サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Traditional debates in political science about states and governments have focussed on fairly abstract definitions, usually starting from Max Weber's definition of the state as a “human community that (successfully) claims the monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force within a given territory.”
Paul suggests this is clearly inadequate to discussing modern states and in any case is a simplification of what Weber actually said.
Join us for what was, for me anyway, a fascinating discussion with one of the UK's top public policy academics.
