The text argues that individualism is far from dead. Tibor Machan
identifies, develops and defends what he calls classical
individualism - an individualism humanized by classical philosophy,
rooted in Aristotle rather than Hobbes. It does not reject the
social nature of human beings, but finds that every one has a
self-directed agent who is responsible for what he or she does.
Machan rejects all types of collectivism, including
communitarianism, ethnic solidarity, racial unity and gender
identity. The ideas expressed have important social and political
implications, and should be of interest to anyone concerned with
the notion of individuality and individual responsibility, or with
an interest in the following: social and political affairs, social
ethics, political philosophy, economics, rights theory, the nature
of the human being, libertarianism, capitalism, or
environmentalism.
