if you only read one of these, I suggest you read Nozick's Anarchy, State and Utopia. and if you do so, try and read Rawls too. they each provide an arguably practical (yet competing) frameworks for considering real life political issues

edit: Nozick also believes the minarchist state is emergent, which I don't believe many of you endorse?
Rawls' as in A Theory of Justice?

There are a number of pretty interesting lectures by Rothbard available for free on Mises iTunes U.

yeah. you could read dewey as well but he does not present his ideas with the parsimony of rawls. and if you don't want to read nozick you can read jaspers, although the english translations aren't the best.

I already own Anarchy, State and Utopia. Will check A Theory of Justice as well.
