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. 606 $aConstitutional law$zCanada 607 $aCanada$xPolitics and government 615 0$aConstitutional law 676 $a320.971 701 $aMahon$b Rianne$f1948-$01618737 701 $aKeil$b Roger$f1957-$0275667 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823902603321 996 $aLeviathan undone$93964611 997 $aUNINA
