Series: |
The Origins of the Modern State in Europe, 13th to 18th Centuries |
Pages: |
332 |
Description: |
This is a major study of the processes by which the modern European state came to exist. It is a historical analysis of power, and how over the last thousand years it has come to reside in the state and its instruments. |
Synopsis: |
The modern European state, defined by a continuous territory with a distinct borderline and complete external sovereignty, by the monopoly of every kind of legitimate use of force, and by a homogeneous mass of subjects each of whom has the same rights and duties, is the outcome of a thousand years of shifting political power and developing notions of the state. This major study, in the Origins of the Modern State in Europe series, sets out to examine the processes of state formation and the creation of power elites. A team of leading European historians explores the dominant institutions and ideologies of the past, and their role in the creation of the contemporary nation-state. |
