The '''Libertarian Movement''' , '''ML''') is a political party in Italy which espouses a typically libertarian platform, namely minimal regulation of society, free markets, strong defense of natural rights of liberty and property, [[non-interventionism]] in foreign policy and ''[[laissez-faire]]'' freedom of trade and travel to all foreign countries. Its founders are [[Wikipedia:Leonardo Facco|Leonardo Facco]] and [[Wikipedia:Giorgio Fidenato|Giorgio Fidenato]]. Fidenato left the movement on April 15, 2020 after a dispute arose from Fidenato's endorsement of the Covid related policies by the Italian government.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.movimentolibertario.com/2020/10/dimissioni-fidenato/|title=Fidenato Ha Lasciato Il Movimento: Dimissioni Annunciate Ad Aprile|access-date=31 March 2021|date=1 October 2020}}</ref> The party has as its symbol two black hands shaking and a yellow background in reference to its membership in the anarcho-capitalist.


The terms '''Movimento Libertario''' (''Libertarian Movement'' in English) in Italian language has a dual meanings.
ML was started as a cultural association on 24 September 2005 in Treviglio with the writing of the ''Manifesto and Constitution of the Libertarian Movement'' by Facco. Two years after, ML was transformed into a party by Facco, Fidenato and Marcello Mazzilli. The party's goal is to defend life, liberty and property of each individual within a strong [[free market]] system.<ref>[http://opinione.it/articolo.php?arg=14&art=61183 "The libertarian way to happiness"], ''L'Opinione'', by Elisa Borghi.

Historically, first refers to the popular [[Italian anarchism]] movements<ref>{{cite book | last = Woodcock | first = George | title = L'anarchia: storia delle idee e dei movimenti libertari | publisher = Feltrinelli Editore | location = Milano | year = 1966}}</ref>.
 
Now coexists with the sense of anti-state, [[libertarianism]] (in Anglo-Saxon meaning) organisation.
 
Specifically the second meaning is used here to refer to a political party and a cultural movement (''Movimento Libertario'', acronym  ML) based in [[Italy]] characterized by a [[libertarian]] cultural and [[political platform]]: minimal regulation of Italian society, [[liberism]] of the markets, strong defense of natural rights of [[liberty]] and [[property]], [[non-interventionism]] in foreign policy, and [[laissez-faire]] freedom of trade and travel to all foreign countries.

=== Foundation ===
 
The Movimento Libertario was originally only an Italian cultural association for the dissemination of [[libertarianism]].
 
As a cultural association, the Movimento Libertario began on September 24, 2005, in [[Treviglio]] with the writing of the "''Manifesto and Constitution of the Movimento Libertario''" by Leonardo Facco<ref name="manifesto">Leonardo Facco. [http://digilander.libero.it/cssc/liborg/enclave/MANIFESTO.doc "Manifesto and Constitution of the Movimento Libertario"], Treviglio, September 24, 2005</ref>.  


The Movimento Libertario became also an Italian political subject when it is officially founded in September 2007 by [[Leonardo Facco]], [[Giorgio Fidenato]] and Marcello Mazzilli<ref>[http://opinione.it/articolo.php?arg=14&art=61183 ''The libertarian way to happiness''] ''L'Opinione'', by Elisa Borghi.

The Movimento Libertario has as its symbol a round disk with a yellow-gold background in reference to the [[gold standard]] and also to its membership in the [[anarcho-capitalist]] movement.


The symbol is part of the assets of the Association<ref name="statute" />.
==Ideology==
ML takes inspiration from the classical liberalism of [[John Locke]] and the Founding Fathers of the United States conjugated to the 19th-century American individualist anarchist strand of [[Benjamin Tucker]], [[Henry David Thoreau]] and [[Lysander Spooner]].<ref name="theory">[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=49&Itemid=55 ''The political theory of libertarian''] political, cultural and economic references of the Movimento Libertario</ref> On the economy, ML takes inspiration from the [[Austrian School]] and the theoretic formulation of philosopher and economist [[Murray Rothbard]]. The actions in favor of tax resistance, free entrepreneurship and political non-voting also recall the agorist reflections by [[Samuel Edward Konkin III]], although ML does not officially identify itself in programmatic positions and spectrum of the American left-libertarians. ML also includes some aspects from the American model of liberty ([[minarchism]]) theorized by [[Robert Nozick]] and the [[Objectivism]] philosophy described in novels by [[Ayn Rand]]. ML refers to freedom of association of the anarchist federalism, anarcho-capitalist free market society and to the Jeffersonian limited government of classical liberalism.


Inside the top are the words in Italian (in black color) "''Proprietà''" and "''Libertà''", and are references to natural rights believed essential by libertarians.  
ML holds an anti-federalist stance on European integration. It is against the transformation of the European Union into a federation, preferring the voluntary accession and the unanimity of a confederation. The term _federalism_ as it is used by ML means decentralization and fiscal federalism as opposed to the Italian highly centralized state. Party icons include [[Wikipedia:Ferdinando Galiani|Ferdinando Galiani]], [[Wikipedia:Cesare Beccaria|Cesare Beccaria]], [[Wikipedia:Filippo Mazzei|Filippo Mazzei]], [[Wikipedia:Emerico Amari|Emerico Amari]], [[Wikipedia:Carlo Cattaneo|Carlo Cattaneo]], [[Wikipedia:Gaetano Mosca|Gaetano Mosca]], [[Wikipedia:Vilfredo Pareto|Vilfredo Pareto]], [[Wikipedia:Luigi Einaudi|Luigi Einaudi]], [[Wikipedia:Bruno Leoni|Bruno Leoni]] and [[Wikipedia:Gianfranco Miglio|Gianfranco Miglio]]. Despite being officially a party, ML has spoken in favor of non-voting.<ref>[http://opinione.it/articolo.php?arg=10&art=70685 "Classic liberals at the polls: what to do?"] ''L'Opinione'', by Gustavo Cevolani. Retrieved on April 10, 2008.</ref> A party slogan says: "Neither right nor left, nor centrist. Simply free is better".


