二十世纪中叶,学者们一致认为,老子这个人的历史性是值得怀疑的,《道德经》是“多人汇编的道教语录”。对于老子的最早的记载存在于公元前1世纪史学家司马迁的《史记》。一方面,有人认为老子是公元前6或者5史记和孔子同时代的人。他姓李,名字叫做耳或聃。他是朝廷档案馆的官员,在去世之前分两部分写了一本书。另一方面,老子是不同于孔子的另外一个人,并且被称为老莱子,写了一本包含15部分的书。此外,他是宫廷占星家老聃,生活在公元前4史记的秦朝咸阳。迄今为止发现的最古老的《道德经》的文字是《郭店楚简》中的一部分。这些内容记录在竹简上,可以追溯到公元前4世纪后期。
 +
 +
根据记载,老子是一位学者,曾为周朝的档案管理员。据记载,这使他能够广泛接触黄帝的作品和其他当时的经典作品。在这些故事中,老子从未开设过正规学校,但仍然吸引了大批学生和忠实的徒弟。讲述他与孔子相遇的故事有很多,最著名的是《庄子》。
 +
老子有时被认为来自楚国的朱人村。在老子结婚的地方,据说他有一个儿子,名叫宗,后来成了一名著名的战士。关于宗的故事中,他打败了很多敌人,获得了战争的胜利,然后抛弃了敌人的尸体,被秃鹫吃掉。老子在周游和讲学的路上正好来到了现场,并被发现是宗的父亲。宗从小就与老子分开。老子教导儿子,对于被打败的敌人需要给予尊重,对死者的不尊重会使他的敌人报复。宗对此非常认同,并且下令让士兵埋葬敌人的尸体。并且为双方的死者举行葬礼哀悼,从而实现了持久的和平。

李氏家族可以追溯到老子,包括唐朝的皇帝。这个家族被成为陇西李氏。根据辛普森的观点,尽管其中的许多血统都让人怀疑,但是这证明了老子对于中国文化的影响。

在司马迁记录的第三个故事中,老子对于在成周(翻译者注:是洛阳的旧称)的生活感到厌倦,并且察觉到王朝的衰落。80岁那年,他大胆的跑到西部去隐居,生活在动荡不安的边疆。在西部,他被守卫尹喜认出来。哨兵要求老子为了国家的利益着想而留下他的智慧,然后才允许他离开。老子写的文字被称为《道德经》,尽管该文字的当前版本包括以后的内容。在这个故事的其他版本中,守卫被作品打动了,以至于他成为了老子的徒弟并与老子一起离开。在其他版本中,老子最后到达印度,成为了释加牟尼的老师。也有人认为他是佛陀本人。
    +
在七世纪的作品《三洞珠囊》中描述了老子和尹喜之间的关系。老子到达了西部边疆时假装自己是农民。被尹喜认了出来,尹喜要求师从老子。老子对于被认出感到不满,要求尹喜解释其拜师的原因。尹喜表达了自己追寻道的强烈愿望,并且解释说,他长期的占星学的研究让他认识到老子的方法。尹喜被老子收为弟子。这被认为是道教大师和弟子之间互动的典范,反映了一个求道者在被接受之前必须经历的考验。一个追随者应该证明自己的决心和才能,清楚的表达自己的愿望,表明自己在实现道的道路上已经取得了进步。
   −
In the mid-twentieth century, a consensus emerged among scholars that the historicity of the person known as Laozi is doubtful and that the Tao Te Ching was "a compilation of Taoist sayings by many hands".
+
《三洞珠囊》的故事延续了一个追随者想要的追求。就像很多其他的教义一样,老子在传授《道德经》时,尹喜接受了很多戒律。而这些戒律只是初步的一个任务,尹喜还需要很多的修行来完善他的道,所以老子给了他三年时间来完善他的“道”。尹喜全身心的投入到道的学习当中,在三年时间过后,尹喜再次表现出决心和完全的信任,向市场发出了一只败家子作为商定的标志。最终,他再次与老子见面,老子宣布阴天仙人的名字被列在天上,并号召天上大游行,将尹喜穿上仙人的外衣。故事中,老子赋予尹喜许多头衔,并带他踏上了整个宇宙的旅程,甚至进入了九个天堂。经过这段奇妙的旅程,这两个圣人进入野蛮人的西部。训练时期,团聚和旅行代表着中世纪道教中最高的宗教等级,即“三洞的感受者”。在这个传说中,老子是完美的道家大师,尹喜是理想的道家学生。老子被呈现为道的世俗化身,传授道给人们,让人解脱获得救赎。尹喜则遵循准备,测试,培训和培训的正式顺序。

