"David Sneath's The Headless State is a long-overdue challenge to the conventional picture of Inner Asian nomads divided up into kin-based 'tribes' and 'clans.' Classic histories and ethnographies are given a provocative new reading via an incisive history of social anthropological doctrines and dogmas. What emerges is both the centrality of the state in Inner Asia and the analytic dangers implicit in the state-society dichotomy. Boldly argued, The Headless State will place Inner Asia at the center of writing on state formation." -- Christopher P. Atwood, chair, Central Eurasian Studies Department, Indiana University
It's confusing at the first glance, but after re-reading it finally I found something ground-breaking.

评分really a confusing and hard-to-follow book which deals with anthropology, history and sociology, etc. A lot of modern theories. Nonetheless, the argument is really ground-breaking as people are always have some stereotypes about steppe people and their society.
评分作者不声不响的在回答为什么“我们”(欧美人)会走到研究内亚(甚至Afroeurasia)这一步,这个学术史的追溯至少能为全书带来四颗星,题目再给一颗,别的部分还没看希望能看完。。。
