    Extraits de Lysander Spooner, , traduit de l'anglais par Jeannie Carlier, Paris, Belles Lettres (collection "Iconoclastes" dirigée par Alain Laurent et Pierre Lemieux), 1991.
    Edition originale: The Constitution of No Authority , Boston, 1870. Puisque tout vote est secret (par scrutin secret), et puisque tout gouvernement secret est par nécessité une association secrète de voleurs, tyrans et assassins, le fait général que notre gouvernement, dans la pratique, opère par le moyen d'un tel vote prouve seulement qu'il y a parmi nous une association secrète de voleurs, tyrans et assassins, dont le but est de voler, asservir et s'il le faut pour accomplir leurs desseins assassiner le reste de la population. Le simple fait qu'une telle association existe ne prouve en rien que "le peuple des Etats-Unis", ni aucun individu parmi ce peuple, soutienne volontairement la Constitution. Le fait est que le gouvernement, comme un bandit de grand chemin, dit à un individu: "La bourse ou la vie." Quantité de taxes, ou même la plupart, sont payées sous la contrainte d'une telle menace. Il est clair que, selon les principes généraux du Droit et de la raison, il n'existe rien qui ressemble à un gouvernement créé par ou reposant sur un quelconque consentement, ou une convention ou un accord passé par "le peuple des Etats-Unis" avec lui-même; que le seul gouvernement visible, tangible et responsable qui existe est celui d'un petit nombre d'individus, qui agissent de concert, et se font appeler de noms divers tels que sénateurs, représentants, présidents, juges, huissiers, trésoriers, percepteurs, généraux, colonels, capitaines, etc., etc.

    No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority by Lysander Spooner (Lysander Spooner (1808-1887) was a Massachusetts lawyer noted for his vigorous and brilliant opposition to the encroachment of the State upon the liberty of the individual. His writings on the unconstitutionality of slavery influenced pre-Civil War thought. His challenge to the postal monopoly (he set up a thriving private post) resulted in an Act of Congress sharply reducing postage rates. Unfortunately, he was so successful that Congress finally outlawed his enterprise.

    Lysander Spooner Tom G. Palmer [reprinted from a review of The Lysander Spooner Reader, August 1992] everything you learned in high school, then nobody can. It has been nearly twenty years since I read Spooner in high school, and my life has not been the same since. After wrestling with Spooner's tightly reasoned arguments against the state in No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority you'll never look at the government the same way again. I guarantee it. (It's also guaranteed to get you in trouble with your high school principal, as it did me.) A Fascinating Figure Lawyer, abolitionist, radical, friend of liberty: that was Lysander Spooner, one of the most fascinating figures to emerge from American history. A ferocious opponent of slavery, he supported the right of secession. An ardent enemy of statist legislation, he was a brilliant jurist who put his faith in the law. An eloquent foe of prohibition of alcohol or drugs, he offered a moral defense of liberty. Spooner inspired both John Brown's anti-slavery raid on Harper's Ferry and the "Spooner Acts" passed by the U.S. Congress to put his private post office out of business and cement the state's postal monopoly. But try to find his name in a high school or college history textbook. Uh-uh—too radical.

    The science of mine and thine-the science of justice - is the science of all human rights; of all a man's rights of person and property; of all his rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is the science which alone can tell any man what he can, and cannot, do; what he can, and cannot, have; what he can, and cannot, say, without infringing the rights of any other person. It is the science of peace; and the only science of peace; since it is the science which alone can tell us on what conditions mankind can live in peace, or ought to live in peace, with each other. These conditions are simply these: viz., first, that each man shall do, towards every other, all that justice requires him to do; as, for example, that he shall pay his debts, that he shall return borrowed or stolen property to its owner, and that he shall make reparation for any injury he may have done to the person or property of another. The second condition is, that each man shall abstain from doing so another, anything which justice forbids him to do; as, for example, that he shall abstain from committing theft, robbery, arson, murder, or any other crime against the person or property of another.

