This is an important point. It is often wrongly assumed that the only function of the welfare state is redistribution to the poor. It does do this, but its social insurance role does things markets alone just can't. Here's a good book by Barr on these roles

Case Studies This book by George and Bennett, published 20 years ago, made a big splash. It offers advice on how to conduct case studies and calls for the study of causal mechanisms through process tracing. Download: academia.edu/19264308/Case_…

Norbert Elias on state formation and civilization in Europe In his sweeping discussion of European history from about 800 AD to 1900 AD, Elias provides both a theory of the formation of the state and a theory of civilization. The Civilizing Process is Elias's greatest work.

Tilly on Inequality Tilly addresses a key question –Why do social inequalities arise and persist?– & puts the focus on four causal mechanisms: exploitation, opportunity hoarding, emulation & adaptation. It's a thought-provoking book. Read Chapter 1 here: people.duke.edu/~jmoody77/FacF…

Moore, Tilly and Mann as exemplars You can argue in various ways for a historical social science. But, as Kuhn said, exemplars that serve as models for how to do research are very influential. And these three books are exemplars that continue to inspire me.
