HISTORICAL OR EVOLUTIONARY
THEORY

the origin of the state are –Kinship ,
Religion and Political Consciousness.”
According to Prof. Gilchrist

5. Economic Warfare.
6. Political Consciousness.
Conclusion: In the end ,we can safely conclude that Historical or
Evolutionary theory is the most acceptable theory
about the origin of state . This theory tries to prove
that the state is not the result of any one single
factor and that it did not come into being all over the
globe at once and at the same time .
