Entry: The Relativist Roots of Libertarianism Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/the_relativist_roots_of_libertarianism#25551 Post contents: Mr. Gordon has it right. Mr. Roach does not seem to realize that many libertarians can and do arrive at the non-aggression principle by conceding an objective morality. He merely presumes that what he embraces as the objective morality, is, in fact, the genuine article. That he goes on to conflate anti-statism with eschewing opprobrium and personal judgment, and suggests that the so-called "cosmopolitan" libertarians are a reasonable stand-in for libertarians as a whole, tells me that Mr. Roach would benefit from a more thorough exposure to libertarian philosophy.
