Regardless of whether such libertarians are right or wrong in their beliefs about private governance, this is completely inaccurate depiction of their views. Peter Stringham's book Private Governance: Creating Order in Economic and Social Life explores theoretical and empirical foundations for private governance and why it would not amount to sorting things out based on raw power.
The book received praise from Peter Thiel: "Stringham dispels state-worshipping fiction with historical fact to show how good governance has preceded Leviathan, ignores it when necessary, and can surpass it when it fails."
