Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the theoretical relationship between producers and consumers, and their shared relationship with the state. It explores the distinctions between producers and non-producers, arguing that the latter are not necessarily protected in a system where the former have economic power, but that they may be in fact more vulnerable to being exploited by proteering societies whose sole focus is shareholder profit. Moreover, the author posits that this system of exploitation may spread to guilds under certain circumstances. State sovereignty, the author argues, should be maintained in order to protect consumers from these practices. The author concludes by emphasizing the critical importance of securing workers' well-being in order to achieve a just and equitable society.
