Dive into the complexities and controversies of gun control using the framework of political-economy to explore thought-provoking implications on criminal justice, self-defense, personal liberty, social cohesion, the administration of law, constitutional order, republican federalism, and the role of government in a free society. Drawing from a wide range of sources, historical examples, philosophical insights, and causal-realist analysis, this book challenges conventional wisdom and invites readers to critically examine their beliefs about gun control, security production, and the United States Constitution’s Second Amendment.
