May I suggest an overlooked political science textbook written in 1935?

The Von Mises Institute has it online in PDF format.

It was written principally for post grad political science types, so its not simple in it language. It more clearly defines all the “isms” as they apply to the difference between government and the State.

Do not let the title frighten you, it is NOT about “black helicopters” or anything at all of that nature.

Hit the link and read just of few of the endorsements by critical thinkers of that time.

The book nails Oh-bummer cleanly.

Nock is a pretty popular fellow around here, or at least he used to be.

Thanx, I’ve now added “Our Enemy the State” to Locke’s 2nd treatse on government, Adam Smith “theory of the moral sentiments” and “wealth of nations”, the “Federalist Papers”, the “Anti-Federalist Papers” and Herbert Spencer’s “Man Verses the State”.
