The Sovereign State and Its Competitors: An Analysis of Systems Change - Princeton Studies in International History and Politics
Hendrik Spruyt
Examining the competing institutions that arose during the decline of feudalism (among them urban leagues, independent communes, city states, and sovereign monarchies), this book disposes of the familiar claim that the superior size and war-making ability of the sovereign nation-state made it the natural successor to the feudal system.
