and then by systems theorists to describe non-hierarchal organizing theories.- wikipedia/#2] - What makes me unhappy is that this term will become more referenced and referred to as a 'systems theory' rather than the valuable option for (individual) choice of government. Panarchy, as an open choice by individuals, to choose which government (and that choice includes NONE) that person prefers to live in accordance with. This seems to me to be even better than what libertarianism has to offer in its 'non-agression' basis. Not that I don't agree with that, but lets face it, it hasn't 'sold' either ;-) I think it would be far better, as well as just down right more respectful, to not attempt to create and enFORCE a single choice onto all people living in a (human defined) area. Afterall, such a 'single choice' is not required of religions, insurance, stores, communication media etc. etc. within A specific location. So why is government 'different'?!? Unless of course its really not a necessity, but rather an accepted 'tradition' of force parading as protection? - Jain

They're already talking our language, to some degree or other; perhaps we can bring them further along the curve, and actually contribute to some successes. Breaking up a large, overbearing nation-state into smaller nations that are more rights-respecting is progress, after all. And maybe, just maybe, we can get one or two to give a total free-market system a try. What an exhilarating thing that would be! – Imagine a world of legalized secession. Too often minority groups of a given state are made slaves to the tyranny of the majority (power). Imagine how blessed Palestinians would be if they could simply secede from Israel? Imagine how blessed Israel would be, for that matter. What if Kurds could secede from Iraq? Basque from Spain? Lakota from the US? Tibet from China? Boer from South Africa? Chiapas from Mexico?

DOUGLAS, MARCUS: When Allen West commented on Facebook, 8.3.14: The president is in violation of his oath … He should be removed from office by impeachment! - I had commented: John Zube That would still leave us with territorial statism, not with freedom, peace and justice, which must be based on voluntarism, individual sovereignty, individual secessionism, full freedom of association, contract, competition & laissez faire and free markets in every sphere, i.e. with personal law associations of volunteers only, regardless of whether they are any kind of statists, libertarians or anarchists, all without a territorial monopoly. Then we would see some rapid progress towards peace, freedom, justice, enlightenment, prosperity, even towards intelligence expansion, life extension and the stars. Until then we remain e.g. under the nuclear war threat and all the other wrongs, irrationalities and burdens of territorial powers doing their own things at our risk and expense. - Marcus Douglas liked that on 9.3.14. - John Zube I wish you would rather accentuate the positive alternatives to any territorial government, under any kind of president and parliamentary system and election system. These are all more or less merely distopias, all too often even tyrannies and Warfare States and under the pretence of a War against Poverty they manage to increase it, just like their War against Drugs turned drugs into a much greater problem and into a profitable business for organised crime. - Marcus Douglas - liked that.

