Throughout history, state has dominated state. Even in the New World Order of the post Cold War, the objective is mastery, not reciprocity. Mastering space maps new paths out of the tangle of international relations. By employing a geographical perspective, the book integrates the political and economic dimensions of global relations, and rediscovers the dynamism of international political economy. Tracing the evolution of the international economy since 1800,the authors question "state centredness" in the context of increasing economic globalisation and political fragmentation. Mastering Space addresses the changes in the organization of the world's political economy, and challenges the assumption that mastery of peoples and places is intrinsic to global development. John Agnew is a Professor of Geography at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs, Syracuse University. Stuart Corbridge is a lecturer in Geography at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of Sidney Sussex College.