个洞穴的珍珠袋延续了追随者的追求。老子转传《道德经》时,银溪受命,以及其他教义和经文,就像道教信徒在受命时接受许多方法,教义和经典一样。这只是最初的圣职,殷熙仍然需要额外的时间来完善他的美德,因此老子给了他三年来完善他的道。银溪全职奉献生活。约定的时间过后,银溪再次表现出决心和完全的信任,向市场发出了一只败家子作为商定的标志。最终,他再次与老子见面,老子宣布阴天仙人的名字被列在天上,并号召天上大游行,将阴溪穿上仙人的外衣。故事继续说,老子赋予银溪许多头衔,并带他踏上了整个宇宙的旅程,甚至进入了九个天堂。经过这段奇妙的旅程,这两个圣人进入野蛮人的西部。训练时期,团聚和旅行代表着中世纪道教中最高的宗教等级,即“三个洞穴的感受者”。在这个传说中,老子是完美的道家大师,银溪是理想的道家学生。老子被呈现为陶行世化身为人类的救赎而传授他的教their。银溪遵循准备,测试,培训和培训的正式顺序。

The earliest certain reference to the present figure of Laozi is found in the 1st‑century&nbsp;BC Records of the Grand Historian collected by the historian Sima Qian from earlier accounts. In one account, Laozi was said to be a contemporary of Confucius during the 6th or 5th&nbsp;century&nbsp;BC. His surname was Li and his personal name was Er or Dan. He was an official in the imperial archives and wrote a book in two parts before departing to the west. In another, Laozi was a different contemporary of Confucius titled Lao Laizi }})}} and wrote a book in 15 parts. In a third, he was the court astrologer Lao Dan who lived during the 4th century&nbsp;BC reign of Duke Xian of the Qin Dynasty. The oldest text of the Tao Te Ching so far recovered was part of the Guodian Chu Slips. It was written on bamboo slips, and dates to the late 4th&nbsp;century&nbsp;BC.
+
自汉代以来,老子的故事就带有强烈的宗教色彩。随着道教的生根发芽,老子被当作神来崇拜。人们认为老子是道的启示者,这导致了天师道的形成,天师道是第一个有组织的宗教教派。在后来成熟的道家传统中,老子逐渐被视为道的化身。据说他在整个历史中经历了无数的“转变” ,并以各种各样的化身形象来启蒙求道的信徒。宗教道教经常认为,“老子”在写完《道德经》之后并没有消失,而是一生都在游历和揭示道。
   −
史学家司马迁从早期记载中搜集到的公元前1世纪的《史记》 ,是对现存老子形象最早的确定参考。有一种说法认为,老子是公元前6或5世纪与孔子同时代的人。他姓李,个人名字叫二旦。他是皇家档案馆的一名官员,在去西方之前写了一本分为两部分的书。在另一篇文章中,《老子》是孔子的另一个同时代的作品,书名为《老来子》}}} ,分15部分写成。第三个,他是宫廷占星家老丹,生活在公元前4世纪的秦朝西安公爵统治时期。到目前为止发现的最古老的道德经文本是郭店楚简的一部分。它写在竹简上,可以追溯到公元前4世纪晚期。
+
道家神话中,老子是在他母亲凝视一颗流星的时候怀上的。据说,他在母亲的子宫里待了62年,然后出生了,生下老子时他的母亲正靠在一棵李子树上。据说老子长成了一个成年人后,满脸灰白的胡须,长长的耳垂,既象征着智慧,又象征着长寿。还有一些神话传说,老子是伏羲的化身,是伏羲13次重生的最后一次,他活了九百九十年,用他的一生旅行来揭示道。

