Description

Book Synopsis
Employing the approaches of Gramsci and Foucault, Gran proposes a reconceptualisation of world history. He challenges the convention of relying on totalitarian or democratic functions of a particular state to explain relationships of authority and resistance in a number of national contexts.

Trade Review
This is a book that shakes up categories....Gran is most disconcerting in his choice of 'model' states--four type, each illustrated by a European and non-European instance. In the search to overcome Eurocentrism, Gran forces the reader to analyze unexpected similarities and contrasts. We may therefore learn something from him.
