This is one of the classic texts of historical sociology and will be welcomed by all students of modern state formation. Corrigan and Sayer's illuminating analysis of the development of the English state from the eleventh to the late nineteenth centuries profoundly challenges conventional wisdoms, showing that state formation is cultural revolution, and moral regulation is fundamental to state power.

Social Forms/Human Capacities (RLE Social Theory): Essays in Authority and Difference (Routledge Library Editions: Social Theory)

This is an exhilarating book, written by one of sociology’s most imaginative theorists and critics. Professor Corrigan proceeds by turning old answers into new questions. He draws on a rich tradition of thought from sociology, philosophy, structuralism, post-structuralism, and literary criticism to explore major ongoing problems in everyday life: moral regulation, schooling, the capitalist world economy, intellectuals, and the problem of difference, masculinity. The result is one of the most dazzling contributions to critical sociology published in recent years.
