However, this notion does not do justice to the early history of states and their servants, and it obscures the role of women and gender entirely. Teasing out these entanglements, The state as master shows how early modern state formation was subsidized by ordinary people's work and how, at the same time, the changing relationship between state authorities and families shaped the understanding of work and gender. This book is both a fascinating story of the hardships of customs official families in small Swedish towns and an innovative analysis of state formation and its short- and long-term effects.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Law & PoliticsBook Series: Gender in HistoryTopic: Society & Culture, Gender Sex & Relationships, HistoryItem Width: 13mmItem Weight: 363gRelease Year: 2017 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
