This paper intends to show a theoretical descriptive analysis of State, stressing on the ways how it fits into society as a whole, from a certain MarxistGramscian tradition's point of view. We shall use the space and field categories to lay out a conceptual net which responds to political complexities so that they will give us a framework to state the political residency space of political mega-structure in three different configurations: as an abstrael structure, as a region and as routes. The abstract structure is shown as a place (in Aristotelian sense) represented by political institutions; the region is organized in three types of society (civil, political and ordinary life) and routes are seen in so many ways as influences links among institutions and society types through a political awareness cycle.
This political residency space will become a mega-political range through social forces carried out by every social-political subject, who will try to gather round several positions arisen from the chance of deciding, commanding and empowerment. In the case of contemporary state-nation societies these subjects shall be the dominating social range or unpopular one and the dominated social range or popular one. Both ranges merge together to form a historical rank. This shall stay put by coercion or by cultural-political consensus. The latter will bring out three cultural fields: that of the dominance sectors, the dominated and the domination ones.
