Natural Elites, Intellectuals, and the State

This monograph addresses the ongoing debate about the origin of the state, using a Rothbardian perspective to explore the influence of elites and their monopolistic tendencies in society. The author, Hoppe, proposes a strategy for non-state-connected natural elites to counteract the dominance of state-connected elites. Offering a meaningful contribution to the literature, it presents a hopeful roadmap for future societal structures.
