[Yousif Aldaas · Rating 3 out of 5]

موضوع الكتاب جميل و رائع لكن كون الكتاب قديم فمعظم الأمثلة التي ضربها الكاتب و الدراسات ليس ذات قيمة ، و كانت الدراسات على دول أفريقيا فقط في فترة قديمة لا تشابه الزمن الذي نعيشه الآن

Lots of examples.
Simple writing.
Detailed history.
Systematic.

1960'lı yıllarda yazılmasına rağmen, "ilkel" toplumlarda da siyasal kurum ve anlayışların olduğunu ortaya koymakta çok başarılı bir eserdir. İktidar ve toplum, İktidar ve din, İktidar ve ekonomi ilişkisi çok başarılı bir şekilde bölüm bölüm ele alınır.
