New Problems in Nozick's Derivation of the Minimal State.

The article focuses on Robert Nozick's individualist anarchist perspective, which parallels Murray Rothbard's views and explores the state of nature as a baseline for evaluating the need for a state. Topics include Nozick's assumptions about moral behavior in anarchy, his project to justify the emergence of a state from this anarchic situation, and his definition of what constitutes a state in this context.
