« Le Travail d'Isaïe » d'Albert J. Nock, essai publié en 1936 dans The Atlantic Monthly, nous invite à une réflexion sur le rôle du prophète engagé dans sa vocation la plus sacrée : transmettre à ses frères un message salvateur, provoquer chez eux une prise de conscience de la plus grande importance quand tout menace de s'écrouler. « Isaiah's Job » est un texte original sur le fond et sur la forme. Il n 'avait curieusement jamais été traduit en français. Si tu fais partie du Reste, si tu es un Remnant – tu vas découvrir le sens de ces termes - si tu es lucide et attentif, si dans les spasmes violents qui secouent notre société tu reconnais l'expression d'une de ces métamorphoses qui bouleversent avec une tragique régularité nos civilisations, alors oui Isaiah's Job va te mettre en mouvement. Albert J. Nock (1870-1945) est un intellectuel critique social américain et une figure clé dans le développement du courant libertarien moderne. Ses œuvres les plus célèbres - Memoirs of a Superfluous Man et Our Enemy, the State - ont inspiré des personnages aussi influents que William F. Buckley Jr. et Ron Paul, ou Murray Rothbard et Ayn Rand. Malgré son impact significatif, Nock reste peu connu, et ce texte offre donc pour beaucoup d'entre nous un premier aperçu de ses idées sur la liberté individuelle et la critique de l'État.A l'issue de cette lecture nous retrouverons Yamari, corsaire malouin, ardent défenseur du bon sens paysan, passionné d'histoire épris de liberté pour une discussion passionnante qui nous ouvrira bien des horizons. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIENS : 1) L'essai en anglais sur le Mises Institute Isaiah's Job d'Albert J.

In an age of rampant informalities, shoddy attire, and the kind of milieu that makes People of Walmart a possibility, conservatives stand athwart history yelling STOP! Joining Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis is the impeccably dressed Samuel Goldman to explore how conservatism informs the world of fashion, why legendary figures on the Right from Russell Kirk to Albert J Nock to Willmoore Kendall wore such questionably lavish accessories, the connective tissues between intellectual conservatism and 90s era punk rock, and much more.

Here's one of the better articles you'll encounter this week. Gary M. Galles takes a closer look at so-called "weasel words" that can mislead us. Specifically, he examines the question, do I own what is mine? If doing the right thing is a higher priority than simply getting your way, you'll appreciate what Albert J. Nock had to say on the subject. Richard M. Ebeling shares his analysis of Nock's essay written nearly a century ago.

"La tassazione non è altro che un puro e semplice furto, sebbene sia attuato su una scala così enormemente vasta che persino un criminale conclamato non si sognerebbe di tentare. E' un esproprio forzato delle proprietà dei cittadini, ovvero sia dei sudditi dello Stato" - Murray N. RothbardNato a New York nel 1926,Murray N. Rothbard è stato il fondatore del cosiddetto “anarco- capitalismo”. Per Rothbard, non è possibile affidare la difesa della libertà individuale a uno Stato pur “minimo”: qualsiasi forma di coercizione deve essere rigettata in toto, è inaccettabile, e inoltre non c'è davvero modo di “limitare” il potere politico, come pensavano di poter fare i fautori del costituzionalismo. Rothbard sviluppò le proprie teorie saldando assieme tradizioni diverse: la scuola austriaca dell'economia, che aveva appreso frequentando il seminario di Ludwig von Mises a New York; la cosiddetta “Old Right” statunitense, fortemente influenzata da pensatori quali Albert J. Nock e Frank Chodorov; il giusnaturalismo di matrice lockiana. Attivissimo sino alla morte prematura nel 1995, Rothbard è stato anzitutto economista ma anche filosofo politico, storico del pensiero economico, storico politico, commentatore su giornali e riviste, animatore del Partito Libertario e poi di iniziative culturali le più diverse.Protagonista:Lisa KinspergherOspite:Roberta Modugno, professoressa di Storia delle dottrine politiche all'Università Roma TREConsigli di lettura: “Murray N.

