Klosko, The Principle of Fairness and Political Obligations, new edition (Savage, MD: Rowman and Littlefield, 2004), Ch. 1.

Although granting the necessary assumptions defuses the most important objections to the principle of fairness, this does not mean that all other objections are also defused, although I believe they can be dealt with.

I will assume that, if it would be wrong for Smith not to contribute her share to collective rescue efforts, then she can justifiably be compelled to do so through coercive means. For discussion of some of the issues involved here, see Wellman

In addition, because the issues under discussion concern moral requirements, I will avoid complex questions concerning justification of coercion to enforce requirements to rescue. I will assume that, if it would be wrong for Smith not to contribute her share to collective rescue efforts, then she can justifiably be compelled to do so through coercive means. For discussion of some of the issues involved here, see Wellman, ‘Toward a Liberal Theory’, pp. 746–750.

Rothbard's suggestions are similarly improbable (For a New Liberty, also). Benson concedes the need for governmental defense (Enterprise of Law, p. 373).

Friedman characterizes defense as ‘the hard problem’; his suggestions are highly speculative (Machinery of Freedom, Ch. 34).
