[2] Molnar studied economics at the University of Sydney and switched to philosophy in his final year, under the Australian realist philosopher John Anderson.
[4] Along with philosophers David J. Ivison, Roelof Smilde, Darcy Waters and Jim Baker, Molnar was a contributor to the libertarian Broadsheet.
While living in a libertarian-style commune in Leeds, according to contemporary activist Max Farrar, Molnar became a member of the Marxist movement Big Flame.
He was in email contact with Stephen Mumford at the University of Nottingham, who acted as archivist of his work, edited the book and saw it through to publication in 2003 under the title Powers: A Study in Metaphysics,[2] with a foreword by David Armstrong.
"[7] In 2019 a collection of 19 personal memoirs was published under the title George Molnar: Politics and Passions of a Sydney Philosopher,[1] collated and edited by his partner of 20 years Carlotta McIntosh.
