Historical Dynamics: Why States Rise and Fall - Princeton Studies in Complexity
Peter Turchin
Taking up the problem of territorial dynamics - why some polities at certain times expand and at other times contract - this book shows that a similar research program can advance our understanding of dynamical processes in history. It investigates the dynamics predicted by the models, and contrasts model predictions with empirical patterns.
