Abstract

This thesis integrates an empirical examination of the evolution of State Agreements with theoretical perspectives in economic geography on processes of growth and crisis in capitalism, and its reproduction across geographic space. The political economy approach adopted is primarily based on regulation theory, integrating staple theory and other contemporary geographic perspectives into a combined conceptual framework. The focus is on exploring the relationship between the state and capital in the regional development of Western Australia between 1952 and 2012.
