Summary, etc. | From Western Europe to Africa, many existing states are either combining into larger communities or falling apart. Many of their functions are being taken over by a variety of organizations which, whatever their precise nature, are not states. This book traces the development of the state from its beginnings in the simplest forms of political organization, to its highest development during the two word wars, and its subsequent decline from the 1970's onwards. Sohws also how the concept of a state spread from its origins in Western Europe to all parts of the world. |