In the center of the disk, the symbol of the movement, is a stylized image of a black crossbow.
==Political Actions==
<!-- ===Against the Withholding Tax===
{{for|the party's battle against the withholding tax|Giorgio Fidenato#Against the withholding tax}} -->


The weapon is an homage to nearby [[Switzerland]] and in particular to legendary [[William Tell]], as a symbol of fiscal rebellion for federalist political autonomy and independence of people.  
===Battle to Sow GMO Maize===
<!-- {{for|the party's stance on the right to sow GMO maize|Giorgio Fidenato#The right to sow GMO maize}} -->
Giorgio Fidenato and ML favor the free cultivation and commercialization of GMO seeds and food. They support no limits to GMOs in Italy, consumer freedom to choose their own products and freedom of private scientific research as long as it respect the natural human rights and it does not use public money.


Below the image appears the written "''Movimento Libertario''"; the terms are used in reference to political entity but also to define the nature of individual human action (''Movimento'') and to define, in broad sense, those theories which give primacy to individual [[choice]] before the claims of any political power (''Libertario'').
In this respect, Fidenato and his Federated Farmers (Agricoltori Federati) were subjected to threats and acts of violent vandalism in their headquarters by an anti-globalization and environmentalist group for their position on GMO maize.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y66sP-6e4nY "Video about violent protests by environmentalists and no-global movements against Italian Federated Farmers"].</ref><ref>[http://www.agi.it/trieste/notizie/201004302035-cro-rts1025-ogm_fvg_oppositori_irrompono_in_sede_agricoltori_federati "GMO: FVG, opponents bursts within Federated Farmers"], ''Agi News'' Retrieved on April 30, 2010.</ref><ref>[http://www.ilgiornale.it/interni/mais_ogm_scoppia_guerra_seme/01-05-2010/articolo-id=442040-page=0-comments=1 "GMO maize, war breaks out of the seed"], ''Il Giornale'', by Fausto Biloslavo.

The term ''libertario'' is an Italian word that has a dual meaning, in Italy historically refers to the European [[anarchist]] movements (''libertarism'') with a marxian and [[social anarchist]] ispirations.
===Spectrum Internal Libertarianism===
The Movimento Libertario is formally neutral as libertarian ideology, with an anarcho-capitalist vision, a voluntaryist organization and an agorist practices as characteristics.


The anarchist socialist tradition use the term ''libertario'' to describe themselves and their ideas since 1857.  
Unlike the United States, in Italy and in the Movimento Libertario there are not internal controversies among the identity of libertarian term between libertarians members or a clear distinction between the right libertarian](paleolibertarian and libertarian conservatives) members and left libertarians (the latter understood in their sense of American left libertarians Rothbardian like agorist, [[panarchist]] not to the European libertarian socialists) because the libertarian schools no presents so significant differences in their common anti-state vision.


The French [[Anarchist communism|anarchist communist]] [[Joseph Déjacque]] employed the term ''libertario'' in a political sense in an open letter criticizing [[Pierre-Joseph Proudhon]].<ref name="Graham">''[[Anarchism: A Documentary History of Libertarian Ideas]] - Volume One: From Anarchy to Anarchism (300CE-1939)]'', ed. [[Robert Graham (historian)|Robert Graham]]; includes English translations of Joseph Dejacque’s 1857 letter to Proudhon.</ref><ref name="dejacque">[http://joseph.dejacque.free.fr/ecrits/lettreapjp.htm “De l'être-humain mâle et femelle–Lettre à P.J. Proudhon par Joseph Déjacque”] (in [[French language|French]])</ref>
Moreover, these libertarian schools are not rooted in Italy if not with some representative members in the Movimento Libertario.


Déjacque said Proudhon was "libéral et non LIBERTAIRE", that is, the [[neologism]] was coined specifically as a distinction from the classical liberalism that Proudhon advocated in relation to economic exchange, in contrast to the more [[libertarian communist]] approach advocated by Déjacque.<ref name="Graham"/><ref name="Déjacque1857concerning">[http://joseph.dejacque.free.fr/etudes/neologisme.htm Pelosse, Valentin (1972). ''Joseph Déjacque and the Neologism Libertarian'']</ref>
The Movimento Libertario considers crucial to encourage what is common and unites all the various libertarian orientations, seeking to promote the protection of private property, free market and the natural law through actions and non-violent and peaceful means.


From 1858 until 1861 Déjacque published in New York a journal called ''Le Libertaire: Journal du Mouvement Social''.<ref name="Nettlau">''[http://joseph.dejacque.free.fr/libertaire/libertaire.htm Le Libertaire]—all editions online</ref><ref>{{cite book |title=A Short History of Anarchism |last=Nettlau |first=Max |authorlink=Max Nettlau |year=1996 |pages=75–6, 162}}</ref>  
===Structure and Membership===
The bodies of internal administration include the Managing Director, Board of Directors (B.o. D.), Assembly of Members (Meeting of Shareholders), Groups of Territorial Association (clans)<ref>[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=50&Itemid=57 Movimento Libertario Clan libertarians] Italian map of the presence of local clan supporters ML.</ref>, Board of Auditors, and the Enclave of Essays.


