After a long break, Vladimir Zolotorev has published another chapter of the translation of David Friedman’s book Legal Systems Very Different from Our Own. In total, four chapters have been translated out of order as of today. Today’s is dedicated to the legal system of the Amish, who are beloved by Mikhail Svetov.

From the text, it is evident that these downshifters are sympathetic not only to many Americans, but also to Friedman himself. I wonder if they are currently facing problems because of their support for Trump…

The English original was posted on my website around the end of August. The same fate awaits the translation as it is published on mises.in.ua. Usually, corrections of minor flaws are made to the translation, but overall there is not much difference whether to read it on my site or Vladimir’s.
