Caught in the trap of the nation-state and frozen in postwar bloc
logic, critical political economy has been found wanting when it
comes to problematizing space and scale. Globalization and the rise
of world cities and regions have shaken the discipline's
foundations and fostered new interest in the concept of scale.
"Leviathan Undone?" brings together leading theorists and scholars
from a variety of disciplines to develop a new language to
understand the spatial restructuring that has accompanied
globalization. By treating scale as the core concept of our time,
these innovative, groundbreaking essays bring a new sensibility to
classical and contemporary concerns in Canadian and international
political economy.
