The complex relationships between the state and nature remain under-theorized and relatively unexplored. Combining original research and theoretical insights The Nature of the State challenges the ways in which social scientists approach questions of socio-environmental power and offers new insights into the history of state-nature relations.

Dr Mark Whitehead's research focuses on the links between geography, philosophy and environmental politics. This has been explored through projects on interpreting environmental spaces like sustainable neighbourhoods, green cities and ecological regions from an explicitly geographical perspective, as well as more contemporary analyses of cyborg geographies and environmental discourse. Dr Rhys Jones's research focuses on the links between historical and political geography, particularly the geographies of the state and nationalism. Recent research has examined the placing and scaling of the nation and the long-term transformation of the British state and how this has been a 'peopled' phenomenon. Professor Martin Jones's research focuses on the links between economic and political geography. He is particularly interested in the geographies of contemporary state intervention through public policy, and the spatially selective political strategies associated with this. Has been awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize (2005): £50,000 over two years for his research into economic and political geography.
