The late great sociologist and political scientist Charles Tilly said that ‘war made the state and the state made war’. Fighting and winning wars was, he argued, a crucial part of the story of how modern states built their bureaucratic capacity and their ability to do all the things that we want states to do.  But this so-called ‘bellicist’ account of the origins of state capacity – seeing the modern state as rooted in war – does not go unchallenged. In particular, some critics see it as unduly Euro-centric and that it just doesn't work outside of Europe.  We are joined by Dr Luis Schenoni, who has just been promoted to Associate Professor in International Relations here at the UCL Department of Political Science and who is also Director of our Security Studies Programme. In his new book, due out in July this year, Luis challenges that alternative perspective. He argues that, even in Latin America, the bellicist theory – if properly understood – does a remarkably good job in explaining outcomes.    Mentioned in this episode: • Luis Schenoni.

Victory, Defeat, and the State in Nineteenth-Century Latin America.  (https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/bringing-war-back-in/849FF87CA1DC04EDE8657C90F00D9504)   UCL’s Department of Political Science and School of Public Policy (https://www.ucl.ac.uk/political-science/) offers a uniquely stimulating environment for the study of all fields of politics, including international relations, political theory, human rights, public policy-making and administration.

Keir Starmer’s first foreign policy move is to refocus UK-EU relations.

Sir Keir Starmer declared the UK was back playing a leading role on the world stage at the conclusion of his first international summit as prime minister. He said his government would “reset” the UK’s relationship with Europe, return to leadership on climate change and “engage more deeply” with developing countries in the southern hemisphere. Sir Keir’s comments came at the conclusion of Nato’s 75th anniversary summit in Washington DC, where the prime minister said the allies had united behind Ukraine and the idea that a Russian victory is “unthinkable”.

Keir Starmer and his new government must show the public they can deliver. Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2DHAQOeEg-Z-4trARDXHRA?sub_confirmation=1 Labour have inherited broken public services, a sputtering economy and a skeptical electorate. They have pledged to move fast and indeed Keir Starmer's early moves indicate a different type of government. But they will need to provide tangible improvements in order to carry public opinion with them. Andrew Marr joins Hannah Barnes and Freddie Hayward on the New Statesman podcast to discuss how Starmer is already pulling important levers of power - including harnessing the local authority of metro mayors and the devolved nations - to make early progress in his "decade of national renewal". They also discuss the election in France which saw progressive parties see off Marine Le Pen's right-wing National Rally - but will result in thorny coalition talks. How will this impact the UK?
