Ranging from discussions of re-territorialization, multiculturalism, ?digisporas? and transnational politics and ethics, to September 11th, the Pentagon?s New Map, American legislation on Chinese immigration, Gianni Amelio?s film Lamerica , Keith Piper?s online installations and Doris Salcedo?s Atrabiliarios , the collection aims to follow three different theoretical trajectories. First, it seeks to rethink our concepts of mobility in order to open them up to the complexity that structures the thoughts and practices of a global order. Second, it critically examines the privileged position of concepts and metaphors of mobility within postmodern theory. In juxtaposing conflictual theoretical formulations, the book sets out to present the competing responses that fuel academic debates around this issue. Finally, it evaluates the influence of our increasingly mobile conceptual frameworks and everyday experience on the redefinition of politics that is currently under way, especially in the context of Post-Marxist theory. Its hope is to contribute to the production of alternative political positions and practices that will address the conflicting desires for attachment and movement marking postmodernity. 410 0$aThamyris intersecting ;$vno. 12. 606 $aCulture and globalization 606 $aMetaphor 606 $aMovement, Psychology of 606 $aPlace (Philosophy) 606 $aPopulation geography$xPolitical aspects 606 $aPopulation geography 606 $aProcess philosophy 606 $aTransnationalism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCulture and globalization. 615 0$aMetaphor. 615 0$aMovement, Psychology of. 615 0$aPlace (Philosophy) 615 0$aPopulation geography$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aPopulation geography. 615 0$aProcess philosophy. 615 0$aTransnationalism. 676 $a320.01 701 $aMargaroni$b Maria$0885862 701 $aYiannopoulou$b Effie$0885863 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451464803321 996 $aMetaphoricity and the politics of mobility$91977974 997 $aUNINA
