Arising from renewed engagement with Charles Tilly's canonical work
on the relationship between war and state formation, this volume
situates Tilly's work in a broader theoretical landscape and brings
it into contemporary debates on state formation theory. Starting
with Tilly's famous dictum 'war made the state, and the state made
war', the book takes his claim further, examining it from a
philosophical, theoretical and conceptual view, and asking whether
it is applicable to non-European regions such as the Middle East,
South America and China. The authors question Tilly's narrow view
of the causal relationship between warfare and state-making, and
use a positive yet critical approach to suggest alternative ways to
explain how the state is formed. Readers will gain a comprehensive
view of the most recent developments in the literature on state
formation, as well as a more nuanced view of Charles Tilly's work.
