He suggests that state-owned production systems will tend the same way, an observation which turned out to be prescient for the later Communist (= "collectivist") governments in Europe and Asia. Belloc (a Christian) points to the Church-dominated Middle Ages as an ideal time for a balance of freedom and "distributive" ownership, where the means of production were more evenly spread among the populace. The work is clearly argued and has much relevance today, since we are experiencing the late stages of the 19th century capitalist system Belloc decried. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
THE SERVILE STATE has endured as his most important political work. The effect of socialist doctrine on capitalist society, Belloc wrote, is to produce a third thing different from either -- the servile state, today commonly called the welfare state. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
