A major trend in political and economic geography has been the increasingly sophisticated use of the concept of scale. In particular, globalization scholars have used it to look at the increasing interpretation of local, regional, national, and international scales, as evidenced by global city networks operating above nation states and the rise of the transnational (as opposed to the multinational) firm. This is the first book-length study of the role that subnational states play in the regulation of the global economy and as such, will be of great value to scholars of geography, international political economy and international relations. It sits squarely in geographical debates regarding scale and globalization, but unlike works written by geographers, Darel Paul also aims to reshape the political science subfield of international political economy. In particular, he argues for the importance of subnational states and localities in creating globalization, focusing on North America. Alongside his arguments about scaler transformations, Paul looks at how the processes serve transnatinal capital and how they work to construct the transnational capitalist class that currently rules the globe. His approach is 'regulationist', which stresses the centrality of state institutions in managing (i.e. 'regulating') the post-Fordist economy.
