TL;DR: Giddens considers that the Marxist and Liberal thought on the state coincide when they define it as a coordinating frame in which the economic relations develop, but that both of them lack a satisfactory treatment of the nation-state and nationalism as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: This article is the transcription of Anthony Giddens’s lecture in the Faculty of Economics in the University of Valencia, Spain, the 25th of September of 1985, published the same year in the journal DEBATS. Giddens considers that the Marxist and Liberal thought on the state coincide when they define it as a coordinating frame in which the economic relations develop, but that both of them lack a satisfactory treatment of the nation-state and nationalism. In consequence Giddens proposes different concepts for filling up this absence in the social theory.
