Private Law Society

At the very core of the new Renaissance -- Renaissance 2.0 -- lies the concept of freedom.  While the broader concept of freedom is an absolutely vast subject matter, one of my goals is to elucidate its theoretically maximal implementation within the sphere of social and political organization.  I formulate this from what I call a "Private Law Society."


This page represents an experimental effort in writing, consisting in an outline to a book-length work that I hope to complete and at some point publish.  This outline itself will grow and change over time, but each individual bullet in the outline will be drafted and published as a separate blog post, and when available will be linked from this page.  As time goes by, this mere outline will form into a complete work available to be read in a linear fashion, but the intent is that the individual topics can be read largely independently.


Most critical in this process is your feedback -- I will accept all comments, criticisms, questions, research and supporting facts, etc., and will address and incorporate these into the work.  This is the methodology of Renaissance 2.0 -- leveraging the best of individualism and collaboration to create the best possible works of art, literature, and music.  So without further adieu, I present...
