About this book

Globalization and changes to statehood challenge our understanding of space and territory. This book argues that we must understand that both the modern state and globalisation are based on a cartographic reality of space. In consequence, claims that globalization represents a spatial challenge to state territory are deeply problematic.

Reviews

'Jeppe Strandsbjerg offers a powerful challenge to International Relations, arguing that it needs to take far better account of the relations between state, space and territory, both historically and in the present moment. From discussions of Latour, to Danish cartographic practice in the sixteenth century, to debates about globalisation and the boundaries between disciplines, this is a broad-ranging and illuminating account that should be widely read.' - Stuart Elden, Professor of Political Geography, Durham University, UK
