Disputes with bloggers "liberal" against anarcho-capitalism as maximalist thinking and 100%

After the debate that has been organized in my blog Liberalism with the publication of certain paragraphs of the article by Eduardo "Thought 100%, which made some reference to the maximalist thinking, scholastic, dogmatic and dangerously" liberal "linked to the Instituto Juan de Mariana, I remembered preterit disagreements were already embodied in the form of intense debate in the comments of other entries. Specifically, I have returned to head the defense have some of the Amish community as pristinely liberal (I will skip comments in the same sense that once were made on the opus dei ) and my rejection of this thesis, which led to the confrontation with the anarchic maximalist positions that are articulated on two axes: the inviolability of negative liberty in the sense of I. Berlin and the principle of nonaggression. I tried to respond to both, I consider that quite rightly. The debate can continue here. Some paragraphs highlights:



"An Amish community in a Pacific island does not provide that opportunity" to choose among several options, and would be a primitive organization based on coercive forms of state dsitintas linked to an overwhelming religious rigor. The Amish society is not liberal per se but to the extent that is registered in a country like the U.S. that provide a wealth of opportunities for those who want to leave the community. And indeed, coercion more widespread throughout the world is precisely the non-state.
For all that is completed in compliance with the Amish countryside pseudobucolismo is because there are violent and respect the lives of others. We do not know is whether it would behave the same way if they were not enrolled again in a country that guarantees the security of their property and defend their way of life. Would have to see how "voluntary" membership would be if that community had on that Pacific island three or four enemy communities fighting over scarce resources (for example, that land so highly productive). Then you'd have a check and right primitive tribe, with membership by blood, their particular religion, its uses and abuses based on custom and violence inherent to the communities that struggle for scarce resources. Then the Anarcho
may already clapping with joy. No more oppressive state and replaced magical explanations for the world (Adam and Eve, creation, etc.) group membership based on kinship, private law based on custom (ay! poor women) and private armies formed by the members themselves community. And all without coercion (of course). (...)

The Amish are a few free riders who take advantage of all the benefits of a state in the defense of private property and foreign aggression. (...) I would like to see the same community pacisfismo Amish if not protected by the coercive laws of a state. In fact, within the ethnographic bellonging is impossible to find anywhere peaceful comundiades the remote world might be. Only the head of our anti-Western utopian header. Moreover, the contempt shown to do for concepts rooted in our culture as the truth will progressively assimilates more malware postmodernism. In fact, raising a child without any autonomous choice in categorically false ideas as to effectively defined these fundamentalists are wrong. The religious rigor applied to minors is wrong. And no, it is equal to educate children about ideas than others. And the fact that the state can not provide the best guidelines for education based on scientific truth does not mean that we can discern that some degree of error and other is diametrically different. In the same way that the GAL and Stalin killed people and never occur to us to put them on equal footing. (...)

Hallelujah brothers! We have found the Noble Savage and is white!

(...) I understand that for someone who looks respectable father starve to leave their children without letting anyone know and be able to help them, but it seems a terrible injury to their freedom to explain to their children why creationism is bunk or that surgical techniques do not conflict with the "god" who appeared to him goatherds people centuries ago, seems an aberration freedom-all we say. But hey, be dealt with socialists, deconstructionists, post-structuralist and the whole brood of utopian and emerged victorious. You are not the first nor the last to fantasize about a man's concept totally alien to what it is. Little or no gift to claim the need for a "new man."
I do not understand the obsession called "liberalism" to that aberration that you defend with such passion. Cuendo especially that of liberalism is a concept rooted and closely linked to a certain tradition of thought that little or nothing to do with what you defend.

(...) I've said before: liberalism is a current that gives a great importance freedom but not exclusive. Negative concept of freedom as seen with better eyes to a person who only has an opportunity to share and who chooses "voluntarily" aquellla that has a lot of them to choose but which somehow weighs some form of coercion. That is not liberalism, is stupidity. Thus a man accidentally locked inside a cold dark room and 2x2 is freer than a poor citizen of the very socialist U.S. because you accidentally locked (without mediation of any human being in the accident) has absolute freedom to act without coercion anyone while the citizens pay taxes and abusive indoctrination in schools.

(...)

