国家治理的空间逻辑——现代国家领土观的政治地理学审视

The Spatial Logic of National Governance——A Political Geographic Review of the Modern National Territory Theory

领土是现代国家的一个重要构成要素,认识领土是认识现代国家的一个重要路径。作为一门以空间与权力视角探讨人地关系的学科,政治地理学在阐释现代国家的领土观上做出了重要贡献。政治地理学从物理空间、政治法律、文化观念等多维视角对领土的描述,深化了我们对现代国家属地性特征的认识。对领土之于现代国家意义的探讨,深化了我们对领土之于现代国家主权建构、国力竞争、象征认同的认识。对现代国家以武力获取领土行为的批判性审视,深化了我们对早期现代国家空间剥夺罪恶行为的反思。对现代国家以统一化、区域化、专业化的机制管理广袤领土的分析,深化了我们对现代国家治理策略的认识。
