Max,

Exceptionally good articles “The End Of Politics (1 and 2)”. Particularly the lists, and the insights into the potential changes in culture that increase the chance of general appreciation of liberty. Its optimistic, and I hope you are right. On the other hand, we westerners are unique in the world in our total discount of the family, and we are rapidly outbred by those groups that either do not discount the family, or who have effectively weaponized the family and/or tribe as a competitive evolutionary strategy. And as Emmanuel Todd has argued, our lack of familialism is a competitive weakness in constructing society, even if has been a legal, commercial and political advantage in the past, when we have acted tribally (as christendom). So my expectation, despite my preferences, is that we will either see the re-nationalization of liberalism, or a constant reduction in trust that takes us ever more toward familialism and ever farther from anarchism. As such, I question instead, what institutions foster liberty under familial and tribal conditions. If liberty is at all possible, and competitively desirable under familialism and tribalism.

Thanks again for writing something worthy of reading in the liberty movement.
