Thanks to Broadstreet Blog for the opportunity to explain key implications of my book, Kings as Judges, for scholars working on Historical Political Economy (& beyond). Many assumptions in the field need to be inverted: we have typically projected outcomes back to origins.
Today in Broadstreet, @DBoucoyannis examines Medieval Institutions: How The Analysis of Origins Inverts Some Key Causal Models.

The honor of great company! Thank you @GerardoMunck.
My updated list of key works on state formation & building published since 2020. Who can doubt that this is an active, progressive research agenda? There is plenty here, with some old classics, for a full-semester course on the state. Full references in thread.

Thank you @laiabalcells! I could not have made the argument without the work of Catalan historians. Or historians in general! I hope they will find the comparative framework useful in showing up the precocity of the Catalan case.
Catalan historians should read this book.

And thank you @SLMazzuca for equally *amazing* comments--all the more coming from the person who has "delivered what Weber never did--an empirically convincing theory of state formation." So grateful!.
