The American Redoubt
Guns, Bunkers and Orchards on the New Conservative Christian Frontier
The American Redoubt is a formalized libertarian exit strategy coined by James Wesley, Rawles (comma intended) in 2011 in a blog post on his prolific “liberty minded” site SurvivalBlog.com.
Retreating to the Redoubt is just the first step in a lifetime of preparations for TEOTWAWKI. Paramount to these preparations is creating a long-term, self-sufficient safe haven in the event of societal collapse that sends droves of migrants toward the Redoubt.
Public space in the American Redoubt is therefore less related to property ownership, and directly related to space for survivalist practices. Though every person who migrates to the Redoubt has a different worst case scenario, the spatial solutions that they put into their preparation practices are similar: gun ranges, bunkers, timber plots, orchards and vegetable plots, fences, frequent Reformed religious services. All meant to protect themselves and their families at TEOTWAWKI.
