To dissolve, submerge, and cause to disappear the political or governmental system in the economic system by reducing, simplifying, decentralizing and suppressing, one after another, all the wheels of this great machine, which is called the Government or the State. --Proudhon, General Idea of the Revolution

I am just reading it now - a magnificent overview of cooperation and mutualism!

The "patronizing narrative" about Plymouth is a talking point that turns up in libertarian writing a lot, in very similar forms; I decided to find as many versions as I could and there are even more than I'd seen (disclaimer: I like a lot of these authors, so it's not a knock (or Nock?) on them): Tom Bethell, Jerry Bower, Jim Cox, Thomas DiLorenzo, Richard Ebeling, Gary Galles, Anthony Gregory, Sharon Harris, Henry Hazlitt, Jacob Hornberger, Richard J. Maybury, Benjamin Powell, Sartell Prentice, Jr., Leonard Read, Sheldon Richman, Murray Rothbard, Byron Schlomach, John Stossel, Alex Tabarrok, Kim Weissman.
