«Recent events like the Covid-19 pandemic underline the importance of the state in contemporary politics. This text, drawing on the expertise of leading scholars, is an authoritative and indispensable source for understanding the theoretical debates and key issues in the study of the modern state.»
Andrew Gamble, Professor of Politics, University of Sheffield, UK
«A revised edition of this classic text has been long overdue and the editors and authors have not let us down. The State sheds new and penetrating light on a concept we all use, but struggle to pin down. It will be a welcome resource for students and scholars alike.»
