Human nature does not have any inherent respect for property. Humans, like all other creatures, would as soon from others take property/resource they desire as elsewhere and otherwise obtain substantively the same property/resource. Respect for property/resource, or more accurately, respect for the fact that such property/resources currently belong to someone other than oneself, is borne of codified jurisprudence and exigencies of its enforcement. not of nature, and codified jurisprudence is a human construct, not an aspect of nature, be it human, bovine, canine, or any other.
.Exactly - libertarian thought does not advocate anarchy. It is far closer to the vision of the framers than socialism
??? Who, other than you, was talking about anarchy? What point is there to introducing anything have to do with anarchy when the discussion topic is libertarianism rather than a comparison of libertarianism with anarchy? Nobody who knows what they are talking confuses libertarianism with anarchy.
Because why write an essay when a sentence will do? I was being generous in interpretation, economical of word.
Jurisprudence is the theory, or study of law - there is no enforcement of a theory, regardless of exigencies.
But Libertarians do believe in codified law, not anarchy. Or so I've been told.
