This broad ranging book covers the liberal democratic state and other, non-democratic state formations and offers chapters on each of the core theories of the modern state. Each chapter is structured in the same way to allow for ease of cross-referencing and for comparisons to be drawn between theories, with parts on Historical Context; Definition; Key Theorists and Practical Implications. The authors work on the premise that theory is relevant to everyday life, helping us to understand current political transitions and institutional formations and practices. Each chapter therefore illustrates how state theory has been deployed in recent historical contexts and policy initiatives, using examples to bring the theory to life.
