Introduce how these questions will be responded to.
Right-libertarianism aims to maximise rights whereby private property-rights, market distribution of natural resources and private property are strongly supported. The alternative is left-libertarianism, here rights are distributed so that while personal-property is fully respected, it is illegitimate to hold to claim private ownership of natural resources to the detriment of others. Both libertarian views hold self-ownership in both civil and economic spheres strongly.

Thesis
Whichever libertarian view that maximises aggregate individual’s rights to their benefit for the benefit of society should be considered most attractive.

Change the introduction if you think it’s necessary.
