Recenzii
"Dmitry Shlapentokh's deliciously Hobbesian tour de force effectively challenges reigning views of the modern state as the product of ideology, discourse, rational choice, contingency, and institutional utility. And by taking crime, banditry, and violence seriously, Shlapentokh persuasively argues that societal disintegration gave rise to the 'strong repressive state,' which in turn enabled civil society and democracy to emerge. Everyone with a theory of the state should read this book." - Alexander J. Motyl, Professor of Political Science, Rutgers University - Newark
"This book examines the link between social disorder, revolution, totalitarianism, and restoration of 'the basic order.' Shalpentokh locates his historical causes not in socio-political conflicts, but rather in the associated behaviors that confront order itself. Shlapentokh asks the question: is post-totalitarianism to be our future? This is a provocative thesis and a challenge to the historicity of events, with political implications. This book promises controversy." - Claudio Sergio Nun Ingerflom, Director of Research, Centre National de Recherches Scientifiques, France
