Please, I don't understand the meaning, can you help me? to under this para:
"While the modern state is separated from society in respect of the emergence of a public power
from pre-existing patrimonial regimes, from an administrative or surveillance point of view,
pre-modern states and their rulers were far more separated from their societies than are their modern counterparts"
I don't understand this:
#Is the modern state more separated than patrimonial regimes but the modern state is not more separated from their societies than pre-modern?
For the administrators, this is not homework!! and this is not for a grade,Simply want to understand the meaning of the para because I can't understand the grammar here.
Thank you
