Description

Incisive and engaging, The Free Market Existentialist proposes a new philosophy that is a synthesis of existentialism, amoralism, and libertarianism.

  • Argues that Sartre’s existentialism fits better with capitalism than with Marxism
  • Serves as a rallying cry for a new alternative, a minimal state funded by an equal tax
  • Confronts the “final delusion” of metaphysical morality, and proposes that we have nothing to fear from an amoral world
  • Begins an essential conversation for the 21st century for students, scholars, and armchair philosophers alike with clear, accessible discussions of a range of topics across philosophy including atheism, evolutionary theory, and ethics
