The authors combine an excellent stateoftheart review of the literature in worldsystems analysis with a vigorous presentation of their own quite coherent views. This book is a major contribution to our collective dialogue on the past and the future.' Immanuel Wallerstein Binghamton University, author of The Modern WorldSystem 'An uptodate and synthetic overview of current worldsystems research. The authors draw on diverse literatures from political science to archaeology, from contemporary policy issues to Native American studies, and from history to sociology. This thoughtful volume serves as both a provocative summary of ongoing scholarship and a fertile foundation for future crossdisciplinary dialogue.' Gary M. Feinman University of WisconsinMadison 'To understand the evolution of the world's political economy, we need empirical theories that can handle 'ancient' and 'modern' processes, a longer time frame encompassing multiple millennia, and less concern about trespassing in other people's disciplines. ChaseDunn and Hall's new book, Rise and Demise, delivers all three with noteworthy style and effect.' William Thompson Indiana University 'Rise and Demise is a wide ranging and stimulating synthesis of the worldsystems approach and its main findings. Its broad coverage of parallel social processes in various regions and time periods convincingly makes the argument that worldsystems theory is able to integrate many diverse historical and social science specializations.' Richard E. Blanton Purdue University
