Libertarianism is a political philosophy that derives the principles of the structure of society from the axiom of self-belonging - a person's ownership of his own body. Based on the belief that a person himself must dispose of his life and property and has the right to independently decide how to live, provided that he recognizes the same right for other people, libertarians defend the widest possible individual rights and demand that the role of the state be reduced to the required minimum - protection of the life and property of citizens.
