While Sparrow understands that state officials may be vulnerable to resources needed by the state but held by class forces, he does not consider the possibility that class forces may thereby be in a position to influence the direction of state-building. In addition, the related tensions of the state and class forces are conceptualized only in terms of organizational struggles for resources.

28. Skowronek discounts the role of class forces by arguing that “to concentrate on the external forces in the state-building process... is to leave the emergence of the new state overdetermined but little understood.” Skowronek proposes instead to treat “institutional development as a focus for analysis rather than as a mere epiphenomenon” of external forces (Building, 17, 18). But certainly this tends to set up a false dichotomy between analyzing external forces and institutional development. To investigate the interactions of state and class forces during institutional development is not ipso facto to reduce institutional change to external forces.
