Stefan Molyneux of Free Domain Radio answers this with his DROs (Dispute Resolution Organizations). These are essentially insurance companies that pay certain parties when a contract has been broken. Outside of these kinds of organizations, you'd have to make known your plight to the local community who seeks reparations in lieu of more expensive insurance for contracts or a complete boycott of the offending parties.

@davejoe. It would happen the same way that it happens in the free market. You are in several arbitration contracts if you have credit cards and a cell phone. People can assemble and make agreements so long as they do not break the principle. Is it realistic, maybe not; but why don't we dream a little bigger than before? Roshi asks: Is the doubt you have really in other people, or is it a revelation of a kernel of doubt within you?

You also need a de-escalation principle because in places like the Middle East and Northern Ireland, the aggression was initiated a long time ago.

Dictators always claim they are defending their country from an attack or from the threat of an attack. It's a good idea but people always think they themselves are the innocent victim as in, say, a bar brawl.

I'm against non-agression.... (at least if it results in politically correct moral propaganda like this, bvadr)

@glennd7962 Voluntary-ism much less Utopian than any of these central planning schemes that keep failing over and over. It sounds like ur a libertarian tho, so Id challenge u to think thro this type of judicial system. In the end, until we dispel the notion of heaven/god of Abraham and replace it with a contemplative practice, we'll continue to let the reptilian brain overcome the frontal lobes during times of "crisis". All libertarian principles rely on r belief that most ppl r good.

@davejoe75 Of course, it can't work. While anarchists fantasize about voluntary orders emerging that would protect property and rights, they fail to digest the substantive criticism of their Utopian dreams by folks such as Robert Nozick and others. While Rothbard was brilliant and worth studying/listening to, there are many libertarians who base their moral view of libertarianism on a classical liberal basis, embracing the notion of individual sovereignty, not necessarily "non-aggression".

Can anyone explain how a arbitration/court system would work in a voluntary-ist society? If someone commits an act of aggression against me say fraud, how would I prove it and get justice?
