Synopsis
This book offers an articulate commentary on a widely held distaste for privilege. The author, a distinguished man of letters, examines the history of societies throughout ages and argues that we strive to live in a place where people reap what they sow. He presents the American Revolution as an attempt to eliminate arbitrary boundaries and introduce a system of government that works for all, regardless of rank or position. He further acknowledges that many revolutions that have taken place in the world since then have not always resulted in social and economic equality. The author instead suggests that in the course of history, revolutions often replaced old privileges with new ones. This book will appeal to readers interested in politics, history, and sociology, and it is sure to provoke thought about the nature of privilege and its impact on society.
