This differs from communitarianism , however, in that it does not value such intermediary associations more than the individual. The term was coined by Arnold Kling , a George Mason University economics professor, to clear some ground between Objectivist philosophy Randian libertarianism libertarians and those libertarians that do not base their philosophy on selfishness. In his article, Kling writes cquote The stereotypical libertarian might cite Ayn Rand and simply exalt the individual. Instead, a civil societarian would cite Alexis de Tocqueville , and his observation that Americans of all ages, all conditions, and all dispositions constantly form associations. These voluntary associations are what a civil societarian sees as the key to civilization. ref cite web url http www.tcsdaily.com article.aspx?id 022107A title Religion, Government, and CivilSociety accessdate 2007 12 13 ref He also offers the concept as an alternative to ideas that Liberals should withdraw, or try to escape, from state dominated societies. cquote I think that the big challenge for libertarians is to create conditions that enable people to exit from overbearing government.
