Anthony de Jasay's work has been enormously influential, describing both a theoretical philosophical model for a stateless, liberal, free market order and offering analysis of and solutions to many of the technical economic problems associated with such a vision of society - most notably his work on the free rider and his return. In this book ten significant scholars in philosophy and political economy, including Nobel laureate in economics James Buchanan, pay tribute to the man and his work in a series of essays at once both respectful and critical. Ordered Anarchy focuses on three fundamental questions of libertarian thinking. Which are the basic libertarian principles and how do rights and liberties relate to each other? Is order possible and durable in an anarchic or quasi-anarchic society, and if so, under which preconditions? How and to what extent are the pillars of politics, such as the constitution, institutions and government, detrimental or beneficial to an enduring free society? While Narveson, Palmer and Bouillon focus on the first of these questions, the late Radnitzky and van Dun address the second. Benson, Holcombe and Kliemt provide answers to question number three, while Buchanan and Little highlight the role of Anthony de Jasay in this debate and the inspiration that his thinking has given to the authors of this volume.

Der Mangel an Spenderorganen in der Transplantationsmedizin ist ein Thema von hoher gesellschaftlicher Relevanz. Da jedes Jahr in Deutschland 1.000 Patienten auf der Warteliste sterben, darf die Gesellschaft den Organmangel nicht ignorieren, sondern muss immer wieder von neuem nach Lösungen suchen und ohne Tabus über unterschiedliche Handlungsoptionen diskutieren. Die vorliegende Studie ist das Ergebnis einer interdisziplinären Forschungsarbeit. Sie geht den Ursachen des Organmangels auf den Grund und zeigt Wege zu seiner Behebung auf. Sie richtet sich somit an Wissenschaft, Betroffene, Medizin, Politik und interessierte Öffentlichkeit. Im Fokus der Untersuchung steht neben der Lebendspende vor allem die postmortale Organspende. Entscheidende Faktoren, die zur Erhöhung des Organaufkommens führen können, sind die Beteiligung der Krankenhäuser an der Erkennung potentieller Organspender und die Erlaubnis einer Organentnahme durch Spender oder Angehörige. Es werden Strategien aufgezeigt, diese Faktoren positiv zu beeinflussen.
