Summary/Abstract: In this paper the author has analyzed Rothbard’s views in terms of social and eco-nomic issues in anarcho-capitalism. Market failures in the libertarian view were consid-ered as state failures (e.g. external effects, monopoly). The author has also considered opinions of critics of libertarian thought. On the ground of textual criticism this paper has demonstrated the controversy of Rothbard’s thesis and their inspirational power.
