2.0 out of 5 stars A blow to responsible governments everywhere, May 3, 2000
This review is from: Balance of Freedom: Political Economy, Law and Learning (World Social Systems. Liberal Democratic Societies) (Paperback)
A pessemist work which focuses in the most complicated legal tangles possible in a democracy, Michener's biased essay collection essentially endorses totalitarian orders. With essay after carefully chosen essay blasting the corruption and red tape associated with some young democracies, it may as well be communist propaganda. I will keep this one safely at the back of my library, well out of view.
