Il fatto che la dottrina rothbardiana abbia la pretesa di fondare poteri di comando e obblighi unilaterali su terzi (però, non conoscendo la nozione di stato di necessità, impedisce a una persona che sta affogando di impossessarsi di una scialuppa altrui per salvarsi, quando lo stato di necessità, in nome del principio di inesigibilità, risolve di forza tutti i diritti).

preponderantly (dissolves all rights/entitlements... etc...)
in other words, not by force, that may be read as applying a coercive act, but simply by preponderance of the state of necessity over other rights, such as property rights ... but not over ALL other rights, such as the right to life, personal freedom, etc.

by force
it means by force, so it's saying that a state of necessity dissolves all rights (of others) by force. It is stronger than all other rights. The example says that if you are drowning your right to get into a boat that isn't your property supercedes the owner's right to their private property and sole use of that boat at that particular moment.
