State-centered theory (or state-centred theory) is a political theory which stresses the role of the government on civil society.[1] It holds that the state itself can structure political life to some degree independently of the way power is distributed between classes and other groups at a given time.

National policy makers interact with economy independently, with intention of raising social welfare. This gives legitimacy to market intervention.[2]
