		<description><![CDATA[Are adverbial rules enough? Michael Oakeshott famously distinguished the character of a state, as opposed to an enterprise association, as something that derives from the imposition of adverbial constraints on action rather than the adoption of social goals. Oliver Letwin [explores] the extent to which this is, and the extent to which it is not, [...]]]></description>