Since the 1890s the term "libertarianism" has often been used as a synonym for left wing anarchism or [[libertarian socialism]],<ref name="Nettlau"/> and exclusively so until the 1950s in the United States.<ref name=whosalib>{{cite journal |last=Russell |first=Dean |year=1955 |month=May |title=Who Is A Libertarian? |journal=The Freeman |volume=5 |issue=5 |publisher=The Foundation for Economic Education |url=http://www.thefreemanonline.org/columns/who-is-a-libertarian/ |accessdate=March 6, 2010}}</ref><ref name=AnarchismVSI>Colin Ward, [http://books.google.com/books?id=kksrWshoIkYC ''Anarchism: A Very Short Introduction''], [[Oxford University Press]], 2004, p. 62. "For a century, anarchists have used the word 'libertarian' as a synonym for 'anarchist', both as a noun and an adjective. The celebrated anarchist journal ''Le Libertaire'' was founded in 1896.

In the '60s of XX century, Italian jurist and philosophy classic liberal, [[Bruno Leoni]]<ref>Antonio Masala, ''Il liberalismo di Bruno Leoni'', Soveria Mannelli, Rubbettino, 2003.</ref>, introduced in Italy, American libertarianism concepts of natural right and ideology of private property ([[propertarianism]]) based on theorizations of Murray Newton Rothbard book ''[[Man, Economy, and State]]''.
 
In 1961, Leoni wrote his book ''[[Freedom and the Law]]''<ref>Bruno Leoni, [http://oll.libertyfund.org/index.php?option=com_staticxt&staticfile=show.php%3Ftitle=920&Itemid=27 ''Freedom and the Law''], New York, Nostrand, 1961</ref> in English, result of lectures in [[California]] in 1958.
 
In this work he points out the importance of the historical law (Roman jus civile and English [[Common law]]) and he is very critical towards modern legislation and the idea that law can be the simple outcome of a political decision.
 
Reflections on the law of Leoni, including criticism of [[Hans Kelsen]], help to better understand the extraordinary potential of the Austrian School of Social Sciences, which originated with [[Carl Menger]], [[Ludwig von Mises]], [[Friedrich von Hayek]]<ref>Carlo Lottieri, ''Bruno Leoni e l'ombra di Hayek. Libertà individuale, common law e Stato moderno'', in Antonio Masala, a cura di, ''La teoria politica di Bruno Leoni'', Soveria Mannelli, Rubbettino, 2005, p. 158.</ref> and Murray N. Rothbard.
 
Using the juridical methodological individualism, the analysis of institutions and the evolutionary origin of subjective value theory, Leoni has shown that not only the economy but the entire reflection on society can benefit greatly from the basic teachings of the austrian school.
 
Leoni did not introduced the term ''libertarianism'' in Italy but only the concepts, so these concepts strongly anti-state and against [[monopolism]] (see especially the essay  ''Mito e realtà dei monopoli'', 1965), have been interpreted by many Italians observers and intellectuals critics as a subspecies of Italian anarchism (''libertarism'').<ref>Carlo Lottieri, ''Le ragioni del diritto. Libertà individuale e ordine giuridico nel pensiero di Bruno Leoni'', Soveria Mannelli, Rubbettino, 2006.</ref>

In 1978 the French economist [[Henri Lepage]] with his book ''Demain le Capitalisme'' (''Capitalism Tomorrow'') based on an overview of the new libertarian thinkers, introduced in Europe the term ''libertarianism'' with the obvious intention to avoid misunderstandings; but after a decade of use of the Italian term ''libertario'' in reference to the concepts and principles of libertarianism, the libertarian ideas became famous under the name of ''libertarism''.
 
So in Italy coexists with the Italian term ''libertario'' the Anglo-Saxon meaning of concept libertarianism free market philosophy but also the traditional collectivist anarchism.
 
Italians libertarians of the Movimento Libertario use the Italian anarchic term ''libertario'' not to refer to European ideas and methods of traditional anarchism, but to refer to the concepts of principles of [[market liberalism]].
 
They want also to remark and increase the cultural distance from Italian and European conception of [[liberalism]], that in the XX century appeared as [[democratic liberalism]] forms of statism.
 
Italians libertarians of the ML are often prefer to define themselves as libertarians ''libertari'' but with adjective connotative of anarcho-capitalists, to distinguish themselves as pro-market supporters from the libertarians socialists or the traditionals anarchists.
 
It is prefers to use in the Italian anarchist context the indicative categories of anarcho-capitalism (as right anarchism) and [[anarcho-communist]] (as [[left anarchism]]) to indicate and clearly distinguish respectively the different [[Anarchist schools of thought|anarchist school of thought]] with Rothbardian inspiration on market and property (like the ML) from the communist inspired groups.

The American libertarianism, whether in the anarcho-capitalist form that in its various meanings attributable, claims its presence in the vision of anarchism, although this comes especially from classical liberalism carried to its extreme and radical considerations.<ref name="Norman P. Barry">Norman P. Barry, ''Del liberalismo classico e del libertarianismo'', ELiDiR , Roma, 1993</ref>
 
The anarchism in the anarcho-capitalism philosophy is a nonviolent form, that derives to the purpose of eliminate the State to realize a [[free market anarchism]] as [[voluntary society]], it is not an end in itself unlike of the [[European individualist anarchism|European anarchism traditional]] array, but rather the natural consequence of opposition to the statism.
 
Anarcho-capitalism is an individualist anarchism<ref>Adams, Ian. 2002. Political Ideology Today. p. 135. Manchester University Press; Ostergaard, Geoffrey. 2003. Anarchism. In W. Outwaite (Ed.), ''The Blackwell Dictionary of Modern Social Thought''. p. 14. Blackwell Publishing</ref> [[political philosophy]] that advocates the elimination of the Sovereign state and the elevation of the sovereign individual in a free market.
 
Traditional and collectivists Italian anarchists, they judge the ML as not a real anarchist movement, but they think that rather is a ploy of the classic liberal elite and middle class to increase social inequality.
 
They also consider that the term ''libertario'' or at least inappropriate for the nature of the movement within the Italian historical context.<ref name="Norman P. Barry" />.
 
