PODCAST: I Didn’t Sign No Social Contract – A conversation with author Andrew Kern about the legitimacy of the state

Posted Cody


Andrew Kern is the author of the book The Myth of the Social Contract: Refuting Common Arguments for Government Authority. We talked about why the idea that we all agree to be ruled by government doesn’t hold up, whether a voluntary society could really work, and how his anarchist views intersect with his Christian faith.
