World-Systems, Frontiers, and Ethnogenesis

Incorporation and Resistance to State Expansion

  • Chapter
Borderlines in a Globalized World

Part of the book series: Social Indicators Research Series ((SINS,volume 9))

Abstract

The expansion of the European world-system necessarily entailed incorporation of new areas and peoples. In the process it created borderlines, boundaries zones, or frontiers between its various components and the external world. World-system analysis, which was developed to explain the dynamic expansion of the European based modern world-system, has paid insufficient attention to how local forces and actors shape the process. In particular, the study of the roles of gender, race, ethnicity, and interactions with nonstate peoples have been somewhat neglected (K. Ward 1993; Hall 1989a, 1989b, 1996a, 1996b).

I have presented many parts and versions of this paper in a variety of venues: Political Economy of the World-System Roundtables at the American Sociological Association meetings in 1992, 1997; Association of American Geographers 1994; Social Science History meetings in 1995 and 1996; International Society for the Comparative Study of Civilizations in 1997; International Studies Association in 1997 and 1998; at the American History Association in 1998; and Political Economy of the World-System meeting 1998. I thank the many commentators, discussants, and listeners for useful comments. As always, they are not to be held accountable for my failures to heed their often sage advice. I would also like to thank the Faculty Development Committee and the John and Janice Fisher Fund for faculty development at DePauw University for support to attend these meetings. I wish to thank Regents of University of California to reproduce Figure 1 from my article with Christopher Chase-Dunn in American Indian and Culture Research Journal.
