Reviews
"Matt Zwolinski and John Tomasi [are] both committed libertarians who are appalled at the movement's turn toward a harder-edged conservatism. . . . As they see it, libertarianism once had a left-of-center valence--and could still reclaim it" ---Benjamin Wallace-Wells, New Yorker, " The Individualists is a superb work of intellectual history. Anyone wishing to understand a modern political denomination encompassing such diverse creatures as the anarchist Albert Jay Nock, the priestess of capitalism Ayn Rand, the politician Rand Paul and the billionaire philanthropist Charles Koch ought to have a copy on his shelf." ---Barton Swaim, Wall Street Journal, "Some books become good friends. They not only stimulate our minds, but they also speak to our very souls. The Individualists . . . i s such a book. . . excellent, wisely written, and beautifully crafted."" ---Bradley J. Birzer, Law & Liberty, "Some books become good friends. They not only stimulate our minds, but they also speak to our very souls. The Individualists: Radicals, Reactionaries, and the Struggle for the Soul of Libertarianism , by Matt Zwolinski and John Tomasi, is such a book. The two authors do everything humanly possible to uncover and reveal the deepest roots of modern and post-modern libertarianism, tracing its very diverse and tenuous strands back to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, noting that, ultimately, it's a radical form of classical liberalism. At one level, it's a biography of the very idea of libertarianism, but at another level, it's an intellectual autobiography of anyone who considers him- or herself libertarian." ---Bradley J. Birzer, Law & Liberty, "This represents the key division running through the delightful new book The Individualists , a fabulous intellectual history from Matt Zwolinksi and John Tomasi, two sympathetic biographers of the ideology who nonetheless acknowledge that their co-ideologists can be a bit impractical, even zany. . . . The Individualists is a clarifying work that both explains and demonstrates how libertarianism operates as a coherent philosophy and how it differs from other members of its philosophical family. Its authors write with a palpable love of ideas and even of the sometimes-goofy, often-curmudgeonly characters who propagated them--and who find the idea of a driver's license a license to totalitarianism." ---Tal Fortgang, Commentary, "If there is one lesson to take away from The Individualists , it's that the meaning of libertarianism has always been contested and in flux, a movement more capacious than it is often given credit for. . . . [It] doesn't shy away from the ugly parts of libertarianism, but it highlights much more that libertarians can take pride in." ---Jacob Grier, Washington Examiner, "[Zwolinski and Tomasi] are both committed libertarians who are appalled at the movement's turn toward a harder-edged conservatism. . . . As they see it, libertarianism once had a left-of-center valence--and could still reclaim it." ---Benjamin Wallace-Wells, The New Yorker, "Zwolinski and Tomasi's historical survey of the libertarian movement, warts and all, is uncommonly honest and comprehensive. Purely as exegesis, the book is without peer, and anyone who wants to know what libertarianism is should run, not walk, to pick it up." ---Matt McManus, Jacobin, "A much-needed intellectual history of the movement, at a moment when libertarianism could use some rethinking. . . . You really must read it for yourself." ---Randy E. Barnett, Claremont Review of Books, "'The Individualists' is a superb work of intellectual history. Anyone wishing to understand a modern political denomination encompassing such diverse creatures as the anarchist Albert Jay Nock, the priestess of capitalism Ayn Rand, the politician Rand Paul and the billionaire philanthropist Charles Koch ought to have a copy on his shelf." ---Barton Swaim, Wall Street Journal

Synopsis
A sweeping history of libertarian thought, from radical anarchists to conservative defenders of the status quo. Libertarianism emerged in the mid-nineteenth century with an unwavering commitment to progressive causes, from women's rights and the fight against slavery to anti-colonialism and Irish emancipation. Today, this movement founded on the principle of individual liberty finds itself divided by both progressive and reactionary elements vying to claim it as their own. The Individualists is the untold story of a political doctrine continually reshaped by fierce internal tensions, bold and eccentric personalities, and shifting political circumstances. Matt Zwolinski and John Tomasi trace the history of libertarianism from its origins as a radical progressive ideology in the 1850s to its crisis of identity today. They examine the doctrine's evolution through six defining themes: private property, scepticism of authority, free markets, individualism, spontaneous order, and individual liberty. They show how the movement took a turn toward conservativism during the Cold War, when the dangers of communism at home and abroad came to dominate libertarian thinking. Zwolinski and Tomasi reveal a history that is wider, more diverse, and more contentious than many of us realise. A groundbreaking work of scholarship, The Individualists uncovers the neglected roots of a movement that has championed the poor and marginalised since its founding, but whose talk of equal liberty has often been bent to serve the interests of the rich and powerful., A sweeping history of libertarian thought, from radical anarchists to conservative defenders of the status quo Libertarianism emerged in the mid-nineteenth century with an unwavering commitment to progressive causes, from women's rights and the fight against slavery to anti-colonialism and Irish emancipation.