And yes, I hate you to defend the Amish. Not because I do not catching some sympathy, they do, but because you do under some ideas that equally respected Moslem communities of mass indoctrination, religious subjugation and extreme verbal and non-violence would you feel moved to do something "coercive" to change them . Entraríais or their properties or intentaríais empower their women children, or children without procuraríais that would stop suicide critical capacity on behalf of a fake. In any case, privately, inetnatríais minimize damage from these people about your property whenever they had a right to leave yours. And that bothers me, just So I bother you to defend child prostitution, child trafficking or private law varies according to your condition.
The Amish, the noble savage Rousseau who curiously has only been within a coercive state and all the advantages it provides are in any case, something to tolerate in the margin, not the example of anything even remotely desirable. Are the extreme case of what they can tolerate pluralistic and open societies based on certain universal principles that have only been delivered with the coercive state umbrella. (...)

have defined liberalism as a certain theory rooted in time defending some abstract aspects that any definition of a handbook of political science to use can be determined with enough accuracy. Which includes, generally, from the liberal left minarchism Mill until the end of Nozick. It does not seem anything crazy. What is the final fireworks is that you're just-Albert Esplugas-which I am accused of usurping terms to me when you here have defined liberalism as you wish, citing an anarchist from those of the troop of Alabama: (...) liberalism in the words of Walter Block: "only raises a question and gives a unique answer. Question, 'this act is necessarily a violent invasion? " If so, it is justified to use force (legal) to prevent or punish the act, if not, is irrelevant. " So if someone borrows the terms you are just you. It should be noted that from what was proposed in a famous book you propose Block is child prostitution and child trafficking.

(...) I am not against natural law ethics, defended by prominent liberals, but the restricted use to you doing fundamentalist contrantropológico it, I do not oppose the existence of innate concepts in mind, but the nineteenth-century methodological closure propugnais totally detached from the empirical, I am not opposed to the preponderance of the concept of negative liberty, but to use it as the only beacon of liberalism coming to say a man accidentally locked in a room without food diaphanous is freer than a U.S. citizen, I oppose the idea that power is a real danger of which we shield to protect our freedom, but never will hear me say, like you, that in Communist China today to enjoy the opportunity to exercise freedom in a way that is prohibited in the USA, I understand that liberal democracies owe more to what they have of liberals that they have for democracy, but will not hear me or my or any liberal say that is an absolute monarchy deseable que la democracia (como hace uno de vuestros popes), creo como tantos liberales que las familias deben de tener mayores ámbitos de decisión en lo que a la educación de sus hijos respecta, pero no me parece defendible ni que los prostituyan, ni que los engañen con cuentos del antiguo testamento para garantizarles muertes dolorosas muy pías, igual que entiendo, como tantos liberales, que el estado nos conmina a hacer muchas cosas arbitrariamente, pero no diré que el deber de socorro a un menor que está siendo deliberadamente maltratado por sus padres es un invento socialista. También entiendo, como muchos liberales, que el estado manipula a través de la educación a nuestros hijos, lo que llego a discernir es que manipulation that can have their parents on them can be as or more pernicious than the state (just see the children-and daughters-of radical Muslims.) I understand that some NGOs could help speed the adoption process that the state monopoly, which would never occur to me is advocating freedom of movement in a market of children who do not comply with coercive legislation, clear and very controlling. I understand that the public police is a constant threat but constrained to prefer legislation to replace mafia cartels that are not such in the worlds of our games anarchists. And so it goes ".

The politics of faith and politics of skepticism

not long ago Eduardo wrote a brilliant article with which I feel fully identified. One immensely enjoy reading the clarity with which exposes many ideas that flit through my head and which could give a reason why the title of this blog. Oakeshott in his day spoke of the politics of faith and politics of skepticism. Eduardo succeeds in fully to characterize:

"Although Francis Bacon was laughing at those who denied the" obvious truth "that the sun and stars revolved around the earth, but we could not consider a dogmatist in the strong sense, since we have entitled to assume that the British philosopher would have rectified his absolutism, with respect to the "evidence" geocentric, if he had presented sufficient evidence favorable to heliocentrism. Instead, dogmatic theology itself may be considered a clear case of strong dogmatism. None " evidence "or reasoning will deter the dogmatic theologian ever that God is a unity of three persons, Father, Son and Spirit holy, and that the child is consubstantial with the father, as hard as any critical deter the dogmatic Marxist Diamat that the second law of thermodynamics is not a standard "bourgeois", or that the laws of history not lead inexorably to a socialist society. (...)

skeptical attitude, which is the best provision against absolutism and "oracular philosophy" (to put it in the manner of Popper), is not identical to moral nihilism or strong epistemological skepticism , which denies any kind of truth to the scientific program. By contrast, healthy skepticism is only the logical subject that any educated person should keep as much about the extraordinary claims as dogmatic thinking, not critical.

