In this Independent Conversations virtual event, acclaimed political theorist Aeon J. Skoble discusses his new book, Deleting the State, in conversation with Independent Institute President Graham Walker. Drawing on philosophy, economics, game theory, and legal history, Skoble challenges the moral legitimacy and necessity of the state as we understand it today, arguing that social cooperation does not require coercive political authority—and that the power of the state exists only because we grant it.
Together, Skoble and Walker will explore whether political authority is truly a necessary evil, how cooperation can emerge without centralized control, and what philosophical anarchism can teach us about building a freer society.
Mark your calendars and join this thought-provoking online discussion about political authority, freedom, and the foundations of social order!
Plus, get your questions answered in a live Q&A.
