Nozick Ch. 9 Recording for Substack Philosophy Class for Paid Subscribers

Nozick is clearly right that Locke can't coherently avoid saying parents own their children. But how NOZICK avoid having to say that? And what's this guy's theory of just original acquisition anyway?

Here’s the recording for the twenty-fifth session of our Substack philosophy class for paid subscribers. We’ve just got one chapter left of Anarchy, State, and Utopia (Ch. 10 next week), then we’ll have to skip a week when I’m back in Michigan, and then we can move on to reading G.A. Cohen’s response-book Self-Ownership, Freedom, and Equality. Oh, and remember that this and all the previous class recordings so far can be found here.
