The aim of the series, which comprises seven volumes, is to bring together specialists from different countries, who reinterpret from a comparative European perspective different aspects of the formation of the state over the long period from the beginning of the thirteenth to the end of the eighteenth century. One of the main achievements of the research programme has been to overcome the long-established historiographical tendency to regard states mainly from the viewpoint of their twentieth-century borders.
In the five hundred years covered by this volume there was scarcely a year that passed without either war or some demonstration of hostility between the many sovereign powers that governed Europe. This volume in the Origins of the Modern State in Europe series focuses on the crucial role of war in the formation of state systems.
