It plots the relationship between the spaces and places of 1970s Australian capitalism as it evolves through Ireland’s 1971 Miles Franklin prize-winning novel \u003ci\u003eThe Unknown Industrial Prisoner\u003c\/i\u003e. In particular, the book theorises the relationship between space and place in literature through two highly innovative arguments: a focus on the \u003ci\u003espatial unconscious\u003c\/i\u003e as a means to assess and track the spatiality of capitalism in the novel form; and the articulation of a \u003ci\u003eregime of space\u003c\/i\u003e through the perceived, conceived and lived constitution of space. Drawing together concepts from radical geography and structural Marxist literary theory, it explores the dominance of the regime of abstract space in the Australian context. The text also examines the nature and possibilities of place-based strategies of resistance, and concludes by suggesting opportunities for futureresearch and plotting the ways in which \u003ci\u003eThe Unknown Industrial Prisoner\u003c\/i\u003e continues to speak to contemporary Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBrett Heino\u003c\/b\u003e is a legal scholar and historian at the University of Technology Sydney, Australia.
