尼可罗·马基雅维利《君主论》· The Prince · 领导 · 财富 · 认知 · 行动

But in maintaining armed men there in place of colonies one spends much more, having to consume on the garrison all the income from the state, so that the acquisition turns into a loss, and many more are exasperated, because the whole state is injured; through the shifting of the garrison up and down all become acquainted with hardship, and all become hostile, and they are enemies who, whilst beaten on their own ground, are yet able to do hurt. For every reason, therefore, such guards are as useless as a colony is useful.

白话

马基雅维利认为,占领新领土后,用驻军代替殖民地是得不偿失的。维持驻军要花很多钱,把当地收入全耗在军费上,结果占领反而变成亏损;而且驻军到处流动,扰民太广,让整个地区的人都感到不便和敌意,树敌太多。这些敌人虽然被压着打,但熟悉本地,随时能造成伤害。所以驻军既费钱又招恨,不如建立殖民地划算。他的核心是:控制新地盘要算成本账,用少数移民扎根、分享利益,比派大批军队驻扎更可持续。

上下文

出自马基雅维利《君主论》第三章,讨论君主如何统治新征服的领土,比较驻军与殖民地的利弊。

你在管理新项目或新团队时,是选择派人“驻场”监控,还是培养本地骨干扎根?
