The Mechanics of Freedom. Chapter 4.

I have posted the translation of the short fourth chapter The Machinery of Freedom by David Friedman. So far, the process is funded only by Bitarch, but you have the opportunity to add your own name to the acknowledgments section when preparing the final text, which I will definitely do. I would be glad to receive your donations to pay for the translation to a separate wallet: 1AFkD2bazCs5YZBBrSD7HsRMWLmRbg6QBo

I also invite everyone interested to write their reviews of the book. I would like to attach the most insightful ones to the translated text. Preferably, of course, not in the “read it – liked it” format, but of a more review-analytical nature.

The Mechanics of Freedom. Chapter 2.

I’ve posted the second chapter of David Friedman’s “The Machinery of Freedom”; it’s quite short. The third was posted a couple of months ago, and the fourth is currently being translated. In short, the process has started.

Once we finish the first part, I will polish the posted material to bring it to a consistent style and create an epub. I will do the same with the remaining parts.

So far, one translator has actively joined the project, and two more are getting ready while clearing other tasks. If you feel capable of taking on this work, let’s collaborate. The estimated payment is 400 rubles per standard page of source text (1,800 characters including spaces).

Mechanics of Freedom, Chapter 1

I was distracted from the translation for quite a while, but I have recently returned to it. I present to you the first chapter of David Friedman’s The Machinery of FreedomIn Defense of Property.

I hope I have enough momentum to continue the work for some time, but the best way to influence my priorities is to financially support those of my endeavors that are most interesting to you. For those who wish to sponsor the translation of The Machinery of Freedom specifically, rather than just abstractly support the project as a whole, I have set up a separate bitcoin wallet: 1AFkD2bazCs5YZBBrSD7HsRMWLmRbg6QBo

As for those who prefer to use a lightning bot in Telegram for donations, you can simply specify the purpose of the payment in the comment.

I would also be incredibly happy if you joined the translation work. It is very simple: go to the section where the original book is posted, choose any chapter that no one has taken on yet — and go for it.

Mechanics of Freedom. The Process Has Begun

So, the distributed translation of “Mechanics of Freedom” is slowly picking up pace. The first part I received was the third chapter of the book: “Love Alone is Not Enough,” and after some edits, I have just published it.

As a reminder, you can speed up the process or simply express your gratitude by sending bitcoins. On the donations page, I provide various ways to do this.

And, of course, you can always choose a chapter for yourself to translate.
