  • 13. This space is a construct comparable to other social constructs, arising from application of human labor.
  • 14. Then, the relationship between created organized space and other structures within a given mode of production becomes important.

  • 26. Late publication of Grundrisse which contained significant spatial analysis. Spatial limitation of capitalism was neglected since it was assumed that social revolution will come before the spatial limit is hit, and only the imperialist theories were recognized. The process of geographically uneven development was recognized and given due importance by neo-Marxist figures like Samir Amin, Emmanuel Wallerstein and others. Anti spatial traditions in western Marxism which developed to negate the Hegelian idea of history being directed by territorial entities. Space was merely seen as a product of economic process generated by human labor, which can be controlled. Increased role of space creation as compared to labor exploitation of Marx’s time.

Therefore the class struggle should incorporate production of space. The socio-spatial dialectic 10/11/2010 6:59 AM 7
