Last year, Praxis Peace Institute responded to the libertarian conspiracy film Thrive with a pamphlet titled "Uncivil Liberties: Deconstructing Libertarianism," carefully and concisely laying out the problems inherent in libertarian philosophy and why it is so appealing to today's society. Now, in a book by the same name, six contributors from Praxis have expounded on their arguments to create a compelling case against the radical tenants of libertarianism, demonstrating the untruths promoted within libertarian culture and how concerned citizens can avoid and refute common myths spread by extreme right-wing ideologies. This book is a must-read for anyone invested in modern politics and the future of the United States.
