Reviews
'In this deeply researched work, Wenkai He makes a major contribution to our understanding of state formation. Breaking new ground with a sweeping comparison of early modern England, Japan, and China, he shows how central the provision of public goods was to the process whereby states secured legitimacy, as well as to pre-democratic forms of political participation. This book will be of interest to scholars of contemporary state-society relations, as well as everyone interested in state formation.' Peter A. Hall, Krupp Foundation Professor of European Studies, Harvard University

Synopsis
How were state formation and early modern politics shaped by the state's proclaimed obligation to domestic welfare? Drawing on a wide range of historical scholarship and primary sources, this book demonstrates that a public interest-based discourse of state legitimation was common to early modern England, Japan, and China. This normative platform served as a shared basis on which state and society could negotiate and collaborate over how to attain good governance through providing public goods such as famine relief and infrastructural facilities. The terms of state legitimacy opened a limited yet significant political space for the ruled. Through petitioning and protests, subordinates could demand that the state fulfil its publicly proclaimed duty and redress welfare grievances. Conflicts among diverse dimensions of public interest mobilized cross-regional and cross-sectoral collective petitions; justified by the same norms of state legitimacy, these petitions called for fundamental political reforms and transformed the nature of politics., Safeguarding public interest was vital to early modern state legitimacy in Western Europe and East Asia. Wenkai He identifies similar patterns in state-society interactions surrounding public goods provision and explores how conflicts over public interest led to calls for fundamental political change and to modern representative politics.