    LYSANDER SPOONER
    Lysander Spooner (1808-1887) was a practising lawyer and businessman in Massachussetts. He was an ardent individualist, who attacked all sorts of government activities, such as the postal monopoly, and opposed slavery on the ground that it was unconstitutional and in conflict with natural law. He was a strong proponent of a naturalistic approach to natural law, which is the order of peaceful coexistence among human beings.
    Below you will find a copy of the text of Spooner's tract on Natural Law as well as of his celebrated text on the American constitution: No Treason, The Constitution of No Authority

    A Vindication of Moral Liberty
    by Lysander Spooner I Vices are those acts by which a man harms himself or his property. Crimes are those acts by which one man harms the person or property of another. Vices are simply the errors which a man makes in his search after his own happiness. Unlike crimes, they imply no malice toward others, and no interference with their persons or property. In vices, the very essence of crime - that is, the design to injure the person or property of another - is wanting. It is a maxim of the law that there can be no crime without a criminal intent; that is, without the intent to invade the person or property of another. But no one ever practises a vice with any such criminal intent. He practices his vice for his own happiness solely, and not from any malice toward others. Unless this clear distinction between vices and crimes be made and recognized by the laws, there can be on earth no such thing as individual right, liberty, or property, and the corresponding and coequal rights of another man to the control of his own person and property. For a government to declare a vice to be a crime, and to punish it as such, is an attempt to falsify the very nature of things. It is as absurd as it would be to declare truth to be falsehood, or falsehood truth.

    CHAPTER I. THE RIGHT OF JURIES TO JUDGE OF THE JUSTICE OF LAWS
    SECTION I.
    FOR more than six hundred years that is, since Magna Carta, in 1215 there has been no clearer principle of English or American constitutional law, than that, in criminal cases, it is not only the right and duty of juries to judge what are the facts, what is the law, and what was the moral intent of the accused; but that it is also their right, and their primary and paramount duty, to judge of the justice of the law, and to hold all laws invalid, that are, in their opinion, unjust or oppressive, and all persons guiltless in violating, or resisting the execution of, such laws. Unless such be the right and duty of jurors, it is plain that, instead of juries being a "palladium of liberty" a barrier against the tyranny and oppression of the government they are really mere tools in its hands, for carrying into execution any injustice and oppression it may desire to have executed.

    Introductory
    The question of treason is distinct from that of slavery; and is the same that it would have been, if free States, instead of slave States, had seceded. On the part of the North, the war was carried on, not to liberate the slaves, but by a government that had always perverted and violated the Constitution, to keep the slaves in bondage; and was still willing to do so, if the slaveholders could be thereby induced to stay in the Union. The principle, on which the war was waged by the North, was simply this: that men may rightfully be compelled to submit to, and support, a government that they do not want; and that resistance, on their part, makes them traitors and criminals. No principle, that is possible to be named, can be more self-evidently false than this; or more self-evidently fatal to all political freedom. Yet it triumphed in the field, and is now assumed to be established. If it be really established, the number of slaves, instead of having been diminished by the war, has been greatly increased; for a man, thus subjected to a government that he does not want, is a slave. And there is no difference, in principle-but only in degree-between political and chattel slavery. The former, no less than the latter, denies a man's ownership of himself and the products of his labor; and asserts that other men may own him, and dispose of him and his property, for their uses, and at their pleasure. Previous to the war, there were some grounds for saying that-in theory, at least, if not in practice-our government was a free one; that it rested upon consent. But nothing of that kind can be said now, if the principle on which the war was carried on by the North, is irrevocably established.

Yesterday Afternoon, at 12.50 o'clock, one of the most remarkable men who has ever walked the streets of Boston departed this life at his residence, 109 Myrtle street. His name, Lysander Spooner [1808-1887], is known to but a few—to fewer perhaps than 30 years ago—but, as John Boyle O'Reilly says, it will some day be honored by millions. Mr. Spooner was in his eightieth year, having been born in Athol January 19, 1808. A farmer's boy, he left agricultural life on becoming a man, and at the age of 25 entered the law office of John Davis in Worcester, continuing his studies later with another distinguished lawyer of the same city, Charles Allen. At that time there was a law on the statute books requiring three years' extra study from men not college bred as a condition of admission to the bar. Then it was that he first displayed that preference for Natural Justice over artificial legislation which ever characterized him in after life. In defiance of the statute, he opened a law office in Worcester, and began his career as a pamphleteer by supplying each member of the Legislature with an address which made the objectionable statute so ridiculous that it was straightaway repealed....

    Quote from Lysander Spooner "The principle that the majority have a right to rule the minority, practically resolves all government into a mere contest between two bodies of men, as to which of them shall be masters, and which of them slaves; a contest, that however bloody can, in the nature of things, never be finally closed, so long as man refuses to be a slave."
