    The ability of a government to suppress and control internal agitation while at the same time appearing gentile and appeasing is a hallmark of a strong government. The middle ground between not budging to demands, and giving too much and collapsing, is a very difficult line to walk. Far too often the national government steps in, and because they need to appear strong and in control, they squash the uprising and the results are often much more violent and destructive than they would have been if…

    We return to the red planet of Duna - a long time favorite destination for players of KSP. Government In thinking of government, one should consider who settles Duna. Corporations would be much more interested in developing the Mun, which has a stronger business case. As a result, some ambitious Kerbin governments, or a wealthy Elon Kerman might try their hand at colonizing Duna. With a government effort, I could imagine the settlement government resembling the colonizing government. On the…

There are so many levels: federal, state, local and then sublevels within each level. Government and the laws they create and enforce usually happens without us thinking too much about it; pay your taxes, obey the speed limit, don’t kill other people. Do these basic generic tasks and we can believe our lives are controlled by our own actions. Most of us know governments…

    Chapter 7 of Anarchy, State, and Utopia begins with introducing a theory of distributive justice called “the entitlement theory”. In a just world, one is entitled to one’s holdings if the holdings are either the original acquisition or there is a transfer of holdings. No one is entitled to their holdings other than by those two principles. However, because we do not live in a just world, Nozick incorporates a third principle: the rectification of injustice. This theory was compelling throughout…
