Answer 1

Marxist political theorist Nicos Poulantzas advanced the concept of the relative autonomy of the state. This theory proposes that the state, though shaped by its economic base, retains some independence to act in the ruling class's interests. Poulantzas emphasized the state's role in mediating conflicts among ruling-class factions and implementing policies to stabilize capitalism. His work significantly contributed to neo-Marxist theories regarding the state's societal function.
