Iedereen is god, als god het wezen is van absolute wilsbeschikking.

De god van het Oude Testament is een boze en wrekende god die geweld niet schuwt. Kapitalisme draait niet rond universele liefde.

De god van het Oude Testament is een boze en wrekende god die geweld niet schuwt. Kapitalisme draait niet rond universele liefde.

Coërcief socialisme zeker niet. In feite kan je "gedwongen" en "liefde" niet echt in dezelfde zin mat elkaar verbinden op een ethische manier.

Liefde is overigens een uiterst laissez-faire kapitalistische (en zeker praxeologische) daad, emotioneel gezien dan.

De mannen van het "Center for the New Europe" zijn ook lid van diene Stockholm Network : Bastiat komt daar ook weer naar voor. (dat zijn allemaal groepen die wel wat "gewicht" in de schaal werpen als het er op aankomt beleid te beïnvloeden of te 'inspireren').

Every enterprise is guided by a view of the world, a philosophy. Our philosophy goes under many banners: "European liberal," "pro-market," "individualist," "progressive" and many others. We call ourselves simply "Liberal."
We find that support for liberal ideas--free trade, social tolerance, economic liberty--extends far beyond Europe's Liberal parties. Therefore, we back no party or programme. We find that liberalism has friends and enemies in every party. We hope to unite its friends and persuade its enemies.

The liberal tradition is one of Europe's unique gifts to the world. The liberal tradition stretches back to eighteenth-century France, to the writings of Benjamin Constant and Frédéric Bastiat. It embraces the ideas of such German thinkers as Wilhelm von Humboldt and Friedrich Schiller. It is enriched by the Austrian school of economics--which produced giants like Carl Menger, Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich August von Hayek--and by the leaders of the "Scottish enlightenment," men like Adam Smith, Adam Ferguson and David Hume.

At its core, liberalism is about the dignity and worth of every individual. It welcomes a society of choices about what to think, what to do, what to buy, what to be. Private property ensures the freedom of the individual in his private sphere. Free enterprise allows him to buy and sell on the terms he thinks best. Free markets and secure property rights allow him to dream and to innovate and to bring into the world new products, services and works of art.
A liberal society does not punish success with confiscatory taxes or reward rivals with grasping regulation or heaping subsidies. Nor does it forget the unfortunate, to whom it offers freedom, hope, the balm of individual compassion and a wealth of choices to try anew.

De CNE is inderdaad een geregistreerd libertarische en bekende, gezaghebbende organisatie.

Hun internships zijn overigens zeer gegeerd en ik ga er zeker eens naar horen nadat mijn twee hoofdstudies en post- zijn afgelopen.

Maar ook de CNE is niet vooruitstrevend in persoonlijke vrijheid. Vrije migratie, legalisering van alle drugs &c zie je nooit echt vertegenwoordigd bij hen.

Hoewel een figuur als Van Dun er dan wel weer bij betrokken is - maar we moeten eerlijk blijven; waar is Van Dun niet bij betrokken 8)
