The Secessionist Processes from Libertarian Perspective

Resumen

The aim of the article is to present the position on the libertarian ground, especially in anarcho-capitalistic movement represented by Murray N. Rothbard, Hans-Hermann Hoppe, Llewellyn H. Rockwell and Thomas Woods that should be used when talking over the question of secession and freedom pursuits in the world. I will present the line of argumentation that leads libertarians to support pro-secessionist attitude, argumentation taking form of postulate of individual level secession. Next, I will show different libertarian argumentations defending this position, namely deontological, utilitarian and institutional argumentation etc. I will also try to show the consequences of secessionist processes. Next, I will try to describe a mechanism that could be applied to realize the ultimate libertarian goal, which is in this case, the secession of an individual. In the last section of the article, I will mention some doubts and questions which appear when trying to put through those ideas.
