Samenvatting	Fiscal sociology analysis treats taxation not as a narrow technical matter but as a window onto state-society relations and the formation of the state itself. The tradition descends from Joseph Schumpeter's 1918 essay The Crisis of the Tax State, with its dictum that the fiscal history of a people is above all an essential part of its general history, and from the historical-sociological work of Charles Tilly (1990) linking war, capital, and the building of European states. The New Fiscal Sociology of Martin, Mehrotra, and Prasad (2009) revived and reframed the field, arguing that taxes are social contracts as much as revenue instruments: how a state taxes reveals who holds power, what bargains bind rulers and ruled, and what the polity is capable of. The method reads the tax system as a record of social structure, conflict, and the reciprocal making of states and citizens.	State autonomy analysis treats the state not as a neutral arena or a simple instrument of the dominant class but as an organization with interests, capacities, and powers of its own. Crystallized in the 1985 volume Bringing the State Back In edited by Evans, Rueschemeyer, and Skocpol, and given a sharp conceptual edge by Michael Mann's 1984 distinction between despotic and infrastructural power, the framework asks two linked questions: how far can a state formulate goals independent of the preferences of dominant social classes (autonomy), and how effectively can it actually implement those goals across its territory (capacity)? The approach reoriented comparative political economy away from purely society-centered explanations.
