Roderick Tracy Long (born February 4, 1964) is an American professor of philosophy at Auburn University and left-libertarian blogger. He also serves as an editor of the Journal of Ayn Rand Studies, director and president of the Molinari Institute and a Senior Fellow[2] at the Center for a Stateless Society.[3]
Education and career[edit]
Long received a B.A. in philosophy from Harvard University and his Ph.D. from Cornell University. He edited the book Anarchism/Minarchism: Is a Government Part of a Free Country? Long was an editor of the Journal of Libertarian Studies until it ceased publication under his stewardship in 2008.
Alliance of the Libertarian Left[edit]
Long is a co-founder[4] and member of the Alliance of the Libertarian Left,[4][5] a left-libertarian organization that seeks to unite various left-libertarian groups including agorists, geolibertarians, green libertarians, left-Rothbardians, minarchists, mutualists and voluntaryists, among others.[4][6]
Philosophy[edit]
According to Long, he specializes in "Greek philosophy; moral psychology; ethics; philosophy of social science; and political philosophy (with an emphasis on libertarian/anarchist theory)".[7] Long supports what he calls "libertarian anarchy",[8] but he avoids describing this as capitalism, a term he believes has inconsistent and confusing meanings.[9]
Long is an advocate of "build[ing] worker solidarity. On the one hand, this means formal organization, including unionization—but I'm not talking about the prevailing model of 'business unions' [...] but real unions, the old-fashioned kind, committed to the working class and not just union members, and interested in worker autonomy, not government patronage".[10]
Long identifies as a peace activist and points out that a "consistent peace activist must be an anarchist".[11] He describes market anarchism as "a peaceful, consensual alternative" to society with a state,[12] and has also spoken in favor of agorism.[13] Long has identified himself as a bleeding-heart libertarian and has contributed to the Bleeding Heart Libertarians weblog.[14]
In addition to supporting privatizing the military, Long advocates a non-interventionist foreign policy.[15]
