The state is central to social scientific and historical inquiry
today, reflecting its importance in domestic and international
affairs. States kill, coerce, fight, torture, and incarcerate, yet
they also nurture, protect, educate, redistribute, and invest. It
is precisely because of the complexity and wide-ranging impacts of
states that research on them has proliferated and diversified. Yet,
too many scholars inhabit separate academic silos, and theorizing
of states has become dispersed and disjointed. This book aims to
bridge some of the many gaps between scholarly endeavors, bringing
together scholars from a diverse array of disciplines and
perspectives who study states and empires. The book offers not only
a sample of cutting-edge research that can serve as models and
directions for future work, but an original conceptualization and
theorization of states, their origins and evolution, and their
effects.