According to traditional accounts, Laozi was a scholar who worked as the Keeper of the Archives for the royal court of Zhou. This reportedly allowed him broad access to the works of the Yellow Emperor and other classics of the time. The stories assert that Laozi never opened a formal school but nonetheless attracted a large number of students and loyal disciples. There are many variations of a story retelling his encounter with Confucius, most famously in the Zhuangzi.

The story tells of Zong the Warrior who defeats an enemy and triumphs, and then abandons the corpses of the enemy soldiers to be eaten by vultures. By coincidence Laozi, traveling and teaching the way of the Tao, comes on the scene and is revealed to be the father of Zong, from whom he was separated in childhood. Laozi tells his son that it is better to treat respectfully a beaten enemy, and that the disrespect to their dead would cause his foes to seek revenge. Convinced, Zong orders his soldiers to bury the enemy dead. Funeral mourning is held for the dead of both parties and a lasting peace is made.

The third story in Sima Qian states that Laozi grew weary of the moral decay of life in Chengzhou and noted the kingdom's decline. He ventured west to live as a hermit in the unsettled frontier at the age of 80. At the western gate of the city (or kingdom), he was recognized by the guard Yinxi. The sentry asked the old master to record his wisdom for the good of the country before he would be permitted to pass. The text Laozi wrote was said to be the Tao Te Ching, although the present version of the text includes additions from later periods. In some versions of the tale, the sentry was so touched by the work that he became a disciple and left with Laozi, never to be seen again. In others, the "Old Master" journeyed all the way to India and was the teacher of Siddartha Gautama, the Buddha. Others say he was the Buddha himself.

In others, the "Old Master" journeyed all the way to India and was the teacher of Siddartha Gautama, the Buddha. Others say he was the Buddha himself.

司马迁的第三个故事说,老子厌倦了 Chengzhou 生活的道德沦丧,注意到了王国的衰落。80岁那年,他大胆到西部去隐居,生活在这片动荡不安的边疆。在城门(或王国)西边,他被守卫银溪认出来了。哨兵要求老主人为了国家的利益记录下他的智慧,然后才允许他通过。老子所写的文字据说是《道德经》 ,尽管目前版本的文字包含了后来版本的补充。在一些版本的故事,哨兵是如此感动的工作,他成为一个门徒和老子离开,再也没有看到。在另一些故事中,“大师”一路旅行到了印度,成为了 Siddartha Gautama 的导师,佛陀。也有人说他就是佛陀本人。

A seventh-century work, the Sandong Zhunang ("Pearly Bag of the Three Caverns"), embellished the relationship between Laozi and Yinxi. Laozi pretended to be a farmer when reaching the western gate, but was recognized by Yinxi, who asked to be taught by the great master. Laozi was not satisfied by simply being noticed by the guard and demanded an explanation. Yinxi expressed his deep desire to find the Tao and explained that his long study of astrology allowed him to recognize Laozi's approach. Yinxi was accepted by Laozi as a disciple. This is considered an exemplary interaction between Taoist master and disciple, reflecting the testing a seeker must undergo before being accepted. A would-be adherent is expected to prove his determination and talent, clearly expressing his wishes and showing that he had made progress on his own towards realizing the Tao.

