In this synthetic, interdisciplinary work, Neil Brenner develops a
new interpretation of the transformation of statehood under
contemporary globalizing capitalism. Whereas most analysts of the
emergent, post-Westphalian world order have focused on
supranational and national institutional realignments, 'New State
Spaces' shows that strategic subnational spaces, such as cities and
city-regions, represent essential arenas in which states are being
transformed. Brenner traces the transformation of urban governance
in western Europe during the last four decades and, on this basis,
argues that inherited geographies of state power are being
fundamentally rescaled. Through a combination of theory
construction, historical analysis and cross-national case studies
of urban policy change, 'New State Spaces' provides an innovative
analysis of the new formations of state power that are currently
emerging. This is a mature and sophisticated analysis by a major
young scholar
