In this personal, and sometimes challenging, work the author argues that an idealised form of political government has been the goal of mankind since Plato himself. But political thinking has always been a theoretical exercise detached from reality. Little consideration was given to the fact that it is flawed humans who must implement these ideas.

Autorenporträt
Ernest Lamers, a Dutch national, read international economics and finance at the University of Tilburg (The Netherlands) and has a PhD in Economics. He left Holland in 1963 for an international career that took him successively to Ankara and Paris (O.E.C.D.), Washington (World Bank), London (City) and Luxemburg-Rome-Luxemburg (European Investment Bank) for some 25 years. He is now retired and has used his otium - cum dignitate, he hopes - to put his thoughts about a few political matters on paper.
