In this episode, CJ discusses 12 authors who (in his opinion) deserve to be more widely known & read among libertarian/anarchist/etc type people. Most of these authors would not actually identify as "libertarians" or "anarchists," but all have a strong independent streak & have at least some views & attitudes that overlap with libertarianism and/or anarchism. Furthermore, all of them are great writers in their respective genres.
Join CJ as he discusses:
Montesquieu
Alexis de Tocqueville
Jose Ortega y Gasset
John Dos Passos
Jacques Ellul
Jane Jacobs
Gore Vidal
Edward Abbey

For this DHP episode, CJ was delighted to be joined by retired Army officer, military contractor, and irregular warfare expert Bill Buppert. Long-time DHP listeners (& those who've gone through the back catalogue) may recall that Bill was the very first guest CJ ever had on the DHP, all the way back in 2015. A few months ago, Bill launched a podcast of his own, Chasing Ghosts, in which he covers the history, theory & practice of irregular warfare, and the shortcomings of its alleged antidote, counterinsurgency.

CJ took a brief break from slaving away at the next Woodrow Wilson episode to make this Fun-Size DHP episode, talking about a political idea known as 'classical republicanism,' which has been on his mind a lot lately, & which he has always found to be interesting & potentially useful. (Think of this as a 'silver bullet' DHP episode, just minus the silver bullet & with concurrently better audio quality, because CJ no longer commutes daily an hour each way, so he recorded this one at the home studio. But it's like a silver bullet episode in that it's relatively short & is mostly ..read more
