Nexus X HumectressPeter Marshall’s excellent book on historic anarchism. Lively and authoritative, this study of a widely misunderstood subject skillfully navigates the rough waters of anarchistic concepts—from Taoism to Situationism, ranters to punk rockers, individualists to communists, and anarcho-syndicalists to anarcha-feminists. Exploring key anarchist ideas of society and the state, […]
An excellent critique of atheist fundamentalism. By Robert M. Price “My disagreement with religion and religious people is, I hope, a gentleman’s disagreement.

For the new year, I have a dream…. A.D. 2014, and it seems obvious that the highfaluting notion of “progress” remains almost purely a technological phenomenon. Whilst the denizens of Slave Britannia cow under the yoke of political correctness and media censorship, those further south of the sphere […]

Observation Deck Over on io9, we posted a map of all the weirdest sex laws in the U.S.A. We didn’t have room for every weird sex law we found, and some of them we had to shorten a bit to make them fit. So here’s the complete, unedited […]
By Laurence Vance I admire much of the work of the Acton Institute. I recently very favorably reviewed Robert Sirico’s new book (he is the organization’s president). However, I deplore the people there that are Christian warmongers. The Acton Institute is advertising a new event to be held […]
By Laurence Vance It happens every time I even mention religion in an article or blog post. Some libertarian atheists get so upset. Today I was referred to the work of the atheist George Smith, something I was already familiar with. For an introduction to Smith, here is […]
By Walter Block 1. Check this out on the feminists, at least those in India responsible for this horrid video. There has been a spate of horrendous rapes in this country. Do the feminists there come out against rape? Well, of course, some of them do, quite properly, […]
The Daily Mail The U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that debtors’ prisons are unconstitutional – but that has done little to stop some judges from jailing people because they cannot pay their court fines.

By David McElroy It finally occurred to me over the weekend why I hate the responses of people on both sides of the Phil Robertson controversy. I would object to pretty much any reaction to what Robertson said — because paying attention to him at all is treating […]

The Atlantic Molly Ball Dec 23 2013, 8:00 AM ET Mike Theiler/Reuters Things are not going well for Democrats. Riding high just weeks ago after Republicans shut down the government, the party now finds itself in a swoon: President Obama’s ratings have hit an all-time low. The implementation […]
By Patrick J. Buchanan “Across Europe, globalism and transnationalism, as represented by the eurozone and EU, seem in retreat, as nationalism is resurgent. Now it is the UKIP, a new British independence party, which seeks to secede from the EU that is surging—at the expense of the Tories. […]

By Roderick Long When invisible-hand or spontaneous-order mechanisms are invoked in libertarian social theory, it is customarily as a benign alternative to state power. Yet there are reasons for thinking that state power itself likewise depends for its maintenance on spontaneous-order mechanisms.

For some time now, I’ve thought TAC is the most left-wing print publication out there.
