DESCRIPTION:A guest lecture by Professor Raymond Craib of Cornell Universit
 y.\n\nCo-sponsored with Critical Social Theory at 9I制作厂免费.\n\nAbstract:聽 If
  novelist J.G Ballard and free market economist Milton Friedman got togeth
 er on the shores of a Caribbean island and built a city\, it might look li
 ke Roat谩n Pr贸spera. In the works for nearly a decade and part of a wider t
 ech-libertarian ecosystem\, RP is located in Honduras and intended to be a
  鈥渟tart-up鈥� (or 鈥渃harter鈥�) city: a private community in which few of the a
 rticles of the Honduran constitution and state regulations will apply. Des
 pite the hoopla surrounding start-up cities\, they are not new. In the 196
 0s libertarian thinkers and entrepreneurs made plans and sought out locale
 s to create what they variously called proprietary cities\, microstates\, 
 and new countries. While few\, if any\, were successful\, the consequences
  for local populations in the places with which they experimented鈥攖he Baha
 mas\, the New Hebrides\, and other areas of the southwest Pacific鈥攚ere tro
 ubling. In an era of Silicon Valley excess and efforts to translate festiv
 als such as Burning Man into political theories of the state\, a longer hi
 storical perspective may offer some insight into what to expect from this 
 new round of private city- and state-making.\n
