Description: By arguing that state power must be understood through its law and administration continuum, and that civil society must be understood through its administration by the state, this book offers an original and highly provocative contribution to social and political thought, challenging previous Marxist theories of the state and reasserting the importance of the state-civil society distinction to contemporary Marxism.
