As I noted here:
I published Legal Foundations of a Free Society (Houston, Texas: Papinian Press, 2023) last September, in hardcover, soft cover, and Kindle formats. A free pdf was released at the time of publication as well and the book was published under at CC0 (no rights reserved) license. Read more >>
As I explain at the AIP landing page,
For a compilation of my more recent writing on IP, see You Can’t Own Ideas: Essays on Intellectual Property (Papinian Press, 2023). And see also Stephan Kinsella, ed., The Anti-IP Reader: Free Market Critiques of Intellectual Property (Papinian Press, 2023). I stand by AIP but You Can’t Own Ideas contains a streamlined and updated version of the arguments in AIP, “Law and Intellectual Property in a Stateless Society” (ch. 6) followed by Against Intellectual Property After Twenty Years: Looking Back and Looking Forward (ch. 7) (these are also included in Part IV of Stephan Kinsella, Legal Foundations of a Free Society (Houston, Texas: Papinian Press, 2023)). Together, these two chapters my main arguments against IP. AIP and other chapters in You Can’t Own Ideas thus contain the bulk of my anti-IP ideas and will have to suffice until I tackle writing Copy This Book: The Case for Abolishing Intellectual Property (probably in 2026 or so).
