Beschreibung

Nelson provides a historical overview of the theoretical and ideological evolution of the modern state, from pre-state and pre-modern state formations to the present. A major theme of the book is the need to understand the modern state holistically, as a totality of social, political, and ideological factors.

Über den Autor

BRIAN NELSON is Associate Professor of Political Science at Florida International University, USA.

Zusammenfassung

Survey approach - although the author is arguing a specific way of looking at theories of the state, he primarily provides an overview or survey of these theories, providing a useful text for courses looking at the state

Core topic in the field - the state and its formation play an important role in Politics as a whole but certainly with International Relations where it is one of the key issues discussed

Fills a gap - even with the importance of the state in Political Science, there are not many books that survey the different theories over time. Many focus on a specific theorist or school of thought, but this will be perhaps the only survey of the topic
