pm.
Reception follows talk.
The inherited geographies/footprints of state power are undergoing fundamental rearrangement. In his seminar, Dr. Brenner will develop a novel interpretation of the transformation of the state and statehood under globalizing capitalism, arguing that subnational spaces such as cities and city-regions rather than global shifts are the essential areanas of state restructuring. The seminar will highlight key aspects in Dr. Brenner's book, New State Spaces: Urban Governance and the Rescaling of Statehood, Oxford Univ. Press (2004).
Co-Sponsors: The Poison Institute Working Group on Displacement; the Department of City and Regional Planning; and the Department of Landscape Architecture.
