High Justice

High Justice is a 1974 collection of science fiction short stories by American writer Jerry Pournelle. It was republished in an omnibus edition with Exiles to Glory in 2009 as Exile—and Glory. In the stories, Earth's civilization is about to collapse under the weight of its bureaucracies and political corruption, but a new spacefaring civilization is being built by determined, technologically-sophisticated multinational corporations. Each short story concerns itself with the problems facing large technological tasks in the near future. The protagonists are the agents of multinational corporations—engineers engaged in large scale projects and fixers who protect company interests and troubleshoot problems.
