War and State Formation in Ancient China and Early Modern Europe

Beschreibung

There is a common belief that the system of sovereign territorial states and the roots of liberal democracy are unique to European civilization and alien to non-Western cultures. This book, first published in 2005, explains why China and Europe's development of state systems began similarly but experienced opposite outcomes.
