Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines how historical trends, especially the development and dissemination of knowledge within populations, have shaped the nature of governance. The author argues that government systems are fragile when they are not aligned with the knowledge and political consciousness of their people. This book traces the shifting balance of power between rulers and the people from medieval times to the late 18th century, and examines the rise of concepts such as freedom, equality, and the social contract in historical context. This book argues that the French Revolution was a culmination of societal changes that had been building for centuries, and its catastrophic violence was avoidable had the government been more responsive to these changes. The work concludes by arguing that effective government can only be built on an accurate understanding of the knowledge, concerns, and rights of the people.