The members of the Movimento Libertario rejects the manipolation of their identity and image by traditional and collectivist anarchists, and claim for themselves the correctness of the use of the definition of Italian anarchist libertarian (''libertari''), stressing their opposition to the use of bombs and violence by the [[insurrectionary anarchism]].

=====The criticism to the anarchism and anarcho-collectivist about the future perspective of society=====
 
{{See also|Anarchism and anarcho-capitalism}}
 
If the anarchism considers also the anarcho-capitalism as movement that tend to want to keep the rules without state, in turn the anarcho-capitalism considers acceptable only the rules that derives from natural rights.
 
The anarcho-capitalism libertarian criticizes the anarchism and [[collectivist anarchism]], because they tends to focus without consistency on the objectives anti-statists, they both believe that a [[spontaneous order]] based on market competition and exchange is impossible.
 
According to the anarchocapitalist, the traditional anarchism tends only to develop itself as an ultimate violent goal they interpret the concept of anarchy as synonymous of [[anomie]] without rules, scaring the people with the violence.

Traditional social anarchists are incapable of understanding the natural dynamics of free market economy choice and the difference with the corporative state economy, the anarcho-communism don't defend the freedom of choice through the abolition of property with the individual subordination to the community.
 
The Movimento Libertario believes that only the anarcho-capitalist option, based on [[private property]] and respect for natural rights, is a prerequisited for a future peaceful free-market society without a state in Italy.
 
The functions now performed by the [[Welfare State]] should return to free associations, community and voluntary philanthropic spirit.
 
In an anarcho-capitalist society, [[Police|law enforcement]], [[court]]s, and all other security services would be provided by voluntarily-funded competitors such as [[private defense agencies]] rather than through [[tax]]ation, and [[money]] would be [[free banking|privately and competitively provided]] in an open market.
 
According to anarcho-capitalists, personal and [[economic]] activities would be regulated by the [[natural law]]s of the [[market]] and through [[private law]] rather than through [[politics]].
 
Promoting a common framework of action and shared principles, does not mean that reality to must to be necessarily only a utilitarian development anarcho-capitalist model strictly, or necessarily a teleological-purposive as an anarcho-capitalist identity in terms of principal presence.
 
It is possible that within the general context of acceptance of [[property right]]s, free trade and non-aggression axiom between individuals, can be formed on the territory other future models related to different forms of social-economic libertarian perspectives in peaceful competition with each.<ref>Friedman, David D.

Although it is highly doubtful that these future models of alternative development they can lead wealth and prosperity if will miss the awareness of an underlying a future respect on the principles between people of enclaves.
 
Anarcho-capitalist libertarians believe that the only just, and/or most economically-beneficial, way to acquire property is through voluntary [[trade]], gift, or labor-based [[homestead principle (ethics)|original appropriation]], rather than through aggression or fraud.<ref>[[Paul Avrich|Avrich, Paul]].

===Inspiration===
 
{{Individualism sidebar}}
{{Objectivist movement}}
 
The Movimento Libertario is politically inspired by the classical liberalism of [[John Locke]] and the [[Founding Fathers of the United States]] conjugated to nineteenth-century [[Individualist anarchism in the United States|American individualist anarchist]] strand of [[Benjamin Tucker]], [[Henry David Thoreau]] and [[Lysander Spooner]].<ref>Paolo Zanotto, [http://www.unisi.it/ricerca/dip/gips/document/monografie/mon_02.pdf ''Il Movimento Libertario americano dagli anni sessanta ad oggi: radici storico-dottrinali e discriminanti ideologico-politiche''], Siena, Università degli Studi di Siena, 2001. Archived from [http://www.unisi.it http://www.unisi.it]</ref>
 
In economy it is inspired on lessons of the [[Austrian school]] and in particular to the theoric formulation of the philosopher and economist libertarian anarcho-capitalist Murray N. Rothbard.
 
It also includes some aspects from the American model of liberty theorized by [[Robert Nozick]] ([[minarchism]]) and the [[Objectivism (Ayn Rand)|Objectivism]] phylosophy described in novels by [[Ayn Rand]]<ref>[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=49&Itemid=55  Movimento Libertario Libertarianism] political, cultural and economic references</ref>.
 
The Movimento Libertario refers to [[freedom of association]] of the anarchic federalism, anarcho-capitalist free market society and to the Jeffersonian limited government of classical liberalism.
 
The term "[[federalism]]" as it is used by the Movimento Libertario, in a sense to be in favor of a political of [[decentralization]] and for a real local fiscality against the [[centralism]] of the national Italian State<ref>[http://ricerca.gelocal.it/ilcentro/archivio/ilcentro/2005/10/05/CPAPO_CPA01.html ''Electoral Finance Act''] ''Il centro'' by Leonardo Facco. page 10.

It is not used to mean the increase of central power.
 
The Movimento Libertario is an [[anti-federalist]] organization about the Europe, it is against the federal European Union government, preferring the voluntary accession and the unanimity of a [[Confederation]].
 
Historians Italian thinkers of reference for the Movimento Libertario in economy and policy include [[Ferdinando Galiani]], [[Cesare Beccaria]], Paolo Balsamo, [[Filippo Mazzei]], [[Emerico Amari]], Francesco Ferrara, Giuseppe Todde, Giovanni Pinna Ferrà, Tullio Martello, [[Carlo Cattaneo]], Edoardo Giretti, [[Gaetano Mosca]], [[Vilfredo Pareto]], [[Luigi Einaudi]], Bruno Leoni, [[Gianfranco Miglio]] and Sergio Ricossa.