七世纪的《三洞珠囊》 ,点缀了老子与 Yinxi 的关系。老子到了西门,假装是农民,但是被殷熙认出来了,殷熙要求师从大师。老子不满足于仅仅被警卫注意到,要求解释。殷熙表达了寻找道的强烈愿望,并解释说,他长期的占星学研究使他认识到老子的方法。殷熙被老子收为弟子。这被认为是道教大师和弟子之间的典范互动,反映了一个求道者在被接受之前必须经历的考验。一个追随者应该证明自己的决心和才能,清楚地表达自己的愿望,表明自己在实现道的道路上已经取得了进步。

The Pearly Bag of the Three Caverns continues the parallel of an adherent's quest. Yinxi received his ordination when Laozi transmitted the Tao Te Ching, along with other texts and precepts, just as Taoist adherents receive a number of methods, teachings and scriptures at ordination. This is only an initial ordination and Yinxi still needed an additional period to perfect his virtue, thus Laozi gave him three years to perfect his Tao. Yinxi gave himself over to a full-time devotional life. After the appointed time, Yinxi again demonstrates determination and perfect trust, sending out a black sheep to market as the agreed sign. He eventually meets again with Laozi, who announces that Yinxi's immortal name is listed in the heavens and calls down a heavenly procession to clothe Yinxi in the garb of immortals. The story continues that Laozi bestowed a number of titles upon Yinxi and took him on a journey throughout the universe, even into the nine heavens. After this fantastic journey, the two sages set out to western lands of the barbarians. The training period, reuniting and travels represent the attainment of the highest religious rank in medieval Taoism called "Preceptor of the Three Caverns". In this legend, Laozi is the perfect Taoist master and Yinxi is the ideal Taoist student. Laozi is presented as the Tao personified, giving his teaching to humanity for their salvation. Yinxi follows the formal sequence of preparation, testing, training and attainment.

三个洞穴的珍珠袋延续了一个追随者的追求的平行。老子传授《道德经》、其他经典和戒律时,阴熙接受了他的授职,正如道教信徒在授职时接受了许多方法、教导和经典一样。这只是一个初步的任命,阴熙还需要一段时间来完善他的德行,所以老子给了他三年的时间来完善他的道。银禧把自己奉献给了全职的奉献生活。过了约定的时间,银禧再次展示了决心和完美的信任,送出一只害群之马作为约定的标志进入市场。他最终再次与老子会面,老子宣布银溪的不朽名字被列入天堂,并召唤一支天上的队伍给银溪披上神仙的外衣。故事继续,老子赋予银禧多个头衔,带着他走遍宇宙,甚至进入九天。经过这次奇妙的旅程,两位圣人出发前往西方的野蛮人的土地。这一时期的训练、团聚和游历,代表了中世纪道教最高的宗教等级,被称为“三洞导师”。在这个传说中,老子是完美的道教大师,Yinxi 是理想的道教徒。老子以“道”的形象出现,把自己的教诲赋予人性,以拯救人性。印喜遵循正式的准备、测试、训练和学习的顺序。

The story of Laozi has taken on strong religious overtones since the Han dynasty. As Taoism took root, Laozi was worshipped as a god. Belief in the revelation of the Tao from the divine Laozi resulted in the formation of the Way of the Celestial Masters, the first organized religious Taoist sect. In later mature Taoist tradition, Laozi came to be seen as a personification of the Tao. He is said to have undergone numerous "transformations" and taken on various guises in various incarnations throughout history to initiate the faithful in the Way. Religious Taoism often holds that the "Old Master" did not disappear after writing the Tao Te Ching but rather spent his life traveling and revealing the Tao. Other myths state that he was reborn 13 times after his first life during the days of Fuxi. In his last incarnation as Laozi, he lived nine hundred and ninety years and spent his life traveling to reveal the Tao.

