ITEM OVERVIEW
The State is neither an inevitable, nor natural, phenomenon, but the creation of despots. Its history is a history of power, wealth, and tyranny. The immortality of the State is the greatest myth of our society. Anthropologist Harold Barclay explains how a powerful elite has hijacked control of society. Through control of agriculture, warfare, trade, labor, and other resources the State has seized complete power. Do we really need the State, or should we organize society ourselves?
