Michael Szonyi - The Art of Being Governed
Kennt das jemand? Wenn ja, lohnt es sich?
Zitat:
Families that had to provide a soldier for the army set up elaborate rules to ensure their obligation was fulfilled, and to provide incentives for the soldier not to desert his post. People in the system found ways to gain advantages for themselves and their families. For example, naval officers used the military’s protection to engage in the very piracy and smuggling they were supposed to suppress.
