Starship Troopers narra la formación de un soldado espacial y su aceptación final del darwinismo social en un proceso que implica la justificación del militarismo, del liberalismo más exacerbado y de un sistema político escasamente democrático en el cual sólo los veteranos, libres ya de un servicio militar que dura dos años, tienen derecho al voto y son considerados ciudadanos de pleno derecho.

@Sherlock_Homie_ Starship Troopers is a great novel. Lousy movie that was done as camp, but the book is really different and much better.      fuente
