Merchant, soldier, sage : a new history of power
Priestland, David2013
Books
'Merchant, Soldier, Sage' proposes a radical new approach to how we see our world, and who runs it, in the vein of Francis Fukuyama's 'The End of History'. David Priestland argues for the predominance in any society of one of three broad value systems - that of the merchant, the soldier and the sage.
