State Theory and Andean Politics: New Approaches to the Study of Rule
Christopher Krupa
State Theory and Andean Politics explores the material and cultural processes by which states come to appear as real and tangible parts of everyday life in the Andes, showing the state to be one of many forces vying for a claim to legitimate domination in a highly contested political field.
Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.; In the last few decades, Andean states have seen major restructuring of the organisation, leadership and reach of their governments. With these political tremors come major aftershocks, regarding both definitions and expectations: What is a state? Who or what makes it up, and where does it reside? In what capacity can the state be expected to right wrongs, raise people up, protect them from harm, maintain order, or provide public services? What are its powers and responsibilities? This book attempts to answer these questions and more through an examination of the ongoing process of state-creation in Andean nations.
