Starting in the 1950s, a concerted effort on the right to colonize and redefine left-leaning terms to mean variations of right-wing extreme free-market capitalism.
- Anarcho-capitalism, a contradictory term invented by Murray Rothbard.
- Classical liberalism, a retcon by Friedrich Hayek, beginning with his 1944 book The Road to Serfdom, with a later clarification in 1956 defining what he meant by the term.
- Libertarian, among others at the Foundation for Economic Education, in 1955 Dean Russell urged followers to call themselves libertarians, which was claimed to be an obscure and unused term.[1]
Notes
- ↑ Rothbard, Murray (2009). The Betrayal of the American Right. Mises Institute. p. 83. ISBN 978-1610165013. https://cdn.mises.org/The%20Betrayal%20of%20the%20American%20Right_2.pdf. Retrieved 10 November 2019. "One gratifying aspect of our rise to some prominence is that, for the first time in my memory, we, 'our side,' had captured a crucial word from the enemy. 'Libertarians' had long been simply a polite word for left-wing anarchists, that is for anti-private property anarchists, either of the communist or syndicalist variety. But now we had taken it over."
