In the new paperback edition of AN AGORIST PRIMER, Samuel Edward
Konkin III -- the creator and premier activist and theoretician of
Agorism -- introduces the most powerful means to free yourself,
protect and increase your wealth, and liberate the whole of human
society in the process Agorism is applied Counter-Economics -- the
philosophy of engaging in free-market activities in defiance of
government control. An evolution of libertarianism, Agorism
embraces all non-coercive human action and opposes all force- or
fraud-based attempts to stifle innovation, trade, thought, and
wealth. If you have ever suspected that government, academia, and
other entities are trying to pull the wool over your eyes in order
to control your money, your morality, and your life, you'll find
answers and remedies in AN AGORIST PRIMER. In one concise volume,
Samuel Edward Konkin III explains the theory, principles, and --
most important of all -- the practice of Agorism. If you think that
consistency between means and ends matters, this is the book for
you From the preface: "Agorism is a way of thinking about the world
around you, a method of understanding why things work the way they
do, how they do, and how they can be dealt with -- how you can deal
with them." Samuel Edward Konkin III is the author of the seminal
work on libertarianism and Agorism: New Libertarian Manifesto. Over
the course of thirty years, he wrote, edited, and published
newsletters and magazines such as Laissez Faire, New Libertarian
Notes, and 101 issues of the longest-running publication of its
kind, New Libertarian Weekly. Known to his friends as SEK3, Mr.
Konkin graduated cum laude from the University of Alberta, serving
as head of the Young Social Credit League there. He received his
Masters in Theoretical Chemistry at New York University, but left
NYU without submitting his Ph.D. dissertation in Quantum Mechanics
to pursue his lifelong efforts to promote Counter-Economics and
Agorism. He founded the New Libertarian Alliance, the Movement of
the Libertarian Left, and the outreach organization The Agorist
Institute. His body of work is available from KoPubCo. PRAISE FOR
AN AGORIST PRIMER: "A lot of us have waited two decades for the
release of this slender tome... Clocking in at just over 100 pages,
An Agorist Primer offers not only a simple-but-thorough explanation
of what agorism is, it also builds a rock-solid case for it... But
trust me, Konkin's well-structured argument for a free society of
the open marketplace ("as near to untainted by theft, assault, and
fraud as can be humanly attained") is compelling. And he shows
convincingly that such a society is absolutely achievable and
sustainable. Sam's book truly is a primer; he strips down
heavy-duty economic theory and libertarian philosophy without
diminishing either of them. An Agorist Primer may be a quick walk
through the basics, but it never shortchanges the reader. And best
of all, it's awfully entertaining." --Wally Conger, Out of Step
