It Takes A Militia: A Communitarian Case For Compulsory Arms Bearing, Glenn Harlan Reynolds

Scholarly Works

In this Essay, the authors demonstrate that Communitarians and militias actually have more in common than it might at first appear. Summarizing the Communitarian agenda, the authors note that Communitarians speak a language that would be readily understood by the Framers, who saw militias as an important vehicle through which civic virtue could be transmitted.
