This article reviews the use of the concepts of “the state,” “society” and “state-society” relations, by specifying the changing definitions, differing assumptions, and the variety of exogenous factors that were either included or mitigated in the various theories of international development. In this analysis, respectively, classical development theories, modernization perspective, dependency theory, world-system perspective, class-based development theories, neo-liberal theories, state-centered approaches, post-modern theories and globalizationist theories are considered and conceptualizations of state and society in each of these approaches are evaluated.
