He is a radical to be sure, in his book he makes a convincing argument that we must be radicals if we hope to in any way roll back the Levithan state.

He is that too LOL

"In order to restore social and cultural norms, true conservatives can only be radical libertarians" That's ridiculous.

I found this difficult to fathom initially too, until I studied the issue fruther. Hoppe's ideas focus on the concept of "natural order, very Burkean overall. Society cannot be artifically created from the top down it must develop naturally. He makes an excellent case for this by examining the social mileau of Europe after the collapse of Rome where no central authority existed.
