The situation has been vastly complicated in recent decades with the rise of anarcho-capitalism, “minimal statism” and an extreme right-wing ''laissez-faire'' philosophy advocated by such theorists as Murray Rothbard and [[Robert Nozick]] and their adoption of the words “libertarian” and “libertarianism”. It has therefore now become necessary to distinguish between their [[right libertarianism]] and the [[left libertarianism]] of the anarchist tradition|title=[[Anarchist Seeds Beneath the Snow: Left-Libertarian Thought and British Writers from William Morris to Colin Ward]]|first=David|last=Goodway|publisher=Liverpool University Press|location=Liverpool|year=2006|page=4}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|quote=Within Libertarianism, Rothbard represents a minority perspective that actually argues for the total elimination of the state. However Rothbard's claim as an anarchist is quickly voided when it is shown that he only wants an end to the public state. In its place he allows countless private states, with each person supplying their own police force, army, and law, or else purchasing these services from capitalist venders...so what remains is shrill anti-statism conjoined to a vacuous freedom in hackneyed defense of capitalism.