The Movimento Libertario collaborates actively with the members of [http://www.liberisti.org/ Swiss Liberist Party of Canton Ticino] and their Association (ALT), in cultural and economic free market iniziatives (conferences and publications like ''I Fogli di Enclave'') between libertarians subjects in Italy and Canton Ticino. 
 
In January 2010, Leonardo Facco, announced the intention to delegate ownership of his publishing company to the Movimento Libertario, in order to promote the continuity in the future of the activities of the movement by ensuring private self-financing through the sale of books and content published.
 
== Platform==
 
[[Image:Nolan-chart.svg|thumb|left|170px|The [[Nolan Chart]], with the traditional left-right [[political spectrum]], as seen by [[David Nolan (Libertarian Party)|David Nolan]], on the dashed diagonal]]
 
Respecting the historical definition of libertarian, unlike to the [[Libertarian Party (United States)]], the Movimento Libertario want bring in Italy the same contents of others libertarians parties and movements in the world  but with the practice of [[non-voting]]<ref>[http://opinione.it/articolo.php?arg=10&art=70685 ''Classic liberals at the polls: what to do?''] ''L'Opinione'', by Gustavo Cevolani. Retrieved on April 10, 2008.</ref>, thus not directly participating in political Italian elections with the symbol of the Movimento Libertario <ref name="manifesto" /><ref name="statute" />.
 
Although in fact the Movimento Libertario is an officially registered Italian political party, as [[anti-statist]] party disclaims the [[Sovereign state|State]] legality and its political elections.
 
As a formal Italian political party it may decide to participate in the Italian political competition (at different levels) supporting from the outside its candidates through civic lists, or support the claims of parties close to its cultural vision in order to make its voice and disseminate ideas <ref name="statute" />.
 
The Movimento Libertario is not classifiable in the political-ideologic traditions of the twentieth century presents in Italy.
 
For its anti-statism positions in favor of free choice of individuals and free market, the Movimento Libertario is severely criticized by many Italian politicians.
 
Both centre-right and centre-left parties and coalitions in Italy, criticize the ML proposing about the economic cuts of taxes and the reduction of State presence in the economy.
 
In the civil rights context, the centre-right criticized the ML in particular for the individual choice about abortion and the anti-prohibitionism battle, while the centre-left for the private healthcare and the abolition of wiretaps by the judiciary.
 
Like other libertarians entities in the world, the subject respects the [[political spectrum]] of [[Nolan Chart]].
 
One of its slogans said: "''Neither right nor left, nor centrist. Simply free is better''".
 
===Internal libertarianism spectrum===
 
The Movimento Libertario is formally neutral as libertarian ideology, with an anarcho-capitalist and [[voluntaryist]] vision as its characteristic.
 
Unlike the U.S., in Italy and in the Movimento Libertario there are not internal controversies among the identity of libertarian term between libertarians members or a clear distinction between the [[right libertarian]]s ([[paleolibertarian]] and [[libertarian conservatism|libertarian conservatives]]) members and left libertarians (the latter understood in their sense of American left libertarians Rothbardian like [[agorist]], [[panarchist]] not to the European libertarian socialists) because the libertarian schools no presents so significant differences in their common anti-state vision.
 
Moreover, these alternative libertarian schools are not present or they are not rooted in Italy if not with some representative members in the Movimento Libertario.
 
==== The case of "anarchists analytical"====
 
Outside the Movimento Libertario, there are some Italians [[individual anarchist]] and former libertarians (like [[Luigi Corvaglia]], Ricccardo La Conca, Fabio Massimo Nicosia) called "anarchists analytical" that have not joined in the ML, preferring a vision of theoretical synthesis between Rothbardian libertarianism and anarchism or libertarian socialism.
 
In the "anarchists analytical" group (that is not a political party but only a cultural movement), the coherent and rigorous vision of the Movimento Libertario about the defense of market ideas in all its aspects, is often interpreted and criticized as a tendency to moral conservatism (without any form of ethical relativism).
 
If this is true as regards the theoretical level of the libertarian principles on the natural rights of property and about the free market, it is false as regards the freedom of individual choice (for himself in the context of respect of the others individuals).
 
=== Structure and membership===
 
The bodies of internal administration include the Managing Director, Board of Directors (B.o.

===Principles===
{{Libertarianism sidebar}}
The Movimento Libertario in its founding act declares and acknowledges libertarian principles as internals to its Statute<ref name="statute" />:
* The  [[Political freedom|Freedom]], understood as the absence of constraint is a natural right of the individual, which nobody (private or public organization) must threaten;
* The [[Government]], in its various variants, forces people to obey blindly and accept legislation invasive and oppressive monopoly;
* Everyone has the right to seek their own happiness and that of his loved ones, taking responsibility for their actions;
* Each individual is entitled organize in freedom themselves to protect their lives and their belongings, particularly given the enormous difficulties posed by the power of politicians at all levels;


==Principles==
In its party's constitution, ML acknowledges the following libertarian principles:
* Freedom understood as the absence of constraint is a natural right of the individual, which nobody (private or public organization) must threaten.
* The government in its various variants forces people to obey blindly and accept legislation invasive and oppressive monopoly.
* Everyone has the right to seek their own happiness and that of his loved ones, taking responsibility for their actions.
* Each individual is entitled organize in freedom themselves to protect their lives and their belongings, particularly given the enormous difficulties posed by the power of politicians at all levels.

* The need to eliminate and reduce the state, politicians and bureaucracies in the everyday life, increasingly recognizing the dignity of all people working really, producing their own resources and possessions.
* Property is a natural and inalienable right of man, primarily the property of themselves, of the own bodies and of one's life.


