It explains that territory consolidation refers to the process by which an emerging political center decides which regions to include within its jurisdiction and which to exclude. It also highlights the importance of state-formation in the capacity of territory consolidation, emphasizing it as the source of a modern country's political geography. The chapter considers “state building” as a new phrase for an old concept, which can be traced to Max Weber's original notion of bureaucratization and the transition from patrimonial rule to meritocratic administration. It cites Guillermo O'Donnell's work on Latin America, which argues that variations in state capacity across contemporary cases are as the variation experienced in the rise of modern western Europe.","PeriodicalId":227045,"journal":{"name":"Latecomer State Formation","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132787491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It talks about the four-month bargaining process between the leaders of Buenos Aires and the Confederación that resulted in the merger of the two states and the birth of Argentina. It also explains how the negotiations produced an irreversible change in the process of state-formation. The chapter emphasizes how the territory of Argentina would never again experiment with the loose confederations of minisovereignties that characterized the 1830s and 1840s or the duopoly Confederación versus Buenos Aires of the 1850s. It points out that the territory of the new state and the formula of territorial governance in Argentina has remained intact until today.","PeriodicalId":227045,"journal":{"name":"Latecomer State Formation","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129863564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It explains why the coalitions with actors from excluded regions are no longer possible once the territory of a state is consolidated. It also highlights how state-formation creates a monopoly, wherein the entire range of political strategies relying on violence is physically eliminated. The chapter highlights facts of state-formation in western Europe that support a strong division between the politics of state-formation and the politics of ordinary times. It explores the distinction between the extraordinary politics of state-formation and the ordinary politics of policy, government, and regime transformation in Latin America.","PeriodicalId":227045,"journal":{"name":"Latecomer State Formation","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132289816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It mentions the five caudillos who succeeded at state-formation that emerged in Latin America before 1850 and are considered a consequence of improvised methods of military mobilization against Iberian rule. It also explains how lords gained prominence in the diffusion of private armies as a consequence of the failure to form states by the first generation of postindependence rulers, such as Facundo Quiroga. The chapter compares state-making lords of Latin America to the western European warrior as state-formation agents. It clarifies how Latin American lords and western European warriors share the initial source of power that allowed them to launch their political careers, such as military capabilities.","PeriodicalId":227045,"journal":{"name":"Latecomer State Formation","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132700257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
