Premodern states were at the apex of a stratified, hierarchical society. They dominated society and all its groups and strata. Modern polities have to be understood through the ecology of relations among different function systems. They have to find and incessantly redefine their place in society. They produce decisions that are collectively binding, but in preparing these decisions experience constraints and knowledge deficiencies that are related to the complexity of a functionally differentiated society. The book concentrates on six analytical perspectives that reflect how modern polities are embedded into 21st century society. These perspectives are: the concept of inclusion and the inclusion revolution constitutive of modern polities; the internal differentiation of polities that endows them with an unprecedented complexity; the fact that polities do not know anything about society and the ways in which they compensate for this; representation and responsiveness as strategies to reconnect with society; the self-restriction of some polities that brings about ever new autonomous expert organizations; the symmetrical rise of autocracies and democracies as the two modern variants of political regimes. 410 0$aGlobal Studies and Theory of Society 606 $aPolitical Inclusion; Internal Differentiation; Knowledge; Responsiveness; Functional Autonomy; Democracy; Autocracy; Globalization; Society; Politics; Sociological Theory; Sociology; Political Sociology; 610 $aAutocracy. 610 $aDemocracy. 610 $aFunctional Autonomy. 610 $aGlobalization. 610 $aInternal Differentiation. 610 $aKnowledge. 610 $aPolitical Sociology. 610 $aPolitics. 610 $aResponsiveness. 610 $aSociety. 610 $aSociological Theory. 610 $aSociology. 615 4$aPolitical Inclusion; Internal Differentiation; Knowledge; Responsiveness; Functional Autonomy; Democracy; Autocracy; Globalization; Society; Politics; Sociological Theory; Sociology; Political Sociology; 676 $a300 700 $aAhlers$b Anna L$pUniversita?t Bonn, Deutschland$4aut$0864201 702 $aKrichewsky$b Damien$pUniversita?t Bonn, Deutschland$4aut 702 $aMoser$b Evelyn$pUniversita?t Bonn, Deutschland$4aut 702 $aStichweh$b Rudolf$pUniversita?t Bonn, Deutschland$4aut 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996411336903316 996 $aDemocratic and Authoritarian Political Systems in 21st Century World Society$91928892 997 $aUNISA
