| Description |
Simon Dalby highlights the "metageography" —i.e., the spatial structure through which people order the world— underlying the current debate on the place of national state in the current global order and in our political imaginaries. Taking the example of the Cape Breton Mi'kmaq and their struggle against the exploitation of Klooscap Mountain, Dalby argues for a rethinking of the spatial concepts guiding contemporary struggle. The increasingly dense and rapid flows of capital and peoples that are a hallmark of modernity and capitalism and yet the importance of place-linked identities speak for the need for a multi-scalar—local, national and "global" —strategic horizon.
