The contributors do not offer a party line. They argue with each other as much as with the modern managerial state. What unites them is a shared belief that private property, free exchange and voluntary association are the only secure foundations of a civilised order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross historical case-studies, theoretical essays and hard-headed policy talks, the book explores how genuine liberty can survive under systems that are democratic in name yet bureaucratic and coercive in practice. The result is a snapshot of dissident liberal thought at a time of war scares, inflation, surveillance and cultural fragmentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside this volume, you will find: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eClear, non-technical defences of private property and contract in an age of central banking and regulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnalyses of war, sanctions and great-power rivalry from an anti-imperial yet pro-Western perspective.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eEssays on culture, education, religion and the family, and their role in sustaining or undermining a free society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiscussions of secession, decentralisation and parallel institutions as realistic strategies of resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistorical reflections on earlier empires and revolutions - and what they can teach us about today's crises.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you are a long-standing reader of Hoppe, Rothbard and Kinsella, or are simply looking for serious arguments against the expanding power of the modern state, \u003ci\u003eFreedom Under the Sun\u003c\/i\u003e offers a rare thing: honest, unfiltered debate among people who still take ideas seriously.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRead these proceedings as a record of one conference on the Turkish coast - and as a reminder that, even now, there are places where difficult questions about power and freedom can still be asked in the open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sean Gabb,Sebastian Wang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798276449364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 92\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.22d","brand":"Sean Gabb","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443065565439,"sku":"9798276449364","price":11.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_70defd09-0df2-4c25-8943-a7fe3a4c533a.jpg?v=1777201617","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/freedom-under-the-sun-sean-gabb-9798276449364","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
