"How an Anarchist Society Would Provide National Defense: The Solution to Libertarianism's Hardest Problem" is a 1980 lecture by libertarian anarchist historian/economist Prof. Jeff Hummel. I recently found it and think it adds a good broad perspective to Murphy's "Market for Security" lecture and "Chaos Theory" essays. I recommend it to anyone who is interested:
