There is today a new interest in empires past and present. Scholars
seek fresh ways of understanding a form of power far older than the
modern nation state. Others see empire, not long ago assumed to be
a mode of governance on the way out, as having a surprising new
lease on life, and want to better understand the reasons why. This
volume focuses on the interconnected formations of patrimonialism,
colonialism/empire and capitalism. Leading scholars analyze
patrimonial politics in empires in regions throughout the world,
including the United States, Latin America, China, South Africa,
North Africa, West Africa, India, Australia, Malaysia, the
Philippines, and Indonesia. The articles show that patrimonial
practices, which often form the backbone of empire, are present
throughout history, including in global capitalist modernity. This
volume will appeal to students of politics, and to a
multidisciplinary scholarly audience in political sociology;
historical social science; history; social theory, and area
studies.