* The Property is a natural and inalienable right of man, is primarily the property of themselves, of the own bodies and of one's life.
It can not be granted or denied by any social system, whether democratic or authoritarian.
Property also means all that belongs to the person and that is not the result of an act of violence, but by the work of the person, the acquisition and transformation of the state of nature and with free interaction of individuals<ref name="manifesto" />.
===Purpose===
The Movimento Libertario, as political movement, is founded with the aim of reducing government to its lowest terms, in order to provide space for free interaction between individuals, or community consensus of individuals, who seek redress of their market needs <ref name="manifesto" /><ref name="aboutus" />.
Every member is said to have a moral duty to liberate the forces of civil society and free trade, eliminating any form of intervention in defense of individual liberties <ref>Leonardo Facco. [http://digilander.libero.it/cssc/liborg/documenti/Programma_politico.pdf "Political Program of the Movimento Libertario"]</ref>.
The Movimento Libertario Statute<ref name="statute" /> considers necessary for Italy:
* The return to full and effective [[Self-ownership|individual sovereignty]] over their lives and their belongings, which belongs to the natural right to govern themselves through non-violent methods of coercion or by exercising the right to self-determination is that the sacred principles of resistance and opposition to any kind of tax;
* The rights of the individual nature of a right of ownership of their bodies and their belongings held lawfully, in fulfillment of the Rothbardian [[Non-aggression axiom]]:
{{quotation| ''"I define [[anarchist]] society as one where there is no legal possibility for coercive aggression against the person or property of any individual. Anarchists oppose the State because it has its very being in such aggression, namely, the expropriation of private property through taxation, the coercive exclusion of other providers of defense service from its territory, and all of the other depredations and coercions that are built upon these twin foci of invasions of individual rights."'' - [[Murray Newton Rothbard]] in ''Society and State''}}

As is registered in its name, the Movimento Libertario wants promote in the Italian civil society the natural rights to life, liberty, property and the pursuit of happiness.
Each share of the Movimento, which would achieve the above purposes, is based on the principle of [[non-violence]]: "''no one can attack the person and the property of others''"<ref name="manifesto" />.

===Relationship with other liberal italians intellectuals and political party===
 
{{Liberalism sidebar}}
 
Among the political groups outside the ML there is the case of the [[Italian Radicals]] members of the Italian [[Radical Party (Italy)|Radical Party]] that refer to certain principles of [[libertarian left|left libertarianism]], which although part of the coalition of centre-left with [[Democratic Party (Italy)|Democratic Party]], they offer a [[social liberalism|social liberal]] view favorable to free market and private property, together with a vision of the left liberalism in particular as regards the vision of civil rights and the secular State.
 
The Italian Radicals called sometimes themselves as "socialists", but they are not properly defined within a European vision of libertarianism of the left (radical socialism) because they are members of the [[ELDR]] group in the [[European Parliament]] and their economic battles are in favor of free markets and for an American reform of Italian institutions.
 
Their vision is similar to the American left libertarians for their [[pacifism]] and nonviolence with some elements of libertarian socialism although historically they tend to refer to [[Radical Party (Italy, 1877)|Italian radical risorgimental]] and to the [[Radical Party (France)|left reformist French]] models.
 
Many left-wing Italian parties refuse to recognize the Italian Radicals status of subject to left party althought their State vision is very similar to the  [[Progressivism in the United States|American "''liberals''"]] in many contexts.
 
Very often, the Italian Radicals are politically out of the coalitions as a third party.
 
Although the Movimento Libertario differ on many points from the Italian Radicals, it maintains close relations with them and their media (like [[Radio Radicale]] <ref>[http://www.radioradicale.it/soggetti/leonardo-facco Radio registrations about Leonardo Facco on Radio Radicale broadcasts.]</ref><ref>[http://www.radioradicale.it/soggetti/giorgio-fidenato Radio registrations about Giorgio Fidenato on Radio Radicale broadcasts.]</ref>) in particular as regards the battle against the withholding tax.

Parliamentary questions mentions that the Italian government still does not recognize to Giorgio Fidenato, the Italian Federated Farmers, the Movimento Libertario and Futuragra the right to sown GMO maize, as determined by decision of the [[Italian Council of State]] and European Community Directive.

Among the political groups outside the ML there is also the case of the association Libertiamo that refer to certain principles of liberalism.
 
The members comes from [[Liberal Reformers]] party and from historical factions of classical liberals, fiscal conservatives and liberal-conservatives of [[Forza Italia]] party and some ''finiano'' member of [[National Alliance (Italy)|National Alliance]].

====Selling our vote====
 
In view of the ruling on the case of [[Giorgio Fidenato]] on [[withholding tax]], the Movimento Libertario have presented in Pordenone (for the 2010 regional elections in Italy on March 28–29), an initiative entitled: "Selling our vote" <ref>[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3889:regionali-vendiamo-il-nostro-voto-per-fidenato&catid=1:latest-news "Selling our vote"] Iniziative of the Movimento Libertario in supports of Giorgio Fidenato against withholding tax during regional elections in Italy of 2010.

The intent was  to sign a contract for the candidates in the elections in which they undertook to support, in every way and publicly, the battle of Fidenato against the withholding tax.<ref>[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4004:regionali-2010-contratto-di-cessione-del-voto&catid=1:latest-news ''Regional 2010, Contract of Sale of Voting!''] Copy of the module for the political supports in favour to Giorgio Fidenato in the battle against withholding tax.

The supporters and members of the Movimento Libertario undertook to support in public the political candidates signers, guaranteeing to them the participation of Italian libertarian voters to the regional vote.
 
This initiative builds on the initiatives of the [[Americans for Tax Reform]] by [[Grover Norquist]].
 
Norquist and his association against [[taxes]] are committed to supporting the various candidates in American elections only after obtaining from them a substantial commitment to fight for tax cuts.
 
In the 2010 regional elections in Italy, the Movimento Libertario have supported the Italian Radicals regionals candidates with their ([[Bonino-Pannella List]]), signers of the contract "Selling our vote".<ref>[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4086:8-candidati-campani-insieme-a-giorgio-fidenato&catid=1:latest-news ''6(+1) Campania candidates with Giorgio Fidenato!''].

