Top 5 Libertarian Themes in Star Wars

 2. The Non-Aggression Principal

Yoda

The Jedi had a very libertarian approach to weapons, including the force. They were by no means pacifists, as they would use defensive force to protect those they cared about and to preserve the Republic. In fact, one of the tenants of the Jedi Code is:

“A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for aggression or personal gain.”

One can argue that learning how to use the force for knowledge is personal gain, but the Jedi more than likely meant to not use the force for personal gain if it hurts others. Again, the words “never for aggression” means not to initiate force against anyone acting peacefully. This ties in perfectly with the non-aggression principle.
