At the Austrian Scholars Conference this weekend we had the good fortune of hearing from Gerard Casey of University College, Dublin, speaking on the long tradition of statelessness in Ireland. A bunch of us wondered how someone so knowledgeable within the Rothbardian tradition could have completely escaped our notice until now.
It turns out, moreover, that Professor Casey is also sound on what we shall immodestly call the Woods question, having vigorously defended the thesis I later developed in The Church and the Market.

Any idea where we can find his work on Utopia as a satire?
You’re thinking of Sam Bostaph, but I don’t know where he had that work published.
Dr. Casey’s comments were some of the best and most thought provoking through out the conference.
I’ve been digging around looking for some of his papers, but I’m coming up pretty empty handed from my university. If anybody finds some more: post links!
Yes, Casey is the man! Myself and a couple of other students had the pleasure of reading through Rothbard’s MES with Casey.
Tom, the link in the post is broken, but I think I have what you’re referring to: http://www.thomasmoreinstitute.org.uk/node/24
There is also his homepage here: http://www.ucd.ie/philosophy/staff/casey_gerard.htm
For the rest you’ll probably need Jstor or email the guy himself.
And one more thing: post his ASC lecture now!!
