Book Review: : Libertarians and Liberalism: Essays in Honour of Gerard Radnitzky edited by Hardy Bouillon, by George C. Leef, The Freeman: Ideas on Liberty, Jul 1997
"Antony Flew’s Social Democracy and the Myth of Social Justice ... improves upon Hayek’s criticism, taking pains to argue that social justice as customarily conceived is precisely not a kind of justice. He leaves in tatters the theories of Rawls and other contemporary advocates of the idea that state-sanctioned coercion can make for a more just world." |
