The Anthropology of Postindustrialism : Ethnographies of Disconnection Paperback / softback
Edited by Ismael Vaccaro, Krista Harper, Seth Murray
Part of the Routledge Studies in Anthropology series
Paperback / softback
Description
This volume explores how mechanisms of postindustrial capitalism affect places and people in peripheral regions and de-industrializing cities.
While studies of globalization tend to emphasize localities newly connected to global systems, this collection, in contrast, analyzes the disconnection of communities away from the market, presenting a range of ethnographic case studies that scrutinize the framework of this transformative process, analyzing new social formations that are emerging in the voids left behind by the de-industrialization, and introducing a discussion on the potential impacts of the current economic and ecological crises on the hyper-mobile model that has characterized this recent phase of global capitalism and spatially uneven development.
