Coming and going: on the state monopolization of the legitimate (cid:862)mea(cid:374)s of mo(cid:448)e(cid:373)e(cid:374)t(cid:863) Karl marx intended to show that the process of capitalist development involved the expropriation of the means of production from workers by capitalists. This was because workers were prevented from the capacity to produce on their own and became dependent upon wages from their owners of the means of production for their survival. Max webber argued that a central feature ofhe modern experience was the successful expropriation of the means of violence from individuals by the state. A critical aspect of this process has been that people have also become dependent on states for the possession of an identity from which they cannot escape and which may significantly shape their access to various spaces. His argument bears strong similarities to that of john meyer when he addresses the delegitimation of organizational forms other than the nation state in the emerging world policy.