自汉代以来,老子的故事就带有强烈的宗教色彩。随着道教的生根发芽,老子被当作神来崇拜。信仰神圣的老子启示了道,导致了天师道的形成,第一个有组织的宗教教派。在后来成熟的道家传统中,老子逐渐被视为道的化身。据说他在整个历史中经历了无数的“转变” ,并以各种各样的化身形象来启蒙道路上的信徒。宗教道教经常认为,“大师”在写完《道德经》之后并没有消失,而是一生都在游历和揭示道。其他的神话传说说他在伏羲时期的第一次生命之后重生了13次。在他作为老子的最后一次化身中,他活了九百九十年,用他的一生旅行来揭示道。

Laozi is traditionally regarded as the author of the Tao Te Ching (Daodejing), though the identity of its author(s) or compiler(s) has been debated throughout history. It is one of the most significant treatises in Chinese cosmogony. As with most other ancient Chinese philosophers, Laozi often explains his ideas by way of paradox, analogy, appropriation of ancient sayings, repetition, symmetry, rhyme, and rhythm. In fact, the whole book can be read as an analogy – the ruler is the awareness, or self, in meditation and the myriad creatures or empire is the experience of the body, senses and desires.

The Tao Te Ching, often called simply Laozi after its reputed author, describes the Dao (or Tao) as the source and ideal of all existence: it is unseen, but not transcendent, immensely powerful yet supremely humble, being the root of all things. People have desires and free will (and thus are able to alter their own nature). Many act "unnaturally", upsetting the natural balance of the Tao. The Tao Te Ching intends to lead students to a "return" to their natural state, in harmony with Tao.<!-- ref supports whole of paragraph to this point --> Language and conventional wisdom are critically assessed.

Livia Kohn provides an example of how Laozi encouraged a change in approach, or return to "nature", rather than action. Technology may bring about a false sense of progress. The answer provided by Laozi is not the rejection of technology, but instead seeking the calm state of wu wei, free from desires. This relates to many statements by Laozi encouraging rulers to keep their people in "ignorance", or "simple-minded". Some scholars insist this explanation ignores the religious context, and others question it as an apologetic of the philosophical coherence of the text. It would not be unusual political advice if Laozi literally intended to tell rulers to keep their people ignorant. However, some terms in the text, such as "valley spirit" (gushen) and "soul" (po), bear a metaphysical context and cannot be easily reconciled with a purely ethical reading of the work.

利维亚 · 科恩提供了一个例子,说明老子是如何鼓励人们改变做法,或是回归“自然” ,而不是采取行动的。技术可能带来错误的进步感。老子给出的答案不是拒绝技术,而是寻求无为的平静状态,摆脱欲望。这与老子的许多言论有关,老子鼓励统治者让他们的人民“无知” ,或“头脑简单”。一些学者坚持认为这种解释忽略了宗教语境,另一些学者则质疑这种解释是对文本哲学连贯性的辩护。如果老子真的打算告诉统治者让他们的人民保持无知,这并不是不寻常的政治建议。然而,文本中的“谷神”(谷神)、“灵魂”(po)等术语,具有形而上的语境,与对作品的纯伦理解读不可调和。

It is a concept used to explain ziran (自然), or harmony with the Tao. It includes the concepts that value distinctions are ideological and seeing ambition of all sorts as originating from the same source. Laozi used the term broadly with simplicity and humility as key virtues, often in contrast to selfish action. On a political level, it means avoiding such circumstances as war, harsh laws and heavy taxes. Some Taoists see a connection between wu wei and esoteric practices, such as zuowang "sitting in oblivion" (emptying the mind of bodily awareness and thought) found in the Zhuangzi.

