Why write an article on a subject you know nothing about? This is a question that Amia Srinivasan might usefully have asked herself. She is a Prize Fellow in philosophy at All Souls College, Oxford, one of the most prestigious academic positions in the academic world; and her webpage<\/a> at Oxford includes several papers of outstanding merit. You would never guess that she is a serious philosopher, though, from her article \u201cQuestions for Free-Market Moralists\u201d <\/a> in The New York Times<\/em>, October 2013. The \u201cfree-market moralist\u201d she has principally in mind is Robert Nozick, the author of Anarchy, State, and Utopia <\/em>(1974). If Srinivasan has read this book at all, the experience appears to have passed her by. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