====Seminary on Vivien Kellems====
 
{{Tax resistance}}
 
Between 25 and 27 June 2010, the Movimento Libertario will hold in [[Bergamasco (AL)]] ([[Province of Alessandria]]) a three days of seminar and studies with theoretical learning and practical training on principles of libertarianism in economy, policy and culture in the contemporary society.<ref>[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4380:primo-seminario-vivien-kellems&catid=1:latest-news ''First seminar Vivien Kellems''] Retrived on March 11, 2010.</ref>
 
This first seminar will entitled "''Vivien Kellems. The rigor of the ideas, the power of action''" and it will dedicated in honor of American entrepreneur [[Vivien Kellems]] and her battle over withholding tax in 1948 that she has described herself in her book ''Toil, Taxes and Trouble''.<ref>On the Kellems case, see Vivien Kellems, ''Toil, Taxes and Trouble'' (New York: E. P. Dutton, 1952)</ref>
 
This historical fact became a model for the Italian libertarian farmer Giorgio Fidenato to start his [[civil disobedience]] and [[Tax resistance]] against the Italian [[withholding tax]].
 
The Kellems case was presented also by [[Murray Newton Rothbard]] in his book ''[[For a New Liberty]]'' <ref>Murray Newton Rothbard, ''[[For a New Liberty]]. The Libertarian Manifesto.'', pag. 86, (New York: Macmillan Publishing Co., Inc., 1973). Archived from [http://mises.org/rothbard/newlibertywhole.asp http://mises.org/]</ref>:
 
{{quotation|''The withholding feature of the income tax is a still more clear-cut instance of involuntary servitude. For as the intrepid Connecticut industrialist Vivien Kellems argued years ago, the employer is forced to expend time, labor, and money in the business of deducting and transmitting his employees' taxes to the federal and state governments — yet the employer is not recompensed for this expenditure. What moral principle justifies the government's forcing employers to act as its unpaid tax collectors? The withholding principle, of course, is the linchpin of the whole federal income tax system. Without the steady and relatively painless process of deducting the tax from the worker's paycheck, the government could never hope to raise the high levels of tax from the workers in one lump sum. Few people remember that the withholding system was only instituted during World War II and was supposed to be a wartime expedient. Like so many other features of State despotism, however, the wartime emergency measure soon became a hallowed part of the American system. It is perhaps significant that the federal government, challenged by Vivien Kellems to test the constitutionality of the withholding system, failed to take up the challenge. In February 1948 Miss Kellems, a small manufacturer in Westport, Connecticut, announced that she was defying the withholding law and was refusing to deduct the tax from her employees. She demanded that the federal government indict her, so that the courts would be able to rule on the constitutionality of the withholding system. The government refused to do so, but instead seized the amount due from her bank account. Miss Kellems then sued in federal court for the government to return her funds. When the suit finally came to trial in February 1951, the jury ordered the government to refund her money. But the test of constitutionality never came''. - [[Murray Newton Rothbard]] in [[For a New Liberty]]}}
 
The seminar will open to young people that having registered their participation in the site of the ML.<ref>[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4380:primo-seminario-vivien-kellems&catid=1:latest-news ''Enrolment at the first seminar Vivien Kellems''] Retrived on March 11, 2010</ref>

The Libertarian Movement , ML) is a political party in Italy which espouses a typically libertarian platform, namely minimal regulation of society, free markets, strong defense of natural rights of liberty and property, non-interventionism in foreign policy and laissez-faire freedom of trade and travel to all foreign countries. Its founders are Leonardo Facco and Giorgio Fidenato. Fidenato left the movement on April 15, 2020 after a dispute arose from Fidenato's endorsement of the Covid related policies by the Italian government.[1] The party has as its symbol two black hands shaking and a yellow background in reference to its membership in the anarcho-capitalist.

ML was started as a cultural association on 24 September 2005 in Treviglio with the writing of the Manifesto and Constitution of the Libertarian Movement by Facco. Two years after, ML was transformed into a party by Facco, Fidenato and Marcello Mazzilli. The party's goal is to defend life, liberty and property of each individual within a strong free market system.[2] The party has its registered office in the municipality of Pordenone.

The party supports both the Padanian and the Venetian independence movements.[3][4] Among other things, Facco is editor of the pro-independence and libertarian online newspaper L'Indipendenza.[5] Both Facco (who has been a leader of the libertarian faction within Lega Nord in the 1990s) and Fidenato have participated in events and demonstrations organized by separatist parties as the Padanian Union,[6] the Alpine Padanian Union[7] and Veneto State.[8][9] In November 2011, Facco proposed the creation of an Independentist Libertarian Movement (MLI) which would support all the separatist movements and parties active around Italy.[10] In the run-up of a conference of free independentists organized by L'Indipendenza,[11] Fidenato, who had been long in favour of the dissolution of Italy, endorsed the proposal.[12][13] The party has as its symbol a round disk with a yellow-gold background in reference to the gold standard and also to its membership in the anarcho-capitalist movement.

ML was started as a cultural association on 24 September 2005 in Treviglio with the writing of the Manifesto and Constitution of the Libertarian Movement by Leonardo Facco. Two years after, ML was transformed into a party by Leonardo Facco, Giorgio Fidenato and Marcello Mazzilli. The party's goal is to defend life, liberty and property of each individual within a strong free market system.[14] The party has its registered office in the Municipality of Pordenone.

