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 problematising space and scale. In recent years, however, globalization and the prominence of world cities and regions have shaken the foundations of contemporary social science and fostered a new interest in the concept of scale. "Leviathan Undone?" brings together leading theorists of scale and new scholars from a variety disciplines who develop a new language to discuss scale, space, and topology in critical political economy. By treating scale as an important form of spatialization - one that has its own contradictions and dynamics - the contributors bring a new sensibility to bear on classical and contemporary concerns in political economy, ranging from the role of the nation-state to social movement politics and aboriginal self-governance, from environmental concerns to urban development, and from public health to child care. "Leviathan Undone?" treats scale as a core concept for our time. It will be of interest to students and scholars of social science in general and politics, geography, and political economy in particular.
