The Cartographic State
Maps, Territory, and the Origins of Sovereignty
Today's maps are filled with uniform states separated by linear boundaries. This book examines the important but overlooked role of cartography in shaping the development of modern states. It explores how maps have altered concepts of political space, organization and authority, and transformed practices of internal rule and international interaction.