ENGEL, C. JAY: Editor and creator of The Reformed Libertarian. Living in Northern California with his wife, where he writes on everything from politics to theology and from culture to economic theory. You can send an email to reformedlibertarian@gmail.com - Individual Secession and Lysander Spooner on Taxation - Posted by: C.Jay Engel August 21, 2014 in Blogs, C.Jay Engel - - One of the hilarious contradictions of the mainstream conservative (I consider myself very conservative by the way –and I’m also a consistent libertarian) is that he wants to make sure that everyone knows how much he is against individual secession, which is a libertarian concept.  And yet at the same time it is often these folks who are more attracted to American folklore, the independent cowboy, the Western Hero, the Daniel Boonesque frontiersman.  It is my understanding, though, that what makes these things so appealing is that they all exist in the absence of the State.  Can you imagine a frontiersman’s reaction to some government schmo following him around the wild country (if you can convince a bureaucrat or politician to leave his air conditioned office) trying to “protect him?”  No, what makes these Tall Tales and exaggerated American stories so interesting and exciting is that these are manly men who can take care of themselves!  They took their families across the wilderness in covered wagons, armed with rifles and the like. - This is a excellent example of individual secession.  Today’s neoconservatives shriek in horror when one suggests State-level secession from the Federal government and about have a heart attack when they hear “county secession.”  But why do they pretend to have a cowboy appeal? Perhaps they like the movies that carry the theme of the “man’s man” who goes out on his own to explore God’s green earth.  But when it comes down to it, they despise the adventurer, the person who wants to live his own life and explore unknown territories (not that they exist anymore, but you get the point).  In short, they want to make sure everyone is “protected” at all times and conveniently, they require a tax for their “services,” and quote Romans 13 when the individual just wants to be left alone.  What exactly is the individual being protected from if he is prevented, by the strong-arm of the State, from going his own way?  Talk about a Protection Racket. - Lysander Spooner was a mid-nineteenth century natural rights philosopher and lawyer.  Desiring to conduct a free-market competition in the mail delivery services, was was soon shut down by the government, who, naturally, wanted its own monopoly.  He was in many ways one of the most vocal supporters of taking the founders’ philosophy to it’s logical conclusion.  Below he is in all his brilliance on the subject of taxation compared to the action of theft by a robber. – THEN HE QUOTES Lysander Spooner: “The fact is that the government, like a highwayman, says to a man: “Your money, or your life.” And many, if not most, taxes are paid under the compulsion of that threat. - The government does not, indeed, waylay a man in a lonely place, spring upon him from the roadside, and, holding a pistol to his head, proceed to rifle his pockets. But the robbery is none the less a robbery on that account; and it is far more dastardly and shameful. - The highwayman takes solely upon himself the responsibility, danger, and crime of his own act. He does not pretend that he has any rightful claim to your money, or that he intends to use it for your own benefit. He does not pretend to be anything but a robber. He has not acquired impudence enough to profess to be merely a “protector,” and that he takes men’s money against their will, merely to enable him to “protect” those infatuated travellers, who feel perfectly able to protect themselves, or do not appreciate his peculiar system of protection. He is too sensible a man to make such professions as these. Furthermore, having taken your money, he leaves you, as you wish him to do. He does not persist in following you on the road, against your will; assuming to be your rightful “sovereign,” on account of the “protection” he affords you. He does not keep “protecting” you, by commanding you to bow down and serve him; by requiring you to do this, and forbidding you to do that; by robbing you of more money as often as he finds it for his interest or pleasure to do so; and by branding you as a rebel, a traitor, and an enemy to your country, and shooting you down without mercy, if you dispute his authority, or resist his demands. He is too much of a gentleman to be guilty of such impostures, and insults, and villanies as these. In short, he does not, in addition to robbing you, attempt to make you either his dupe or his slave.

FAWKES, JEFFERSON: Commenting on APATRCKPAY: Submitted by JeffersonFawkes on Mon, 03/23/2009 - 16:31. Permalink - That’s a close analysis, but panarchy, actually doesn't separate land. You would have the Obama followers as next door neighbors. You just wouldn't pay taxes to their ruler of choice. A closer description would be freedom of political leader in the same way that we are free to choose our church or cell phone service. Basically it would just mean figure out what you would need a government to do, and get a group of friends together, and start doing it. Those who have a different view than you on what government needs to do can organize and do their own thing.

FEEN, LOUSANDER: Liked my remark on Facebook: John Zube At least by now we should all have come to recognise not only territorial secessionism but also individual and group secessionism, combined with the personal law options, in realisation of free markets, free choice, free competition, freedom of association, contract, experimentation, exchange, full monetary & financial freedom and genuine SELF-governance and SELF-responsibilty and free competition in every sphere, especially all those now monopolised by territorial and statist governments. Collectivist & monopolistic, coercive "self-government" and "sovereignty" are not good enough substitutes for individual sovereignty or self-ownership and freedom of action for all peaceful and tolerant people. - Lousander Feen - 203 mutual friends – 10.7.14. – He also liked today’s statement by myself: GOVERNMENT: Territorial government over involuntary subjects means "ignorance in action". One should also add that it amounts to enforced popular errors, prejudices, false assumptions & conclusions, intolerance for tolerant actions, monopolism, wrongful aggressive & defensive actions, unjustified hierarchies, coercion & compulsion, bureaucracies, unwarranted interventions, always wrongful collectivism, all too often even fanaticism, tyranny and totalitarianism.

Is that so difficult to understand? Should e.g. all housewives "unite", to provide uniform meals for all they do love or should all of them remain free to do the best they can, in this respect, too? Peace, freedom, justice and abundance are the result of letting all people do their own things - and learn from their experience. - Liked by Tokyo Tom & Tony Palmentera - Cyndi Feigenbaum

The seceding territory, the new realm, becomes independent of the jurisdiction it was part of, the old realm. Secession can be either complete or partial. For example, in St. Louis, the residents of a neighborhood are legally able to privatize their street, exercising partial secession from the city government (Foldvary 1994). - For those who advocate the legal ability to secede, the moral right to secession derives from human equality. If each adult human being has the moral right to consent to the government, then one not only has a right to vote, but more fundamentally, the right to emigrate or secede. In this view, global justice requires the right of individual secession. - If emigration is prohibited, then the residents are enslaved by the state, forced to abide by the laws or be penalized. But emigration has a high cost, as those leaving must let go of territory and heritage they cher ... – 2006 - 2014?

