Question

Describe ralph miliband's view on the state

Answer 1

HEY FRIEND ANSWER IS........

Miliband’s The State in Capitalist Societywas first published in 1969 and was widely acclaimed as a major contribution to the revival of both state theory and Marxist political thought. The book still stands as a key work in the development of social and political theory after more than four decades since the book was first published.

 

As Miliband himself describes in the preface, ‘the book is concerned with the nature and role of the state in advanced capitalist societies’. The first introductory chapter of the book is mainly concerned with a survey of the major economic and social characteristics of advanced capitalist societies. The second chapter examines in greater detail the pattern of economic power which is to be found in them. And, the third chapter outlines the main institutions of the ‘state system’ and the social composition of the ‘state elite’. The book, in these three chapters (of which the review is being undertaken), tries to offer many important arguments, along with some excellent and interesting empirical facts, to the state debate. When we cannot ignore the increasing importance of the book, however, the arguments, concepts, ideas and facts as well as the methodology used need further re-examination and debate.

The opening sentence of Miliband’s book goes by famously saying that today we live in the shadow of the state and more than ever depends on the state’s sanction and support. Miliband continues to stress that, in today’s advanced capitalist society, state has become more and more powerful and its intervention in every aspect of life is enormously increasing
