We are grateful to Gerald Moore fo r his collaboration on the translations
and to Jason Weidemann fo r his support and patience as our editor. We also
thank Carrie Mullen, fo rmerly of the University ofMinnesota Press, for sup
porting an earlier version of this project many years ago. This book has its
distant origins in a special section of the
Antipode
journal, which we orga
nized in 2001. We are grateul to the journal's editors at that time, Jamie Peck
and Jane Wills, fo r encouraging our initial collaboration and fo r their edi
torial suggestions and support. Kanishka Goonewardena, Stefan Kipfer, Joe
Painter, and Nathan Sayre participated in the panel discussion «Lefebvre,
Politics, and the State" at the Association of American Geographers meet
ing in April 2005, which helped to situate and shape this project. The process
of tracking down and negotiating rights with French publishers has some
times been diicult, andwe are grateul to a number of riends and colleagues
fo r generously helping us in our eforts to navigate this task. These include
Vincent Berdoulay, Maurice Blanc, Sebastian Budgen, Nick Entrikin, Te rry
Freiberg, Remi Hess, Stephen Kalberg, Stefan Kipfer, Stathis Kouvelakis, Eliz
abeth Lebas, Dave McBride, Tr istan Palmer, Christian Schmid, Ellen Snooks,
and Lukasz Stanek. Reports fr om Stefan Kipfer and Nick Entrikin fo r the
publisher provided a number ofuseul suggestions. Finally, thanks are due to
David Madden fo r his careful work on the index.

HENRI LEFEBVRE'S STATE THEORY IN CONTEXTS
Commenting on thelong history of interpretations of Marx, Henri Lefebvre
wrote that "the correct line of thought is to situate the works and the theoreti
cal or political propositions within the global movement of the transformation
of the modern world."l It seems appropriate to view Lefebvre's own formi
dable)ntellectual and political legacy-whether in France, in the English
speaking world, or beyond-in directly analogous terms. Since the early 1970s,
when Anglo-American urbanists and geographers irst began to discuss and
appropriate Lefebvre's approach to urban spatiality, his many post-1968 writ
ings have inspired considerable debate and any number of critical appropri
ations in the English language. From those early discussions of Lefebvre's
urban theory through the critical engagements with his approach to socio
spatial theory during the 1980S, to the more recent appropriations of his work
in the context of debates on the condition of postmodernity, the body and
sexuality, everyday life, the production of scale, urban and antiglobalization
struggles, the transformation of citizenship, and the right to the city, Lefebvre's
writings have served as central reference points within a broad range of the
oretical and political projects.2 Clearly, this diversity of readings and appro
priations relects not only the extraordinary richness of Lefebvre's ideas, but
also the changing intellectual, political, and social contexts in which his work
has been read and debated during the last three and a half decades.
Yet, while most of Lefebvre's writings on cities and on sociospatial theory
have now been translated into English and extensively discussed, his equally
innovative works on state theory, the spatiality of modern statehood, and the
process of globalization have received much less attention. This neglect is
surprising on the one hand, for these are writings that explicitly develop,
complement, and critique his work on cities, the urban, and space; yet it is
