In 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. "Agorism
was meant to improve the lot of everyone, not a chosen elite or
unwashed underclass. Hence an introductory work that presents ideas
without going through the long intellectual history and conflict of
competing ideas that produced them. "As the creator of agorism, it
is most incumbent on me first to attempt to reduce it to basic
intelligibility." 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 SAMUEL EDWARD KONKIN III "Konkin's
writings are to be welcomed. Because we need a lot more
polycentrism in the movement. Because he shakes up Partyarchs who
tend to fall into unthinking complacency. And especially because he
cares deeply about liberty and can read and write, qualities which
seem to be going out of style in the libertarian movement."
--Murray N. Rothbard, Ph.D.
