Excerpt from Man or the State? A Group of Essays by Famous Writers
If, then, the State cannot at: once be dispensed with, the alternative is reform, revision, melioration of the State idea. Here we shall at least be sure of a multitude of counsellors, each with his favorite State-theory or State-pattern to urge for adoption. It would be well to dismiss at the start those slightly anachronistic physicians who invariably prescribe more centralization as a cure for the ailments of our over centralized State. Their ideal is pre - war Prussia, though they will not often admit it. But of Prussia as a working model of State-theory we might say, as Talleyrand said of the English public school system, It is the best we have ever seen; and it is abominable. The earnest seeker for light will turn with far more of hope and interest to storm swept Russia. Out of the Soviet experiment, and out of the ideas of the Guild Socialists in England, is evolving what may well prove to be the State-norm of the immediate future or something very like it.

Man or the State? A Group of Essays by Famous Writers (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origins and historical evolution of the state, challenging its dominance in human affairs. The author argues that the state, far from being an essential or inevitable institution, is a relatively recent development that has emerged through processes of domination and coercion. Drawing on historical and anthropological evidence, the author traces the rise of the state from its roots in primitive societies to its development as a centralized power in the modern era. The book explores the consequences of this evolution, including the suppression of individual liberties and the rise of social inequality. Ultimately, the author calls for a re-evaluation of the role of the state and advocates for a return to more decentralized and participatory forms of governance.
