Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a discussion on the best form of government. The author begins by describing how most political philosophy has taken the perfect or ideal state as the subject of government analysis. However, the author asserts that the viability of a government for a people depends on factors unique to that people and their circumstances. Therefore, proposing a universally applicable perfect state is a futile exercise. The author then goes on to present three distinct political viewpoints on the best form of government: monarchy, aristocracy, and democracy. Each is given a full hearing with its own sections laying out the benefits and drawbacks of each system. The author is careful to present these three perspectives as arguments made in good faith by intelligent, well-intentioned people, rather than straw men for easy refutation. Through this method, the author highlights the complexity of determining which form of government is best, and the book concludes by suggesting that the search for a single, perfect form of government may be misguided. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330844717_0
