It scrutinises the \u0026amp;#x27;politics of circulation\u0026amp;#x27; between competing public administrations, which seek to generate revenue and to control infrastructures along major trade corridors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnecting classic debates on state formation with recent scholarship on logistics and cross-border trading, \u003ci\u003eTrade Makes States\u003c\/i\u003e argues that the facilitation and capture of commodity flows have been instrumental in making and unmaking states across the Somali territories. Aspiring state-builders are thus confronted with the challenge of governing the flow of goods in order to rule over lands and peoples.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe contributors to this volume draw attention to the ingenuities of transnational Somali markets, which often appear to be self-governed. Their dynamism and everyday administration by a host of actors provide important insights into contemporary state formation on the margins of global supply-chain capitalism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47932608315550,"sku":"ADS-9781787387058","price":44.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781787387058.jpg?v=1783086171","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781787387058","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
