Stance, Lund University 2.06

STANCE is a research program at the Department of Political Science at Lund University in Sweden
funded by the Bank of Sweden Tercentenary Foundation (Riksbankens Jubileumsfond). The program is built on the following research question:
How did state-making and the international system co-evolve in the long 19th century (1789-1914) and beyond?

The program is constructed around three research themes: (1) How did the different dimensions of state-making evolve? What actors and organized interests supported or put up resistance to these processes?; (2) How were these dimensions of state-making affected by geopolitical competition, warfare and the diffusion of novel political technologies?; and (3) What were the consequences for the international system, both with respect to the type of state that emerged and what entities were granted membership in the state system?
