About Crisis and Leviathan: Critical Episodes in the Growth of American Government (A Pacific Research Institute for Public Policy Book)
In Crisis and Leviathan, economist Robert Higgs traces how American government expanded dramatically during moments of national emergency—wars, depressions, and crises—and why that growth rarely receded afterward. Through vivid historical episodes, he reveals the recurring pattern by which fear and urgency justify centralized power, reshaping economic and political life long after the crisis fades.
