The essay explores the evolving understanding of state ethnographies, challenging traditional definitions by figures like Weber and examining the impact of globalization and transnational organizations on sovereignty. It highlights the shift from viewing the state as an abstract entity to recognizing its presence in everyday practices and resistance movements. By analyzing ethnographic case studies from various countries, the author investigates the interplay of power and resistance, emphasizing that where resistance exists, so too does the influence of the state.
