[PAR] [TLE] Monopoly on violence [SEP] The monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force, also known as the monopoly on violence (German: "Gewaltmonopol des Staates" ), is a core concept of modern public law, which goes back to Jean Bodin's 1576 work "Les Six livres de la République" and Thomas Hobbes' 1651 book "Leviathan".  As the defining conception of the state, it was first described in sociology by Max Weber in his essay "Politics as a Vocation" (1919).  Weber claims that the state is the "only human Gemeinschaft which lays claim to the monopoly on the legitimated use of physical force.  However, this monopoly is limited to a certain geographical area, and in fact this limitation to a particular area is one of the things that defines a state."  In other words, Weber describes the state as any organization that succeeds in holding the exclusive right to use, threaten, or authorize physical force against residents of its territory.  Such a monopoly, according to Weber, must occur via a process of legitimation. [PAR] [TLE] Max Weber [SEP] Maximilian Karl Emil "Max" Weber (] ; 21 April 1864 – 14 June 1920) was a German sociologist, philosopher, jurist, and political economist.  His ideas profoundly influenced social theory and social research.  Weber is often cited, with Émile Durkheim and Karl Marx, as among the three founders of sociology.  Weber was a key proponent of methodological antipositivism, arguing for the study of social action through interpretive (rather than purely empiricist) means, based on understanding the purpose and meaning that individuals attach to their own actions.  Unlike Durkheim, he did not believe in monocausality and rather proposed that for any outcome there can be multiple causes.
