Medieval Law and the Foundations of the State [Repost]

Medieval Law and the Foundations of the State by Alan Harding
English | 1 Mar. 2002 | ISBN: 019821958X | 404 Pages | PDF | 1 MB

The state is the most powerful and contested of political ideas, loved for its promise of order but hated for its threat of coercion. In this broad-ranging new study, Alan Harding challenges the orthodoxy that there was no state in the Middle Ages, arguing instead that it was precisely then that the concept acquired its force.
