Urbanism Without Government
Thursday, December 31, 2020
Asking, “But who will build the roads?” is a cliched response to proposals for a more libertarian political system. However, it leads to the interesting historical question of “Who has built the roads in anarchic societies?”
Colonial America provides a few examples that answer this question. Perhaps the best known example of anarchism in American history was in Rhode Island, or “Rogue’s Island,” founded by Baptists fleeing Massachusetts. The stateless Baptists founded the cities of Portsmouth and Warwick.
Unlike the Baptists, William Penn didn’t intend to create an anarchic colony, but Pennsylvania was, in fact,without a government from 1684 to 1691 as evidenced by Penn’s failure to successfully levy any taxes during that time.