The political translation of this attitude seems to some version of pragmatism, if not confused with postmodern version (Anything goes!). Political pragmatism is a 100% critical thought suspect because of the excesses of theoretism or the "politics of the book, Oakeshott mode. Pragmatic political stance is not driven by the pursuit of the summum bonum, but by prudent flight summum malum. Beware of human perfectibility, and instead says imperfectability of human beings without this implying a complete rejection of social or political progress. (...)

In short, a pragmatic spirit to achieve both dreams no perfect democracy or some other kind of political regime eternal patterns back, but try before anything else prevent despotism, tyranny and criminal disorder. Karl Popper proposed, in this sense, maintaining a "piecemeal social engineering" as opposed to another "utopian social engineering." Nothing in this pragmatism is incompatible with liberalism, at least in the sense that he gave at the time Jean Francois Revel:

"When I say that liberalism has never been one to say that ideology is not a theory based on concepts prior to any experience, not a dogma or independent invariable course of things or the outcome of the action. "

Updated: I posted an almost identical version of this article in my blog liberalismo.org -contains some reference to maximalist liberal movement linked to the Instituto Juan de Mariana, and has sparked debate. Van over 40 comments. Plus, here.

The tower of babel

The search perfectly straight line is an activity at once impious and inevitable part of human life. implies the punishment of the wicked (the wrath of the gods, and social isolation), and his reward is not the achievement but I made the attempt. Therefore, it is an appropriate activity for individuals, but not to companies. For an individual who is compelled to do it, the reward can exceed the punishment and defeat inevitable. The penitent can hope or even expect, that will fall as a hero wounded in the arms of a caring and forgiving society. And even the unrepentant can reconcile himself with the powerful need of its momentum, though, as Pormeteo must suffer. But for a society, punishment is a chaos of conflicting ideals, the disturbance of a common life, and the reward is the popularity that corresponds to a monumental folly. A mesure que l'humanité will degrade perfectionne l'homme. Or, to interpret the myth more lightly: human life is a gamble, but while the individual should be allowed to bet according to its inclination (the favorite or the other), society should always support the bench.

Modern Art

During all these years and I am sure that in the company of countless soul mates, I have visited galleries on Madison Street, in Soho, (...) and I've been in all kinds of museums: the Modern, the Whitney, the Guggenheim, (...); in order, from the humblest tasks of modernism to his temples catedraclicios (.. .). During All these years I have stopped, like many others, against a thousand, two thousand, God knows how many pictures of Pollock, Newman, de Kooning, Noland, Rothko, (...), squinting sometimes, others with eyes open as plates, approaching, moving away, waiting, waiting, always esperendo that ... something ... something that suddenly appears, in short, the visual reward for much effort, the prize has to wait there, that every one know it is ... (...) In short, all these years I believed that in art, more than anything else, seeing is believing. Well, how much myopia ! Now, finally, the April 28, 1974, I could see. Suddenly I regained my vision. No "seeing is believing", silly me: "believing is seeing" because Modern Art has become completely literary: the paintings and other works exist only to illustrate the text .

Climate Change: An Inconvenient Truth


Xavier Sala-i-Martin

Leo with astonishment that the government has just hired Michael Moore as a consultant on issues of terrorism and is committed to reach all English schools his film Fahrenheit 9 / 11.

Or was Al Gore DC subjects (or climate change)? Well, Moore, Gore, for that matter: both are dedicated to making propaganda film with a disturbing disregard for the truth. In the case of former vice president, a lucrative cross-political climate has led him to star in An Inconvenient Truth, a film well done, dramatic and sometimes frightening, but with a little drawback: it is full of lies uncomfortable.

Let's start with the assertion that 100% of scientists agree with its tenets. It is true that there almost unanimous agreement that the earth has warmed (less than a degree, yes) during the last century. Unfortunately for the credibility of Gore, unanimity ends here. And if not, compare the claims of the film, with some reporting a mad scientist on the payroll of Exxon, but to document that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of the UN made public last week, will probably document biased in favor of environmental position but, even so, shows that the film is full of exaggerations.

