Diploma Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy of the present, , language: English, abstract: This dissertation aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the political philosophy of Robert Nozick, a prominent figure in contemporary political theory. Nozick's work, particularly his influential book "Anarchy, State, and Utopia" has significantly contributed to the discourse on libertarianism and individual rights. This study critically examines Nozick's key concepts, such as the minimal state, entitlement theory, and the principle of justice in transfer. By delving into his arguments and engaging with relevant scholarly debates, this research seeks to shed light on the strengths and weaknesses of Nozick's political philosophy.

The dissertation employs a multidisciplinary approach that draws upon philosophical analysis, political theory, and legal studies. It begins by providing an overview of Nozick's intellectual background and influences, highlighting his departure from classical liberal thinkers such as John Locke. Subsequently, it explores Nozick's core ideas regarding the role of government in society and his defense of individual rights against redistributive policies.

Furthermore, this study investigates criticisms leveled against Nozick's philosophy from various perspectives. These critiques range from concerns about distributive justice to questions about the feasibility and sustainability of a minimal state. By engaging with these criticisms, this research aims to evaluate the robustness of Nozick's arguments and their implications for contemporary political thought.

In addition to analyzing Nozick's theoretical framework, this dissertation also examines its practical implications. It investigates how Nozick's ideas have influenced public policy debates in areas such as taxation, welfare provision, property rights, and economic inequality. By exploring real-world applications of his philosophy, this research seeks to assess its relevance in addressing pressing social issues.

Ultimately, this dissertation contributes to a deeper understanding of Robert Nozick's political philosophy by critically evaluating its strengths and limitations. By engaging with both supportive arguments and critiques, this research aims to provide a comprehensive analysis that will inform future discussions on libertarianism, individual rights, and the role of the state in contemporary political theory.
