Description of
The Nomadic Leviathan: A Critique of the Sinocentric Paradigm (Inner Asia, 16)
9004543880 pdf The Nomadic Leviathan debunks as myth the most widely held theory of the origins and nature of the state, resurrects the conquest theory that places pastoralism and the Eurasian steppe at the origin of the state, and gives primacy to the political over the economic order.
