What reading level is The Modern State in Relation to Society And the Individual book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Consider, further, that usually there are several companies contesting the same field of action in every branch of industry, and that thus it is very rare for them all to make the same mistake at once ; the very rivalry by which they are animated urges them not to pursue exactly the same methods, or to practice at the same moment the same course of procedure.
The State, on the contrary, can only act in one uniform manner, which necessarily intensifies, and THE MODERN STATE. 147 carries up to th
...e highest pitch, the infatuations, un- tamed impulses, and prepossessions to which the public mind is prone.
From the preceding explanations, it would seem that we can clearly deduce the following rules : By virtue of its superiority from the point of view of conception, invention, and aptitude for frequent modifications, or varied experiments, individual action should a priori be preferred to that of the State for all enterprises susceptible of remuneration.
This does not imply that the State should not con- trol certain great departments of service, such as the post and the telegraph, which, from the point of view of civilisation generally, it is desirable should em- brace the whole territory.
