The World of States by John L Campbell and John A. Hall. 2015.

Published: 11 May 2015
by John L Campbell and听John A. Hall. 2015.
This topical book offers a historical account of state forms in the 21st century. It focuses on what makes states effective, thus offering a different approach to existing literature which has tended to focus on the predatory characteristics of states. The book covers all the major state forms of this century, from the US and EU to India and China, as well as a number of key 'failed' states, such as Iraq and Zimbabwe. Key definitions and terms are clearly explained throughout.听 Written by leading figures in the field, and addressing one of the key questions in politics today, this is a much-needed addition to the literature.
