View Rights PortalWie selbstverständlich gehen wir davon aus, dass die neolithische Revolution, in deren Verlauf Nomaden zu Ackerbauern und Viehzüchtern wurden, ein bedeutender zivilisatorischer Fortschritt war. James C. Scott entwickelt in seinem provokanten Buch eine ganz andere These: Die ersten Staaten entstanden aus der Kontrolle über die Reproduktion und errichteten ein hartes Regime der Domestizierung und Unterwerfung, das Epidemien, Ungleichheiten und Kriege mit sich brachte. Einzig die »Barbaren« – die heimlichen Helden dieses Buches – haben sich der Sesshaftigkeit sowie den neuen Besteuerungssystemen verweigert und sich damit gegen die Mühlen der Zivilisation gestemmt.