GODZILLA GAL: Godzilla Gal : answered 7 years ago - Welcome To Individual Secession! - Welcome to the "Individual Secession" blog! You may be curious as to what "Individual Secession" is - it is the personal choice to secede - that is withdraw - from current society in its current form. The way that society is now is, IMHO, totally against the wishes of the framers of the constitution. The framers wanted a republic form of government composed of "part-time" legislators - not a permanent ruling class! What we have now is a government composed of a ruling class in all three branches who make decisions not on what is good for the people, but they make these decisions on what is going to get them re-elected and/or what is good for the "special interest groups" that contribute to their campaigns! The 2008 presidential campaign is expected to top ONE BILLION DOLLARS for the first time. The 2008 race began in 2006 (even before the mid-term elections) - 18 months before the first primary. - This is just one of the factors that led me to decide that we were going to secede from current society. The traditional fabric of our country is being destroyed by those persons and organizations in order to enrich themselves personally with either money or power (or both). Our rights are being eroded and our sovereignty (both personal and collective) is under concerted attack. The NAFTA "Super Highway", NAIS and the not-so-secret North American Union are but a few examples. - Individual Secession is not just a physical act, it is also a mental exercise in which you begin to see things as they really are. You also begin to take steps to secede physically from the system - as far as you are comfortable to go. Any step, no matter how small is a statement of defiance and a repudiation of the status quo. For some, the steps may only consist of speaking out on the issues while others (like myself) decide to go "off the grid" totally and use only the minimum amount of "goods and services". - There is not much difference between what I am going to do and neo-homesteading, back-to-the-land or voluntary simplicity - it is a matter of why I chose to do it. For some it is because of enviromental concerns, religious beliefs or some form of nostalgia. For me it was mostly a political decision (with a bit of religion mixed in) to return to a life style that does not have to depend on anyone except myself. Society is so interconnected that a single disruption causes extensive problems throughout the rest of society. A hundred years ago, people were more reliant on themselves rather than being reliant on a system that is controlled by large corporations and the ruling classes. I determined that my participation in the system was not only enabling the continued existence of it, but it also made me a "subject" of the system. - In future posts, I will give examples of how the system is designed to be a self-perpetuating entity that exists to enrich itself at the expense of the "common man". I will also be posting on what you can do to deny the system the fruits of your labor and how to make a statement that you are not going to play the game by THEIR rules anymore. - Source(s): http://individualsecession.blogspot.com/ - Published on YAHOO!

März 1999. – This is an absolutely masterful book that deserves a great deal more attention than I fear it will ever receive. It deals with one of the most overlooked issues in political theory, secession. Although most people think that the American Civil War settled the issue for all time, the authors of this book beg to differ. From a variety of different vantage points and ideologies, secession is given the support that it so deserves. Secession is rooted in individual liberty and any opposition ultimately requires an outright act of force. It is this crucial fact that much of this book is based upon. Issues of secession, past, present, and future are all dealt with accordingly. This book should be on the bookshelf of every individual with a serious interest in libertarian political philosophy. - - Von cpcjr@aol.com am 31. Juli 1999: Best discussion on Secession ever. This book is the best discussion on the subject of Secession I have ever seen. This topic is so important and yet so ignored. No one can understand the "Civil War" with out understanding this important topic. The Right of succession is a crucial element of protecting liberty and this book Provides the best possible understanding of it available - Another reader commented, 19.3.99: Radical political decentralization worldwide is inevitable because of technology, demographics and the continual threat of nuclear destruction of large nation states, it is useful to have a scholarly investigation of the issue like Mr. Gordon.

