A musicologist I know who studies DIY nationalist music in a couple of countries: "it is as bad as you imagine it to be, even worse maybe" 🤣

We are grateful to the @bjsociology.bsky.social for the quick turn around and to the two reviewers they managed to secure. Their comments really helped us advance Michael Mann's approach to state-centric sociology as still being pertinent in a world where transnational forces are important 5/5

A timely finding in an era where institutions are attacked is states with Low Despotic/High Infrastructural power (nations we think of liberal or social democratic advanced industrial) have performed well thanks to their higher levels of wealth and the prior existence of health infrastructure 4/5

In our case we used Michael Mann's typologies of states in order to show that the type of rule states built using a mixture of despotic (power over someone) and infrastructural power (power through someone) predicted vaccination success independently of other pertinent variables 3/5.

Concepts of state power are hard to use in large sample quantitative research b/c states tackled various goals (e.g. development) at different historical conjunctures. COVID and the number of nations affected has allowed for using a theoretically informed measure of state power to gauge success 2/5.
