Abstract

The commentary on the Czech translation of selected works of M. N. Rothbard analyses Rothbard's conception of an individual, society, utility, state, taxes as well as economics in order to investigate, whether the author cannot arrive at fallacies within framework of his programme (the destruction of the state and government). But in fact, no state can protect individuals. Governments can only protect a certain level of relations between individuals on a specific territory, can and must be able to make choice between a protection of the individuals and a protection of the territory. Thanks to this choice, an efficiency of governmental activities can be higher than activity of private police and courts. Taxes are an additional reward for the government that had been previously able to create enough space for an effective behaviour of individuals. Therefore introducing more private agencies should not be regarded as the most suitable solution.
