Charles Tilly Quotes

• Ir a la guerra aceleró el paso del gobierno indirecto al directo. Casi todos los Estados que hacen la guerra se encuentran con que no pueden pagar el esfuerzo con sus reservas acumuladas y sus ingresos corrientes. Casi todos los Estados que hacen la guerra piden prestado mucho dinero, suben los impuestos y confiscan los medios de combate -incluidos los hombres- a ciudadanos reacios que tienen otros usos para sus recursos.

Read, think, and learn.

(Sartine, who became lieutenant general de police in 1759, is supposed to have said to Louis XV, "Sire, when three people are chatting in the street one of them is surely my man.") Eighteenth-century police manuals like those of Colquhoun in England or Lemaire in France are no less than general treatises on the government's full repertoire of domestic regulation, coercion, and surveillance.
