    Ruling the country and in the country. On the process of state formation in early modern limes. For more than a decade, the new concept of "negotiating power" has been very popular when it comes to describing processes of statebuilding in early modern times. Schennach's contribution outlines the génesis of this theoretical concept inspired by research activities on early modern "good pólice" (guíe Policey), by discussions on the "myth" of absolutism and by "new" cultural history. The paper illustrates potentials and déficits of this approach by using the example of the so-called Kammerprokurator in the Austrian Hereditary Lands. It can be shown that the concept of "negotiating power" has its limits, tends to blend out the repressive aspects of ruling in early modern times. It can only be seen as complementary to works which analyse the development of administrad ve and constitutional structures in the long run.
