Ulus-Devlet fikri ve Ulus-Devletler

Yazı Hannes Lacher ve Ellen Meiksins Wood arasında ulus- devletlerin kökeni hakkında ikibinli yılların başlarında yapılan bir tartışmaya katkı sunmak amacıyla yazılmıştır. Bu tartışmada Lacher ulus-devlet biçiminin kapitalizme içkin bir nedenselliği yoktur derken, Wood kapitalizmin neden yayıldığı her yerde ulus- devlet formunu da taşıdığının araştırılması gerektiğini söyler. Bu makalede devlet kuramının uzamsallaştırılması ve bu tartışmaya bir katkı olarak 'seçici geçirgenlik' kavramı önerilmektedir. Ulus-devletler emek ve sermaye hareketlerini düzenlerlerken her zaman sermayeye daha fazla hareketlilik sağlayacak düzenlemeler getirmişlerdir. Devlet tartışmalarında kapitalizmin uzamsal örgütlenmesinin daha fazla tartışılması gerekmektedir.

National-State idea and National-States

The article is written with an aim to contribute to the debate between Hannes Lacher and Ellen Meiksins Wood in early 2000s about the origin of nations- states. In this debate, while Lacher rejected any necessary connection between nation-state and capitalism, Meiksins asked why the spread of capitalism has always been accompanied by the proliferation of nation-states. This article argues that state theory needs to be spatially reworked. It also proposes the term "selective permeability" in order to highlight the link between nation-states and capitalism. Nation-states have institutionalized an order that provides more mobility to capital compared to labour under all circumstances. The article calls for more contributions to the analysis of spatial organization of capitalism.
