Abstract

Carlo Lottieri recalls how a book written by Henri Lepage in the late 1970s helped him to come into contact with a whole tradition of classical liberal and libertarian thought: from there it was possible to discover Frédéric Bastiat, Lysander Spooner, Ludwig von Mises, Murray Rothbard, and other authors. The present belief that freedom is the highest political value and the state is illegitimate is consequent to personal readings and encounters, but also to very precise historical experiences: the re-emergence of localism in Italy, the crisis of legitimacy of public institutions throughout Europe, the recent triumph of a new type of power, which sees the properly political sphere interconnect with culture and economy.
