The Iron Fist Behind the Invisible Hand

Anarchist Kevin Carson takes on the age-old myth that capitalism was an evolution of a "free market" of voluntary transactions. Instead, he states that capitalism required state intervention from its inception and continues to need government in order to keep its economic dominance. Carson also offers an alternative to anarchists such as Noam Chomsky in that he promotes counter-economic activities to overthrow the Corporate State rather than the Chomskyite goal of utilizing the State to break the power hold.