Laozi was a proponent of limited government. Left-libertarians in particular have been influenced by Laozi – in his 1937 book Nationalism and Culture, the anarcho-syndicalist writer and activist Rudolf Rocker praised Laozi's "gentle wisdom" and understanding of the opposition between political power and the cultural activities of the people and community. In his 1910 article for the Encyclopædia Britannica, Peter Kropotkin also noted that Laozi was among the earliest proponents of essentially anarchist concepts. More recently, anarchists such as John P. Clark and Ursula K. Le Guin have written about the conjunction between anarchism and Taoism in various ways, highlighting the teachings of Laozi in particular. In her rendition of the Tao Te Ching, Le Guin writes that Laozi "does not see political power as magic. He sees rightful power as earned and wrongful power as usurped... He sees sacrifice of self or others as a corruption of power, and power as available to anyone who follows the Way. No wonder anarchists and Taoists make good friends."

老子是有限政府的倡导者。无政府工团主义作家、活动家鲁道夫 · 洛克在其1937年出版的《民族主义与文化》一书中,对老子的“温和智慧”以及对政治权力与人民和社区文化活动对立的理解进行了高度评价。在他1910年发表在《大英百科全书的文章中,Peter Kropotkin 也指出老子是最早的无政府主义概念的支持者之一。最近,像 John p. Clark 和厄休拉·勒吉恩这样的无政府主义者以不同的方式写了关于无政府主义和道教之间联系的文章,特别强调了老子的教义。在《道德经》的演绎中,勒奎恩写道,老子“并不把政治权力视为魔法。他认为合法的权力是挣来的,不正当的权力被篡夺了... ..。他认为自我或他人的牺牲是权力的堕落,而权力对于任何遵循道路的人都是可得的。难怪无政府主义者和道教徒会成为好朋友。”

无为是“道德经”的核心概念。“无为”的概念是多方面的,甚至在英语翻译中也体现在单词的多种含义上。在文学意义上,它可能意味着“不做任何事情”,“不强迫”,“不行动”,“虚无”,“自发行动”和“随时间流逝”。无为是一个概念,用于解释人与自然或与道的和谐。它包括价值区分是意识形态的概念,并将各种野心都源于同一来源。老子广泛地以简单和谦卑为主要美德来使用这个词,这常常与自私的行为形成对比。从政治角度讲,这意味着避免战争,苛刻的法律和重税之类的情况。一些道教徒认为无为与深奥的实践之间存在联系,例如在庄子中发现的坐忘(清空身体意识和思想)。

Laozi is traditionally regarded as the founder of Taoism, intimately connected with the ''Tao Te Ching'' and "primordial" (or "original") Taoism. Popular ("religious") Taoism typically presents the [[Jade Emperor]] as the official head [[deity]].

The right-libertarian economist Murray Rothbard suggested that Laozi was the first libertarian, likening Laozi's ideas on government to Friedrich Hayek's theory of spontaneous order. James A. Dorn agreed, writing that Laozi, like many 18th-century liberals, "argued that minimizing the role of government and letting individuals develop spontaneously would best achieve social and economic harmony." Similarly, the Cato Institute's David Boaz includes passages from the Tao Te Ching in his 1997 book The Libertarian Reader. Philosopher Roderick Long, however, argues that libertarian themes in Taoist thought are actually borrowed from earlier Confucian writers.

Laozi was a proponent of limited government.<ref>{{Harvtxt|Dorn|2008|pp=282–283}}</ref> [[Left-libertarianism|Left-libertarians]] in particular have been influenced by Laozi – in his 1937 book ''[[Nationalism and Culture]]'', the [[anarcho-syndicalism|anarcho-syndicalist]] writer and activist [[Rudolf Rocker]] praised Laozi's "gentle wisdom" and understanding of the opposition between political power and the cultural activities of the people and community.<ref>{{Harvtxt|Rocker|1997|pp=256, 82}}</ref> In his 1910 article for the ''Encyclopædia Britannica'', [[Peter Kropotkin]] also noted that Laozi was among the earliest proponents of essentially [[Anarchism|anarchist]] concepts.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://dwardmac.pitzer.edu/anarchist_archives/kropotkin/britanniaanarchy.html |title=Britannica: Anarchism |publisher=Dwardmac.pitzer.edu |accessdate=14 November 2011}}</ref> More recently, anarchists such as John P. Clark and [[Ursula K. Le Guin]] have written about the conjunction between anarchism and Taoism in various ways, highlighting the teachings of Laozi in particular.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://raforum.info/spip.php?article4488&lang=fr|author=Clark, John P.|title=Master Lao and the Anarchist Prince|access-date=1 November 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171020015752/https://raforum.info/spip.php?article4488&lang=fr|archive-date=20 October 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> In her rendition of the Tao Te Ching, Le Guin writes that Laozi "does not see political power as magic. He sees rightful power as earned and wrongful power as usurped... He sees sacrifice of self or others as a corruption of power, and power as available to anyone who follows the Way. No wonder anarchists and Taoists make good friends."<ref>{{Harvtxt|Le Guin|2009|p=20}}</ref>

