He published the collection under the title "The Meaning of Truth" in 1909, the year before his death.

We reject electoral politics, in theory and in practice as incompatible with libertarian goals.

Voluntarists seek instead to delegitimize the state through education, and we advocate withdrawal of the cooperation and tacit consent on which state power ultimately depends.
