I just ordered it from Amazon today, because I finally finished several books I was reading before I wanted to read before Nullification.
Anyway, how is it?
I’m not sure if its aimed at anarcho-capitalists. Woods said that a lot of people who are pissed off at the current politican scene like it. Even some congressmen were using it as a reference to talk about nullification. So I think its had a great impact, but its mostly a historical exercise for a more mainstream demographic.
LIke most of Woods books, its good, although its aimed at a general audience, not an Austrain/Anarcho-capatalist. Its mostly a historical examination of the idea of nullification, and how it might be applied today.
Aside from the Constitutional/small government appeal it is actually a reasonable study into an idea which, like federalism, can be applied to non-restrictive covenants and corporate communities. While restrictive covenants appeal to some (especially religious people), some of us are more cosmopolitan. Something like a contractually ordered, integrated but localist form of order is appealing.
