Abstract
|
:
|
The state is frequently conceived as a universal, although one apparently extraordinarily difficult to define. It often appears in academic discourse and, especially, in the popular imagination as an abstraction, usually nebulous, grasped as pervasive - a spectre to be feared.

Taking an anthropological perspective based in diverse ethnographic contexts outside, or marginal to, Europe and North Ame.
