其实只看了Introduction用时间本身作为解释变量确实是挺有意义的做法
评分本周第二本书了
评分将老师的求同测异法和关键事件时间节点视角发展到极致并试图推展到中东欧,也使其摇摇欲坠。首先,三个看似相互独立的自变量中有两个似只是中介变量,地方自治形式(参与式和中心控制式)对国会组织是否独立发挥强大作用有重要影响(尤其是地域为基础之国会组织),而不同国家的这一状况,进一步发展出关键节点(地缘军事冲突)出现时统治者所能动用的国家组织资源形式。三者似乎是同一链条上的东西。其次也是因自变量不清导致自打嘴巴的惨剧:多个案例(英格兰、匈牙利、波兰)与双变量预测不符,只好匆匆引入国会强度并再次引用两组对比的时间点来救场,逻辑混乱,其实两个2X2表格根本塞不下详细的分类。再次,其实全书中心问题无非是国家(统治者)政权原则、稳定官僚系统和国会组织三者的关系,但太多笔墨浪费在边缘事件上反而模糊了这一核心。

Bio:
For as far back as I can remember, I have struggled to understand why Europe--and especially Germany--left the path of peace and prosperity after 1914 for that of war and genocide. While an undergraduate, I thought philosophy might throw some light on this problem, but I found its answers too abstract. It was the intellectual dynamism of historical sociology in the early 1980's, open as it was to the latest developments in history, social theory and political science, that persuaded me that I could best pursue this question further as a graduate student in sociology.

Taming the Leviathan: Building Democratic Nation-States in 19th and 20th Century Western Europe. (In Progress.)
For many years scholars have sought to explain why the European states which emerged in the period before the French Revolution developed along such different lines. Why did some become absolutist and others constitutionalist? What enabled some to develop bureaucratic administrative systems, while others remained dependent upon patrimonial practices? This book presents a new theory of state-building in medieval and early modern Europe. Ertman argues that two factors - the organisation of local government at the time of state formation and the timing of sustained geo-military competition - can explain most of the variation in political regimes and in state infrastructures found across the continent during the second half of the eighteenth century. Drawing on insights developed in historical sociology, comparative politics, and economic history, this book makes a compelling case for the value of interdisciplinary approaches to the study of political development.
梯利曾说,历史社会学的两大经典命题乃是资本主义的扩展和近代国家的生成。梯利用自己的若干煌煌巨著为后者提供了一个可以置信的解释:地缘政治的竞争格局引发欧洲国家连绵的战争,而筹措战争资源最终导致了现代意义上的国家机器的诞生,君主、政治精英和民众之间的妥协和斗争...