GRINDER, WALTER: TOLERANCE: The most consistent Real Liberals, and certainly current Libertarians, saw clearly that moral consistency demanded toleration not just for thoughts and beliefs – the most intimate function of all human conscience – but also for action in accordance with thought. Tolerance for the latter without equal tolerance for the former was rightly see to be a sham of the highest order.” – Walter E. Grinder, An Introduction to Libertarian Thought, p.4. - PANARCHSIM

HART, DAVID: dhart @ libertyfund.org - Translator of Molinari writings. E.g.: The earliest statement of the anarcho capitalist position - In 1849, Gustave de Molinari argued on economic grounds for “Free Government” and “Free Self Defense”, by which he meant “free” as in “free speech” — the right of any individual or group to see to their own government and their own self defense

HARTZOG, PAUL B.: In his essay entitled, "Panarchy: Governance in the Network Age," Paul B. Hartzog describes the process by which old systems of government are being bypassed and overcome by new systems of networked global "governance." Hartzog points out that "[t]he key distinction between the old system and the new lies in the fact that governance in the old system was achieved through states, whereas in the new system it is not only achieved outside of hierarchies through horizontal networks, but is in fact often achieved in spite of hierarchies." [italics his] (Hartzog, 2007). What Hartzog perceives is the effectiveness of new IPP to affecting social change, which rely not on lobbying the state through a democratic process, but on completely bypassing the state system, forming a disperse self-organizing global network of committed actors, capable of instantly spreading information amongst their members. Such networks are far more flexible, dynamic, and responsive than the state system, and will ultimately make the state system obsolete. These networks will form "meshworks," (integrated networks of networks) as the current state systems begin to crumble under their own weight. With their economies failing, counter economies, similar to those envisioned by Samuel Edward Konkin III, will begin to emerge, utilizing new forms of trade, and bypassing the 1st Tier state economies entirely. Eventually new economic frameworks emerge, they may come to resemble the sort of "Economics 3.0" envisioned by Michelle Holliday. As she puts it, "[w]ith a view of the economy as a living system, economic leaders will likely be less fix-it men-and-women and more gardeners or farmers, actively cultivating the fertile conditions for life's processes to flow naturally."

HILL, BRENT: Brent Hill - Works at March Against Monsanto
Added by Joe Kopsick to PANARCHIST INTERNATIONAL over a year ago. - John Zube : Rather, a free market for all the isms and their establishments, all always only for their volunteers and without a territorial monopoly. Too many anarchists have forgotten that voluntarism is the primary thing. For those people wishing to live under a government or State, without trying to force it upon dissenters, it is the right institution for their stage of development. They are then not ruled against their will by people they dislike. Naturally, they should be free to secede from any such association. - B. H. liked that remark.

HILL, HEATHER: Adam Kokesh for President! - Heather Hill - John Zube: ONLY for his followers. All other candidates or proposed leaders only for their followers.

HOSSAIN, MOHAMMAD BELAI: He liked my Facebook remark: CONSPIRACIES: To each the own system! That is the "system" that I prefer for all. That also means freedom to secede for individuals and whole groups of volunteers from any existing system, which they might believe to be run by conspirators. Under territorial statism it is hard to impossible to quite get away from any system one dislikes. That is the nature of this "beast", still predominant today in all countries. To get information on this already ancient alternative, with only traces remaining today in some countries, look up "personal law" with Google. In all spheres not wrongfully monopolized by territorial governments it does work very well and is already taken for granted. - John Zube to W. E., not published on Facebook because her original comment, asserting the reality and power of conspiracies, had already been deleted. – JZ, 9.8.14. – SYSTEMS – Facebook, 16.12.14. – He also liked my FB remark: SINGLE ISSUE REFORMS: Let people sort themselves out into the personal law societies that they do prefer for themselves. That saves them much in propaganda, publicity, lobbying and promotion costs. It would fully use the power of attractive examples and the deterrent effects of failing false systems, although they were supported by volunteers only. – This way all the various systems, reforms, institutions, methods and ideologies do get their best chance. - JZ, 8.1.15. - REFORMERS, LOBBIES

HUEMER, MICHAEL: Talk reported on Facebook, 3.8.13 by Skye Stewart - "Modern states commonly deploy coercion in a wide array of circumstances in which the resort to force would clearly be wrong for any private agent. What entitles the state to behave in this manner? And why should citizens obey its commands? This book examines theories of political authority, from the social contract theory, to theories of democratic authorization, to fairness- and consequence-based theories. Ultimately, no theory of authority succeeds, and thus no government has the kind of authority often ascribed to governments. - "The author goes on to discuss how voluntary and competitive institutions could provide the central goods for the sake of which the state is often deemed necessary, including law, protection from private criminals, and national security. An orderly and livable society thus does not require acquiescence in the illusion of political authority."http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Huemer
