SUMMARY:The Pillars of Rules: The Writ of Dynasties and Nation-States in the Middle East and South Asia
DESCRIPTION:Max Weber famously argued that states lay claim to the monopoly
  of the legitimate use of violence over certain circumscribed territories. 
 However, historical and anthropological research has challenged his ideal-t
 ypical vision by showing how the idea of the unitary state is a fiction tha
 t can only be produced through the action of interrelated but partly autono
 mous agents. States, and the various institutions that constitute them, fac
 e the strategic task of identifying and domesticating the social networks t
 hat are necessary for them to secure control over particular territories an
 d their populations. Local strongmen and notables can in turn use their own
  local influence in order to gain recognition from higher-level, more power
 ful, state institutions. In this international conference, scholars from a 
 variety of disciplines will explore the ways in which dynastic power and/or
  the rule of the state is asserted, negotiated and contested across both th
 e Middle East and South Asia.\n\nOrt\n\nUniversität Zürich, Asien-Orient-In