The [[Right-libertarianism|right-libertarian]] economist [[Murray Rothbard]] suggested that Laozi was the first [[Libertarianism|libertarian]],<ref>Rothbard, Murray (2005). Excerpt from "Concepts of the Role of Intellectuals in Social Change Toward Laissez Faire", ''The Journal of Libertarian Studies'', Vol. IX, No. 2 (Fall 1990) at [https://mises.org/daily/1967 mises.org]</ref> likening Laozi's ideas on government to [[Friedrich Hayek]]'s theory of [[spontaneous order]].<ref>Rothbard, Murray (2005). "The Ancient Chinese Libertarian Tradition", ''Mises Daily'', (5 December 2005) (original source unknown) at [https://mises.org/daily/1967 mises.org]</ref> James A. Dorn agreed, writing that Laozi, like many 18th-century liberals, "argued that minimizing the role of government and letting individuals develop spontaneously would best achieve social and economic harmony."<ref>{{Harvtxt|Dorn|2008}}</ref> Similarly, the [[Cato Institute]]'s [[David Boaz]] includes passages from the ''Tao Te Ching''' in his 1997 book ''The Libertarian Reader''.<ref>{{Harvtxt|Boaz|1997}}</ref> Philosopher [[Roderick Long]], however, argues that libertarian themes in Taoist thought are actually borrowed from earlier [[Confucian]] writers.<ref>{{Harvtxt|Long|2003}}</ref>

老子是无政府主义的倡导者。左派自由主义者尤其受到老子的影响——无政府工团主义作家和活动家Rudolf Rocker在他1937年出版的《Nationalism and Culture》一书中赞扬了老子的“温和智慧”以及对政治权力与人民和社区的文化活动之间的对立的理解。在1910年发表在《大英百科全书》的文章中,Peter Kropotkin还指出,老子本质上是无政府主义概念的最早支持者之一。近年来,无政府主义者如 John p. Clark 和Ursula K. Le Guin 以不同的方式写了关于无政府主义和道教之间的联系的文章,特别强调了老子的教义。在讲述《道德经》时,Le Guin 写道,老子“并不把政治权力视为无限制的权利。他认为合法的权力是挣来的,错误的权力被篡夺了... ... 他认为自我牺牲或他人牺牲是权力的堕落,权力对任何遵循道路的人都是有效的。所以无政府主义者和道教徒会成为好朋友。”

右翼自由主义经济学家Murray Rothbard认为老子是第一个自由主义者,他把老子的政府观点比作Friedrich Hayek的自发秩序理论。James A. Dorn对此表示赞同,他在书中写道,老子和许多18世纪的自由主义者一样,“认为最小化政府的作用,让个人自发发展,才是实现社会和经济和谐的最佳途径。”同样,Cato研究所的David Boaz在他1997年出版的《The Libertarian Reader》一书中也引用了《道德经》中的一些段落。然而,哲学家Roderick Long认为,道家思想中的自由意志主义主题实际上是从早期的儒家作家那里借鉴来的。
