Sinopsis
Baselines advances a disciplined argument about the proper limits of government in an age of unlimited demand. Modern societies, the book contends, do not fracture because citizens differ, but because institutions abandon restraint—substituting the protection of life for the management of preference, identity, and feeling. Stability erodes not from insufficient compassion, but from excess ambition.
The book establishes the governing distinction that five needs qualify as universal: sustainability, food, shelter, safety, and health. Each sustains life directly. Each applies to everyone without exception. Each admits measurement, limitation, and impartial delivery. Beyond that boundary lies a vast terrain of wants—meaningful and real, yet inherently subjective and ungovernable without preference. When states confuse the two, fairness dissolves and conflict multiplies.
Survival belongs to the state. Flourishing belongs to people. Societies endure when institutions remember the difference.