There's an inherent 'direction' that the 'True Prophets of Yah' were given, expressed perhaps a bit colloquially, that boils down to "Tell 'em what I tell you to tell 'em." This week, Mark suggests - as strongly as possible! - that such should apply to all of us who try to "study, to show ourselves approved," as "speak His truth boldly," so as to be "good and faithful servants." But it times like this, where the jackboots of Tyranny are so clearly goose-stepping toward a prophetic, "Mark of the Beast" climax, that it can be discouraging that 'the masses' of people, too often including many of our friends, family, and loved ones, just doesn't have "ears to hear." See if this doesn't help: "Isaiah's Job," with thanks to Albert J. Nock

We continue our look at leading figures from the Old Right with guest Tom Woods, who helped publish the late Murray Rothbard's The Betrayal of the American Right. Rothbard admired the courageous and revisionist voices promoting the Old Republic, and shared their antagonism for war and economic intervention. Tom and Jeff discuss great essays like Albert J. Nock's "Isaiah's Job" and Frank Chodorov's "The Ethic of the Peddler Class;" the latter a rousing defense of the merchant class against both bureaucrats and the country-club conservatism which would emerge under William F. Buckley. The old antiwar and anti-New Deal works of figures like Menken, Hazlitt, Howard Buffett, Chodorov, and Nock deserve far wider consideration, especially as the "New Right" spirals into the worst of Buckleyite foreign policy and know-nothing economics.

When it comes to standing for what matters in your life, are you a disciple, a follower or a cheerleader? Gary North wrote a marvelous essay back in 2004 describing the structure of a movement. If you are one of those brave souls who feels a sense of calling to extricate yourself from the mass psychosis that grips so much of our society, you are likely part of what is referred to as the Remnant. To understand why the Remnant is so essential in troubled times, I highly recommend Albert J. Nock's essay "Isaiah's Job" as something you should read sooner than later. It's fascinating how many people will go along with the dominant narratives we're being force-fed right up until those narratives fall apart like a soup sandwich. James Howard Kunstler has an encouraging take on the latest showdowns and throwdowns. The president is openly encouraging businesses to mandate vaccination for their employees. Another perfect demonstration of how if you can't persuade them--force them. Michael Tracey has an interesting take on how injection resistance is becoming a class thing among the people who sell their labor rather than their souls. One of the most encouraging things that a lover of liberty can see these days is another person's smiling face in a public place. Thomas L. Knapp says it looks like Americans are beginning to ignore the mask mandates and that's a good thing. If you are a dissident in the age of Corona Communism, you should hold your head high. Allan Stevo says the most important lockdown to end is the one within your mind. Eric Peters joins me for our weekly conversation. We talk about the disturbing precedents being set by the various public health mandates as well as insurance and extended warranties. www.thebryanhydeshow.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/loving-liberty/support

The so-called deep state has leftist roots aiming at the centralization and control of political power. This manifests as decision-making authority of financial resources and private property at the expense of personal liberty. All states tend to become deep by the very nature of bureaucracy, which is inherently plagued by the failures of socialism, an inability to conduct economic calculation and direct resources to their highest-valued ends. Therefore all bureaucracies are not only wasteful but also, in the absence of market competition and price signals, blind to the needs of the people they are supposed to serve. Bureaucracies naturally transform into self-serving institutions ripe to advance leftist ideology and advance the deep state. Leftist capture of key social and governmental institutions especially media outlets and education further grows the deep state through social engineering and shaping public discourse. Rather than preserving liberty and encouraging free thinking, leftists, politicians, and senior executive bureaucrats look upon individuals as pawns in their master plan. All of this is inimical to free-thinking, entrepreneurship, and liberty. Leftists and the deep state prefer an ignorant and distracted citizenry that they can tax, mold, and direct at will. Yet government in the Enlightenment tradition is supposed to protect liberty and secure a free space for people to pursue their own happiness. In order to restore the proper role and function of government, all leftist designs must be resisted and the deep state must be undermined. It begins with understanding the principles of justice and must translate into positive action.
