It is proposed to locate political geography within the holistic approach of political economy. The problem of defining the ‘political’ is seen as crucial for developing political geography and our conclusions point us away from recent excessive concentration upon the state. A geographical perspective is identified in terms of the three scales of analysis found in many current textbooks. The political and geographical are brought together in a political economy of scale where the world-economy is the scale of reality, the state and nation represent the scale of ideology and the city is the scale of experience. The materialist framework offered specifies these geographical scales as structurally related in the form of ideology separating experience from reality.