The party supports both the Padanian and the Venetian independence movements.[15][16] Among other things, Facco is editor of the pro-independence and libertarian online newspaper L'Indipendenza.[17] Both Facco, who has been a leader of the libertarian faction within Lega Nord in the 1990s, and Fidenato have participated in events and demonstrations organized by separatist parties as the Padanian Union,[18] the Alpine Padanian Union,[19] Veneto State.[20][21]

In November 2011 Facco proposed the creation of an Independentist Libertarian Movement (MLI), which would support all the separatist movements and parties active around Italy.[22] In the run-up of a conference of free independentists organized by L'Indipendenza,[23] Fidenato, who had been long in favour of the dissolution of Italy, endorsed the proposal.[24][25]


Ideology

ML takes inspiration from the classical liberalism of John Locke and the Founding Fathers of the United States conjugated to the 19th-century American individualist anarchist strand of Benjamin Tucker, Henry David Thoreau and Lysander Spooner.[26] On the economy, ML takes inspiration from the Austrian School and the theoretic formulation of philosopher and economist Murray Rothbard. The actions in favor of tax resistance, free entrepreneurship and political non-voting also recall the agorist reflections by Samuel Edward Konkin III, although ML does not officially identify itself in programmatic positions and spectrum of the American left-libertarians. ML also includes some aspects from the American model of liberty (minarchism) theorized by Robert Nozick and the Objectivism philosophy described in novels by Ayn Rand. ML refers to freedom of association of the anarchist federalism, anarcho-capitalist free market society and to the Jeffersonian limited government of classical liberalism.

ML holds an anti-federalist stance on European integration. It is against the transformation of the European Union into a federation, preferring the voluntary accession and the unanimity of a confederation. The term _federalism_ as it is used by ML means decentralization and fiscal federalism as opposed to the Italian highly centralized state. Party icons include Ferdinando Galiani, Cesare Beccaria, Filippo Mazzei, Emerico Amari, Carlo Cattaneo, Gaetano Mosca, Vilfredo Pareto, Luigi Einaudi, Bruno Leoni and Gianfranco Miglio. Despite being officially a party, ML has spoken in favor of non-voting.[27] A party slogan says: "Neither right nor left, nor centrist. Simply free is better".

Political Actions

Battle to Sow GMO Maize

Giorgio Fidenato and ML favor the free cultivation and commercialization of GMO seeds and food. They support no limits to GMOs in Italy, consumer freedom to choose their own products and freedom of private scientific research as long as it respect the natural human rights and it does not use public money.

In this respect, Fidenato and his Federated Farmers (Agricoltori Federati) were subjected to threats and acts of violent vandalism in their headquarters by an anti-globalization and environmentalist group for their position on GMO maize.[28][29][30][31] The Italian Radicals referred in Parliament on the issue.[32]

Publications

Through his Leonardo Facco Editore publishing house, Facco issues two magazines: Enclave and I Fogli di Enclave. The Scientific Committee of Enclave includes Walter Block, David Friedman, Hans-Hermann Hoppe, John Hospers, Antonio Martino, Pierre Lemieux, Tibor Machan, Jan Narveson, Wendy McElroy, Ralph Raico, Robert Sirico and Thomas Szasz.[33]


Spectrum Internal Libertarianism

The Movimento Libertario is formally neutral as libertarian ideology, with an anarcho-capitalist vision, a voluntaryist organization and an agorist practices as characteristics.

Unlike the United States, in Italy and in the Movimento Libertario there are not internal controversies among the identity of libertarian term between libertarians members or a clear distinction between the right libertarian](paleolibertarian and libertarian conservatives) members and left libertarians (the latter understood in their sense of American left libertarians Rothbardian like agorist, panarchist not to the European libertarian socialists) because the libertarian schools no presents so significant differences in their common anti-state vision.

Moreover, these libertarian schools are not rooted in Italy if not with some representative members in the Movimento Libertario.

The Movimento Libertario considers crucial to encourage what is common and unites all the various libertarian orientations, seeking to promote the protection of private property, free market and the natural law through actions and non-violent and peaceful means.

Structure and Membership

The bodies of internal administration include the Managing Director, Board of Directors (B.o. D.), Assembly of Members (Meeting of Shareholders), Groups of Territorial Association (clans)[34], Board of Auditors, and the Enclave of Essays.

The Statute of the Movimento Libertario describes and regulates all bodies of internal administration and their function.

Leonardo Facco co-founder of the Association, represents from 2007 till 2011 (in according to the statute and to the internal democracy of members of Association) the role of Managing Director of the Movimento Libertario.

He represents the Movimento Libertario in their official activity.

The Movimento Libertario is organized by a system of free participation of shareholders, registered members, and sympathizers on the Italian territory.[35][36]

Any adult who registers and pays a participation fee becomes a shareholder member of the movement and therefore acquired the right to vote and actively participate to the meetings of internal bodies.

Minors, even if authorized by a single parent, may be enrolled only as members sympathizers with no rights to vote.


Principles

In its party's constitution, ML acknowledges the following libertarian principles:

  • Freedom understood as the absence of constraint is a natural right of the individual, which nobody (private or public organization) must threaten.
  • The government in its various variants forces people to obey blindly and accept legislation invasive and oppressive monopoly.
  • Everyone has the right to seek their own happiness and that of his loved ones, taking responsibility for their actions.
  • Each individual is entitled organize in freedom themselves to protect their lives and their belongings, particularly given the enormous difficulties posed by the power of politicians at all levels.
  • The need to eliminate and reduce the state, politicians and bureaucracies in the everyday life, increasingly recognizing the dignity of all people working really, producing their own resources and possessions.
  • Property is a natural and inalienable right of man, primarily the property of themselves, of the own bodies and of one's life.


Cultural Association

As a cultural association, ML aims at promoting anarchism in Italy. The association's motto is "Everyone is free to do what he thinks is right for himself, without attacking anyone, and without attacking the property rights of others". As such, the group organizes meetings, debates and conferences and issues publications.
