Nassim minarquismo probabilístico

Nassim Taleb’s Probabilistic Minarchism

• by Adam Gurri
•  Nassim Taleb is known mostly for his treatises on randomness and the impact of extreme but rare events—”black swans”. However, throughout his work, and especially in his last book, one gets a hint of a political philosophy. He’s been quite careful to openly swear allegiance to no particular philosophy or ideology that is in currency today, always emphasizing that he is doing his own thing. However, he has recently clarified his position somewhat, and I think at this point it is safe to put him in the minarchist camp—that is, those who believe in a minimal state with a specifically enumerated but very limited set of responsibilities. Rather than endorsing the classical justifications for minarchism, however, Taleb comes at the subject from a probabilistic point of view.
