Sobre IBD

The People’s Sovereignty Versus Trustocracy is a book written by George Henry Shibley in 1904. The book discusses the concept of democracy and how it is being threatened by the rise of trustocracy, a system where power is concentrated in the hands of a few large corporations and trusts. Shibley argues that trustocracy is eroding the principles of democracy, as it allows these powerful entities to influence politics and shape policies in their favor. He also explores the role of the people in maintaining their sovereignty and fighting against the dominance of trustocracy. The book is a critique of the Gilded Age, a period in American history marked by rapid industrialization and the rise of big business. Shibley’s work remains relevant today, as the debate over the influence of corporate power on democracy continues to be a pressing issue.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
