The Narrow Corridor. How Nations Struggle For Liberty
By the authors of the international bestseller 'Why Nations Fail', based on decades of research, this powerful new big-picture framework explains how some countries develop towards and provide liberty while others fall to despotism, anarchy or asphyxiating norms — and explains how liberty can thrive despite new threats.
Liberty is hardly the 'natural' order of things; usually states have been either too weak to protect individuals or too strong for people to protect themselves from despotism. There is also a happy Western myth that where liberty exists, it's a steady state, arrived at by 'enlightenment'. But liberty emerges only when a delicate and incessant balance is struck between state and society — between elites and citizens. This struggle becomes self-reinforcing, inducing both state and society to develop a richer array of capacities, thus affecting the peacefulness of societies, the success of economies and how people experience their daily lives.Explaining this new framework through compelling stories from around the world, in history and from today — and through a single diagram on which the development of any state can be plotted — this masterpiece helps us understand the past and present, and analyse the future.SPECIFICATIONS:

Ultimately less expensive than cheaper brands. Works much better, too.
Color: Nordic Blue/Space Grey, Style: Miele Guard L1
Expensive but worth it. I used to buy Kenmore's like this and had to take them in every two years to get fixed. The vacuum guy in our town told me that I was wasting money because the Meile (Rhymes with Sheila he said) was so much sturdier and lasted so much longer. I bought the lower end Meile and have never gone back. That first model lasted 10 years with no problems and I traded it in for the model C. That has lasted 20 years and needed work as my kids weren't as respectful with it as they should. I just bought this newer model due to reviews and I am very satisfied. I was able to find a new model that had the box bumped and crumpled. The vacuum is completely fine. The suction is dreamy, the power cord that turns on the rug attachment is encased in the wand so dog hair doesn't get tangled in it. My single wish is that there were more metal parts as plastic ages and cracks. Metal would increase weight. My engineer husband is totally satisfied and looks for opportunities to vacuum. Hard to be mad about that! 😉

Nice Vacuum, But Had Odor
Color: Nordic Blue/Space Grey, Style: Miele Guard L1, Color: Nordic Blue/Space Grey, Style: Miele Guard L1
I can only offer one star for this review. The vacuum looks nice, comes with a hose, floor attachments and an extendable wand. However, it smelled really bad because it was full of debris. The bag has a nice flapper on the input port, which is good because otherwise all the debris would have come out in transit. The unit and floor attachments appear well built and are surprisingly light weight even when crammed full of hair. The color looked nice underneath the dirt in the plastic bag. Unfortunately, I did not get to use this one because the person before me already did --- extensively. I would rate higher if I did not have to return this one and try again for a new unit. Therefore too early to know if this can be recommended or not.

not recommended
Color: Nordic Blue/Space Grey, Style: Miele Guard L1
I would not recommend this vacuum. The hose does not swivel at the base so its in a knot.The handle does not have the power switch, not convenient.When you pull the power cord out the whole vacuum moves.For the price it feels cheap.

A Game Changer for Pet Hair Cleanup!
Color: Black, Size: L40 Ultra Gen 2, Color: Black, Size: L40 Ultra Gen 2
This robot vacuum and mop combo has been fabulous. We have a golden retriever that constantly keeps us on our toes with shedding and cleaning, but this has definitely helped cut down the time spent cleaning every day. The suction power is impressive, it does a great job on pet hair, and the mop feature is a huge bonus. I also love the self-emptying dock and app control — it makes everything so convenient. Definitely worth it for pet owners!
