Whilst greatly valuing recent critiques of the vertical imaginary and reified ontology of scale theory, and of the unfettered flows of network theory, this paper argues against a human geography without scale. Rather, four propositions from the theor... Read More about Of scales, networks and assemblages: the League of Nations apparatus and the scalar sovereignty of the Government of India.
