Crane observes "a veritable chaos" in sources defining the concept of the state in constitutional and international law. This is the problem he addresses. After subjecting definitions of the state to a rigorous analysis he concludes that "the state as a constitutional concept is composed of elements different from those which make up the concept of the state in international law" 10. The rest of the book explores the significance of this distinction and its utility for political theory. unknown books
