Preferred term

sociology and libertarianism  

Definition

  • Sociology, properly defined, is the analytical, comparative, and historical study of societies. As such, it is an essential part of a libertarian's education because it can provide an empirical basis for assessing the kinds of institutional arrangements that allow liberty to flourish in contrast to those institutions that are inimical to its development.
