Abstract
This paper develops a Marxist conception of the role of state formation in the ‘politics of place’ under capitalism. It argues that struggles over state formation shape possibilities for political practice by creating particular terrains of conflict over policies and procedures, by determining terms of access to the state, and by influencing subjective experience of the state and political life. Examples from the author's research on conflicts over state regulation of community legal clinics in Ontario, Canada, are used to illustrate this approach.