Gore shows pictures of an ice-free Arctic Ocean and a thawing Greenland and Antarctica thing that he says will cause a sea level rise of 7 meters. It is true that the mass of Arctic ice has declined over the last century (a process which, incidentally, began in the early nineteenth century, long before industrial CO2 emissions.) But in regard to Antarctica, the IPCC says that temperatures there have not only risen but they have fallen (page 9) and is expected to increase ice mass over the next century (page 13). The film shows images of a small Antarctic ice which has fallen into the sea, but that area is the exception on a continent that is cooling.

Lo 7 meters is also a hype: Arctic thaw will have less impact on sea level because the ice is already floating in the water. And, says the IPCC, the Antarctic will melt quite the contrary, rising sea levels are not very large. The IPCC forecasts confirm that logic and predict that the level will rise 7 not saying Gore but between 0.18 and 0.59 meters (IPCC page 11). The terrifying images of New York slowly inundated and the Netherlands, Bangladesh Shanghai or disappearing and causing hundreds of millions of forcibly displaced are therefore, according to the IPCC itself, a fantasy film designed to cause panic and fear.

Gore suggests that Greenland melting will stop the Atlantic current that brings warm water from the South Seas and cause a new ice age in Europe. IPCC scientists are 90% sure that will not happen (page 12).

After showing pictures of the heatwave experienced by Europe in 2003, Gore says global warming will cause millions of deaths. The IPCC says (p. 9) that the local climate fluctuations such as those experienced by Europe in 2003 may not be related to increased CO2. Moreover, to be intellectually honest, the amount of people who die because of heat, Gore people should subtract which will no longer die of disease related to the cold (hypothermia, flu, respiratory and cardiovascular diseases related to low temperatures). The film does not explain that during that disastrous 2003 that killed 34,000 Europeans in the heat wave, 100,000 Europeans died too cold.

Venturing into the realm of comic genre, Gore says that bird flu, tuberculosis, SARS and even the war in Darfur are caused by global warming. Obviously, none of those silly assertions appears in the IPCC. Also shows a graph in which the costs of insurance companies to deal with hurricanes have skyrocketed. The IPCC does not mention it because everyone knows that insurance payments increase when the price of houses and when there are more people living in the sea in the hurricane belt.

Finally, the ultimate lie is the image of New Orleans devastated by Katrina and a Gore explaining that the fault is the increased intensity and frequency of tropical cyclones because of global warming. The IPCC (page 6) says that, although there is some observational evidence that the intensity may have risen since 1970 in the Atlantic, the data do not give long-term trends in either the intensity or frequency of hurricanes . Moreover, by taking land Katrina was a force of less than 3-4 on a scale of 5. The reason why it was not his unusual devastating power, but the fact that burst some levees damaged by time. The irony is that years ago scientists were warning the government that any hurricane to pass over the old dam could break and cause a catastrophe. I say it is an irony because, guess who was the vice president of government that chose to ignore that advice and not to repair the levees? The answer, Mr. Gore, it is an inconvenient truth.



This is the first in a series of five articles on climate change the Columbia economics professor Xavier Sala-i-Martin published in La Vanguardia. The second - consensus - and third - Just around the corner - are already available on their web . Like the first, have no waste and strongly invite you to read. In the fourth attempt on the controversial (and apparently missed ($) ) British government's Stern report. Close with a fifth paper on possible solutions. In a topic that unleashes so many passions (our activists walked a bit in the doldrums since the workers left their class consciousness on a cruise low cost) is never more than an opinion countercurrent calm and informed.

Next congress of the Michael Oakeshott Association

As you may have noticed I am completely immersed in my exams. I've done a couple but I still have a few, so wish me luck ...

However, I can not indicaros already been scheduled for the next meeting of the Michael Oakeshott Association (so that you are thinking of taking notes and making the relevant reservations.)

will take place between 14 and December 16, 2007, in Friedrich Schiller University of Jena (Germany), and the title will "Oakeshott on Ethics and Reason." Sounds very interesting.

So tell me from the partnership will be very worthwhile to attend. We just need to confirm the speakers, but given the level of previous meetings not surprise me to be a success.
