- Weak keep the philosophical position is obscure, and while the title of the article is perhaps neologistic, the topic itself is notable given the influence of left-wing strands of Rothbard's thought to the broader left-libertarian and agorist movements and upon the political philosophy of figures like Roderick T. Long, Kevin A. Carson and Samuel Edward Konkin III. Skomorokh 01:26, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

- Delete, semi-academic WP:NEO with no Google Books or Google Scholar results. To the extent that there are reliable sources that identify a "left-wing Rothbardian perspective", that is something that merits perhaps a sentence or two in Murray Rothbard. At best, this is a fringe position held by a minority philosophy because the fringe feels the minority has joined the majority. Or something like that. --Dhartung | Talk 07:35, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete: A neologism is a neologism, and fails on that ground alone, quite aside of the lack of reliable sources. RGTraynor 15:15, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
