I love teaching that text along with Mumford on authoritarian vs democratic technics, and they're both so old! Key idea for me: What types of political arrangements does modern technology allow for? I find the whole discussion on tech characteristics and political form very generative (130-133)

Isn't this a major source of tension in academic departments in the US? I don't understand why salaries aren't standardized across years of service/ranking. I think it's a way to keep us in competition and break solidarity between faculty. and it works.
