The Essence of Anarchy 3. What’s so Good about Consent?

Welcome to the third instalment of the Essence of Anarchy series. In this episode we’ll be asking whether we should take consent as a foundational good, requiring no further justification? Some of you may answer ‘yes’—and think such a thing is self-evident. Others may not be convinced, seeing this position as idealistic. We must acknowledge that such a belief in consent is clearly far from universal. History is replete with people who—believing they have found the one right way to live—see all that remains as being to impose that way on everybody else, consent not being required.
